    Yep Clive. Best mod for the Meteor too. Great rear view on each side, don't vibrate and look smarter than the plastic OEM mirrors.
    A must have IMO. For the safety benefit alone !
    Nice job, love to Budders !

    I have never tried bar end mirrors. Allways felt they stick out, and bit.
    But, they don’t half look great. Keep up the good work😊

    Yup looks reeeel good 👍 Was the first mod I made on my yellow fireball. Picked up some with gold anodized aluminum to match the yellow.😎 I might rotate the end caps on yours to have the RE right side up. 😉 Cheers mate🍻

    Nice ABD. I would quite like Halcyon bar ends on Clementine, but I rely too much on the mirrors to see what my vlogging camera is doing. Something which wouldn’t be practical with bar ends. Looks good.

    Hiya clive, I was expecting a kilo of Colombian marching powder to appear out of that package! 😳 the bar end mirrors look stunning and really enhance the look of the Super Meteor! Anyway, enough about the bike, tell us about that big red beast of a truck in the background! 😍😍 😁👍🏻

      G’day Dave, I was expecting the packages to have little incisions in them from customs 😂

      ​@@aussiebikerdude6563the wife and I took our Crossrunners for a run over to Mt Gambier, summer so we dressed appropriately. The run took us through the very scenic Snowy Mountains, wildflowers in bloom etc. Except that a cold front moved through on our way. We rode through snow, thank goodness the traction control worked. And the heated grips although not great did keep our hands working. Stuff you can't plan for!

    Always wondered whether bar end mirrors, being lower than Micky Mouse mirrors, means you have to look down more than with the MM mirrors. Be interested to hear what you think after road testing them.

      It's not great and randomly disconnects. The clock is handy and easier to read than the one next to the speedo. A tacko there would have been my preference.
