It looks like the links to the pictures of my '92 with new mirrors have been lost so I will repost a few pics.

Here's what came with the bike when I bought it. The previous owner was 6' 4" and installed nylon spacers to bring the mirrors out wide so he could actually see something other than his own shoulders. Not the most elegant soultion.


Here are a few pics of the GSXR mirrors installed.

The CBR 250 mirrors are also quite wide.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

IMO the CBR1000/600/250 mirrors look and work the best on the '89/'90 models. They look and work as well on the '86/'87 models with the monkey made mirror wedges installed.

For the '91-'93 models, I like the look of the '90-'93 VFR750 mirrors. There is a YouTube video showing the install.

I'm not the fastest FJ rider, I am 'half-fast', the fastest slow guy....
