The bar ends that come with them are the same 7/8" as the handlebars all the way til they start the downward bend, so the clamps will work on the bars themselves, just had to slide the lever mounts in from the grips to leave a little gap for them.
Would those mirrors work on Pro Taper handlebars as well? They have the 1-1/8" taperwall, that's why I ask.
Yeah you're correct there, just did a bit more reading and the bar ends should be the same so I shouldn't have any problem. Just looking around now for some mirrors that I can mount on the inside on my bars rather than the ends (just in case I decide to buy some hand guards).
I don't understand how you did that? Did you buy a separate clamp or something to mount them that way? All the bar end mirrors I've looked as have the bolt on the end that slides into the bar end and then tightens it up. Am I missing something?? P.S. I never get tired of looking at your (almost) blacked out Husky
The bar ends insert into the bars and tighten down with a wedge nut. The mirrors then clamp onto the bar ends with a separate clamp. All you have to do is throw out the bar ends/bolts/nuts (or use them as bar sliders til you get your handguards) and mount the mirror clamp to the bars themselves instead.
God damn, that's too easy not to do! To Ebay I go, thanks! EDIT: Yes, I do see the clamp, and those clamps come with all bar end mirrors; correct?
Awesome, I'm going to have a look for some right now. I've read that many bar end mirrors vibrate pretty awful and make it hard to use them. I guess it will be kind of trial and error; good thing most of them are under $20 for the pair.
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/310648970192?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 Ended up ordering those mirrors earlier today, hoping they will work how I need them to. Thanks for the help again!
I would have ordered from amazon, but I don't have a credit card (weird eh?) so I wanted to order from somewhere I could use PayPal. I found a couple other sets on there for about the same price as these and free shipping; but they would have been coming from China and probably would have taken a month to get to me. As long as these work I have no problem paying a little extra!
Lost one of my stock mirrors in a tumble the other day and am looking at some stock KTM mirrors from the 690 Enduro. Any opinions out there?
I got mine here: http://www.moto-science.com/product/ktm-oem-folding-mirror-243-or-280mm I'm happy with them.
Been using these modified bicycle mirrors, they used to flop around, so I drilled out the center and put a piece of number 12 wire in it, pretty cheap, about $2.49 a side.
