Anyone have a suggestion for rear view mirrors?

I just bought a 1998 VTR 1000F and, for some reason, it has no rear view mirrors. Honda wants $100 EACH for new ones and that's just not gonna happen.

Any suggestion on finding mirrors considering that the mount was, as far as I know, only used on the 98-05 VTR 1000F?

3'' diameter bar end mirrors made by CRG are pretty cool thats what I run. It takes some time to get use to but they are better then stock and cheaper to.

get one of those back up camera kits for a car and mount the screen in the dash area. ... on a more serious note I would keep an eye on ebay for used ones if you want to keep stock ones on there.

I went to ebay and bought a set of mirrors with the intergraded turn signals for $50 + shipping. They look very good and allowed me to eliminate my rashed front turns.

Do you remember who sold them? An Ebay store?
