Calling all 5th Genners (Mirror Question)

I have a 1999 5th Gen looking to upgrade my mirrors as I have to replace my old ones and upper cowl, do to an accident!

So here is my question will 2002 to 2004 VFR 800 mirrors be compatible to fit on my 1999 VFR 800?

Any thoughts or answers to this question!

Thanks for the input as I studied pictures and just figured it might work as I have looked at the Y2K ones and also the TARGAS. Have you heard any good or bad things about them, but as for your Y2K's how long have you had them and how do you like them?

 

I upgraded my 1999 to 2000 spec mirrors as the rubber boot cover thingies on the stalk of the mirror looked decidedly low rent especially given the quality of the rest of the machine.

I have not been disappointed. They are well designed, look good, afford me great visibility. I haven't had issues with them being too short but I am pretty thin.

Overall, they are a great upgrade. They are pricey. I bought them from servicehonda.com and think they ran about $60/side if I remember correctly.

I am sure there are cheaper alternatives but even though they weren't original to the bike, I wanted OEM parts to keep it as original as possible.

You could see them on my bike in my gallery.

 

My y2k came stock on my y2k and I have no complaints.

 

I've been planning on changing out my 1999 mirrors to the Y2K mirrors, is it a straight swap or is there additional hardware required? The Y2K's look great.

 

Do the y2k mirrors extend any wider or same as the condoms?
