Has anyone tried any aftermarket mirrors on their firebolt? I've exchanged emails with the guys at PJ's parts but was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions.

I put the bar-end mirrors (and block-off plates for where the old mirrors were) from American Sportbike. They bolted right up, have a better view and seem to vibrate less than the stockers.

Supposedly these Pig spotter mirrors work on Firebolts. I have never seen them first hand but they look pretty sweet and you basically delete your mirrors, but still be legal. I tried to post the URL for them but it wont let me. Just go to eBay and search for Pig Spotter Mirrors.

I am thinking the Mirrors from the new 1125R will fit the xb models and will wire up to replace existing turn signals. I think it will look pretty good, I plan on checking it out before the new year and if it works I will post some pics.

I also just put bar end mirrors on my xb9-r,better view and a bit more room when splitting lanes in traffic.Stock mirrors always seem to be same height as cars are. Mirrors are CRG and $69 on Ebay.
