Turn signal mirrors from eBay on a 5th Gen.

I recently got mirrors with turn signals from eBay. Same ones Tink is using on his bike, I believe. At first glance, they seem pretty nice for the price. Not as heavy grade materials as Honda uses but what do you want for $46 a pair. They use one size fits all slots instead of a fixed hole so mounting is easy. I'll post a pic when I'm done.

Here is a pic for comparison to the stockers.

 

They look great but what do you do to cover the hole left by the old turn signals.

 

They fit fine. I even used the rubber insulation that goes between the original mirrors and the cowl, though I did have to trim it a bit. The big difference is that the OE mirrors have a sort of oval base and the aftermarket ones are squared off.

 

I'm wondering the same thing..

 

Oh, THAT hole! You'll all have to wait for the Grand Unveiling to find out the answer....!!! Air scoops for ram induction? New fangled frame sliders? Air foils for lift or down force? Dispenser hole for tissues? (I have allergies. Ever have a sneezing fit in a FF helmet?) Gun ports?

This project is more top secret than the Stealth Bomber.

 

:chaingun:
I second the gun ports..

 

All I will say is that the results will be described by some as breath taking, unconventional, or even sacrilegous.

 

Stash box for items of questionable legality? The place where the uranium fuel rods go?

 

The possibilities are endless!
