    Anyone found any decent replacement mirrors for a 2019 Thruxton 1200 R?

    I've lived with the factory standard ones for three years now and they are fine... until you wanna filter through traffic. Then they add 7 inches over the width of the bars themselves - *SEVEN*! Seven inches can make all the difference - just ask your lady ;-) The outside of the Thruxton mirrors are three inches further apart than on my Fazer 1000. I'm using the Thruxton every day to commute to work now and sometimes there's a gap that a bike should be able to get through but I can't with those mirrors poking out.

    So I'm interested in ditching the bar-end mirrors and going for something else - traditional bar-mounted or whatever. Basically, whatever will reduce the overall width to make filtering possible when I want to.

    I've seen these from Motea, anyone tried them?:

    Or maybe I should go with this adapter from Classic Bike Raisch so I can mount whatever I like:

    Any other solutions?

    Cheers,

    Thanks for the links, I’m also not a fan of the width the bar end mirrors add to the Thruxton R.

    Hmmm, well, what I can tell you that they don't fit the 2019 Thruxton R...
    I'll let you know what they say...
