Title: Mirrors
Post by: chapindad on June 28, 2011, 09:06:33 AM

I need to replace, at least my left mirror.  Has anyone tried these:

I should not be such a cheap @$$ and just try them but it is against my nature.

The fact that they list it as for '84 thru '96, and "handlebar mounted" gives one pause, doesn't it?        :scratch_one-s_head:

Exactly what I thought.  Which is why the $9.99 is a big deal to me.

I used the CBR 600 mod in the files section.  I think these are tho one that I bought.  Heap Cheap.

Emigo and all factory knock off mirrors are crap.
Save some grief, spend a bit more, and buy oem factory Yamaha (or Honda CBR) mirrors, you will thank me later....

As others have said, Emgo is shitty. The part # listed would seem to be for 84-85 bar mounted mirrors, I found several images to support that. If you gotta have it,
(sh)it's cheaper here-http://www.powersportsuperstore.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=4146288&Click=35177 (http://www.powersportsuperstore.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=4146288&Click=35177)
