    Hi guys,

    I decided to really start installing mods this year, tried some custom grips, now's the time for some bar end mirrors...

    Any recommendations?

    Thanks for all your recos, I think from one link to another, I found some I like. I suppose "universal" and "BennEville" ( :p ) means they will fit my bars...

    Be aware that if you have after market aluminium bars like Renthals or LSL they have a smaller inside diameter than the standard steel items due to the wall thickness.

    Therefore things like bar end mirrors and bar weights that fit internally and are OK for the originals will not fit the alloy bars.

    Just thought I'd mention it, it may help.

    What I did on my 2013 Speed Triple. I purchased mirrors and handlebar for the 2016. Had to drill a couple tiny holes to accommodate my switch gear but it worked fantastic.
    Later traded for a 2016 and kept all the parts.
    I’d consider selling if I found the right buyer.

    I had a pair of cheap fleabay bar end mirrors on my T100. They were actually fine but a little smaller than I would have liked. I thought I'd see how I liked the concept before spending more than a tenner for a pair :eek:

    I decided that I liked 'em better than the standard mirrors and bought a pair of the Triumph ones.

    Much clearer optically, the cheap ones were a little distorted but at the price what do you expect.
