    Hi all,
    have on order a street twin, which will be ready at the end of the month. Im pondering over the triumph bar end mirrors, or alternative after market bar end mirrors. The triumph mirrors are pricey, 70 quid for one on the configurator!
    So does anyone have any recommendations for decent looking bar end mirrors to suit the street twin please.

    Hi and welcome, you will love your street twin. What colour did you go for? Like many I find the mirrors a little disappointing, but have yet to take the plunge and change them...

    Hi John. Oxford bar end mirrors work for me on my Bonnie and my Street Twin (photos in my gallery). About £25 from the likes of J&S, or under £20 on ebay. The standard stalk-mirrors on the Twin are merely decorative.

    Hi, thanks. I have opted for the jet black. Have an Omega Rocker seat en-route, in dark brown, with diamond pattern stitching. Will fit TEC bike parts slip ons and x-pipe. Ill get it and drive it a wee while with the standards first though

    Nice mods you are considering. I've had mine for about 6 months and I will be adding the TEC rear suspension and slip-on exhaust in June to go with the small screen, bottom engine protector, heated grips and rear rack that I had put on when it was delivered. Cheers

    The bar end mirrors from the Street Cup are fabulous.

    I bought the Triumph bar end mirrors for my Bonnie and they are excellent but cost £95 for the pair. The part number is A9638056

    Oddly enough these come as a pair but they also sell a single one for the off side and that's £95 as well, makes no sense.

    Welcome to the forum John.
    3 Pistons mirrors look good as well.
    Still got the OEM mirrors on my Bonnie, but I may change at some time, I just hate discarding 'as new' items.
