those should work just fine do the clutch side first so you get an idea of exactly how they work. Careful do not set that mirror collar right next to the throttle tube. You do not want the throttle to stick
I was searching ebay and found these. What do you think?

True with what Lesley says. I would like to add, the metal expanding anchors tend to slip and not tighten completely. I ended up changing them to the rubber kind.
I think these are the ones I have. Like sharur said they slip a little. Mostly right after I put them on. They stayed a little tighter after the anchors oxidized a little bit. One thing I'm not real happy with is that I think it may be harder for me to put on wind deflectors with this style.
This is for real. I've crashed because of that.You do not want the throttle to stick
Those mirrors look good by the way! :)
I bought my 2" blindspot mirrors direct from CRG direct. heres a link http://www.constructorsrg.com/or any others one would suggest.
Mine were $49.99 a pc and I love them. I know they are probably too small for DOT standards but I think they look good. Sorry the pic isn't better but you can get an idea of the size
@mojo. I bought the exact same mirrors from ebay and the mirror housing started loosening up from the arm. There are 2 screws that hold the two pieces together, I guess the vibration loosened them up only after a couple of rides. They are impossible to retighten too because the heads of the screws are under the mirror itself. I tried to remove the mirror but ended up chipping it up.
So, I went with CRG BS mirrors as Lesley did. They are awesome, have been on for about a year and no issues whatsoever. I can see better through the 2 inch mirrors than the oems. No vibration and excellent construction. It's true that you get what you pay for.
Thanks for the input. Ill pass on theebay ones and go with the ones you suggested. This is what I was looking for. Great info.

went to order these today... Do i need to get the bar end adapters as well?
I have had those exact ebay mirrors and they sucked. One of them broke after a year or so just from vibration!
I just replaced them with another ebay mirror that is far better quality and do not shake any and are locked into place.
