    So I finally pulled the trigger and "bought it now" on a pair of chinese mirrors off ebay to replace these bar end mirrors the previous owner has on the bike.

    Anyway the item discription specifically said "Mirrors, Black VFR800 - 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07 ,08 ,09." Shipping was fast from Hong Kong, only 6 days when they finally got here through USPS. I open the box to find what looks to be CBR F4i mirrors I'm guessing.. The mounts fit the holes on the VFR, but they have too much of an angle there at the mounting base and the arm is about an inch shorter than the OEM mirror. When mounted, the pivot at the mirror does not have enough play for the glass to be horizontal to the ground.

    I'm currently trying to get a hold of them through "contact seller" on ebay to see about a refund.

    I should have just hit up bike bandit or something from the start and ordered the on right side mirror that I actually needed, but the cost of half price of bike bandit for both mirrors was too tempting. Hopefully I'll get my $48 back.

    Guess I learned my lesson on this one.
