Which Mirrors?

[GlenM]

Hi all,
Been looking on the bay and found two different types, which ones should I go for?

I've got the original tuonos. I also got mine from rocket centre on eBay.

I think they might give a discount to forum users if you call them up ;) (but I didn't bother)

I ordered the Tuono ones you have linked. These come from the Rocket Centre at Blackburn. Be patient because they do put them on for £29 free delivery. Take 5 mins to fit, I didn't need the extensions and the view is far better than the Suzuki Oem ones

I got the cheap ones (being a Yorkshireman), decent quality for the price and they work perfectly well.  

I already had extenders on the originals which I kept in place with the new ones.

I got the cheap ones and they seem good quality ..

Good thread. I was considering these, free shipping to the UK and only 20 quid the pair. I read a review on a forum elsewhere, though I can't remember which forum. The buyer seemed happy with them.

I like the look of those glenbee, be sure to post a review if you get a pair.  

[glenbee]

Will do

I got the ones from Rocket Centre. Good people to deal with, and the mirrors are good quality. Don't skimp on accessories on the best bike out there.

Thanks for the reply's,
Mirrors now ordered  

[glenbee]

Now ordered, delivery looks like it may take up to 28 days though. No rush then!

Mirrors arrived yet mate?

Blackburn Ebay listing still has them up at £35, while the other Ebay listing for UK distributor has them up at £19.50 with £52.99 Economy Delivery Charge!!      
 :wtf:

[glenbee]

Not yet. It said delivery was "up to 28 days".

[glenbee]

£50 for delivery??? Am I reading that right? Sounds like daylight robbery!

[jimbo8098]

It is , but they will have caught people out by charging like that and putting the item price low but delivery price high.

[glenbee]

Very true Jimbo.
My china special mirrors arrived today. I will fit them at the weekend, take and post some pics. And if the weather is vaguely decent, do a test ride and post the results here.

[user650]

Ordered mine off the first link only paid 2.99 delivery and they came within 4 days, but yes now 52.99 del strange???

[glenbee]

I received my chinese import mirrors within about 3 weeks, but it took me a few months to get around to fitting them. They seem to make little difference to the buffeting, and are smaller than the stock mirrors, reducing visibility of stuff behind you. Build quality is okay, and they are shaped well on the back of each mirror, so they look like they ought to be more aerodynamic than stock.

Conclusion: Go with the Aprilla mirrors
