www.darkhorsemoto.com sells a set as well. They are a plain plate instead of the pegasus.

Both are known to be great quality.

I took my mirrors off and I had extreme just fill them in with I believe is epoxy. I dont plan on putting mirrors back on so it works of me plus it was cheap.

Just for those that may view this thread in the future, Americansportbike has the block off plates for around $60.00. Still expensive, but they are available.

I bought a set of block offs for an R1 during the d2moto 40 off sale. The mounting holes are the same.

I took a belt sander and ground out the R1 engraving. I had them powdercoated black.

They are a little bigger than the bulge of the front fairing around the mirrors; but I like keeping $55 in my pocket
