VF1000R mirror alternatives

I have been looking for alternative mirrors for the 1000R's. For authenticiry I have a NOS set put aside for the 84 model, but for the 85 model I need something better than stock. Has anyone used the original Honda ones from a 86 VFR750F? They seem to be the same shape but a slightly longer arm (I might see more than my elbows then).

 

Good luck, the R mirrors have that stalk mounting which isn't easy to find. I used some aftermarket mirrors that needed some machining to mount up. I'm not sure the '86 are the same mount?

 

I picked up a couple of NOS VFR750 mirrors on Saturday and they will fit fine- slight diff but ok to install. They do have at least an inch more sideways length. Will post some comparison pics soon.

 

'86 VFR750F mirrors fit and look great.

 

Thanks for the photo captain. I looked at the vrf750 ones and the plastic aerodynamic shell looks to be the same part number (embossed underneath) as the 85 vf1000r euro ones.
