New ZX10 mirrors

Post by BlackRabbit »

Just thought I'd post a couple of pics of my new Puig mirrors on the ZX. I reckon they look pretty trick compared to the standard dungers. Side note. I can't actually see shit out of them as at full adjustment they point out at 20 degrees. I can see the other lanes but no chance of seeing what's behind me.

Does any one on here doing an aluminum milling. Thinking about a wedge spacer underneath the mirrors to point them in a bit

Cheers

the problem will always be the width of your shoulders/elbows/waist compared to the spacing of the mirrors. wedging them will only make them face you more, defeating the purpose.

the only fix is either get thinner (like the spanish jockey size) or push the mirrors out further, which means extenders; either longer arms or spacers under the mounting to the fairing.
