Can anyone point me in the direction via a link to some decent priced mirror extenders for my 2019 Veek.

Have you perhaps upgraded your ride since last updating your profile? I noticed that you were asking for mirror extenders for a L9 while your profile shows L6. Not serious, only an observation. Don't think that there will a difference to mirror extenders. They should be able to fit the same for both year models.

Thanks gents  :thumb: Duly ordered, and "Gert" I've updated my profile to the appropriate year, and hopefully for the last time!

Arrived today and look top quality thanks for the input gents, these are the ones I plumped for, nicely machined and top quality threads and the bolts don't look like their made of Toffee.

Do post some feedback, after your test ride, by letting us know how these work out for you.

I am not the OP but I have fitted very similar to my DL650. The mirrors as standard are very good though some have problems with buffeting said to be caused by them. The small improvement I wanted was from my nearside mirror which gave slightly more view of my elbow than the offside which was perfect.

I have to say that the extenders made an improvement and my rear view is now perfect and for such a small cost. I would recommend this small improvement to anybody but don't expect it to be massive because those Suzuki mirrors a very good as standard.
