Mirror recommendations please for L8 Vstrom 1000 XT
« on: October 04, 2023, 19:05:07 »
I really like the visibility of the standard mirrors but they look and act like a wind sail so was thinking of getting ones that have better aerodynamics, bit smaller and better looking. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?  :ty:

I have used the Aprilia Tuono mirrors on a lot of bikes including the three V-stroms I have had.
They work well with some mirror extensions. When I first started using them in 2006 on a zed 1000 they were £12 but they have gone up a bit from then but still a good mirror for the price.

Fit a pair of Tuono mirrors and you'll never look back. Erm...
