    Every aftermarket mirror I've see is of mediocre quality (at best). I do not have experience w/ that particular model though. I'd def. ask the seller about return policy before buying.

    I did a custom turn signal mirror on another bike using factory mirrors from a '07 GSXR. Quality is usually better from an OEM part.

    Any Idea where the wires run to and are they exposed?

    Those look kind of cheesy to me. I have them stock on my 06 GSXR 750 and love them. I still don't know why everyone dosen't use them along with the stubby exhaust. Those two things make a lot of sense to me. Keep the blinkers where people can see them and put the exhaust down low where it should be.

    I purchased a pair of aftermarket mirrors with indicators from ebay. The same ones you see from all the manufacturers. I had to crazy glue the mirror pivot because they kept moving downward so i would only see pavement. That fixed the problem but now i realize they are very buzzy. Personally i'm looking to replace them or figure out a solution on how to fix them. But they do look good, but i couldn't see the cop on my ass when he pulled me over.

    Go to VFRD and do a search for mirrors. They did a group thing with both aftermarket and GSXR mirrors with extenders. Looked good.

    Most of the aftermarket mirrors not specifically made for our bikes have arms that are too short so the mirrors have very bad rearward visibility, unless you like to look at your elbows or shoulders. Ive have found that majority of them on ebay are universal or made for a CBR f4i so they are too short to be really usable. Id stick with the factory mirrors IMO, i find them to be alot better then the shit mirrors on my 08 gixxer.

    The same thing happened to me with my factory mirrors when my dumb ass over sprayed some Honda polish wax on the pivot area and it made the ball joint kinda slippery, so now each 50 miles or so it moves to another position from the vibrations/wind. Im just not ready to spend $60-70 each on new mirrors until they are actually really broken.
