Hey, I bought a set of these mirror extenders from you a few years ago. They worked great.

Looks like the GenMar ones I have... not a bad price for these from what I recall paying for the GenMars.

They don't look half bad, and are a good price, but I think it's kinda odd looking. Maybe if they had flared out to incorporate Honda's mounting block portion, or whatever you want to call that nub...I dunno. Good job though

Those look nice, i used a set similar to those on a friends VTR and he liked them a lot.
I tried to find some of the ones i got years ago from a fellow RLZ lister. He made 10 or 20 sets of these. They are Black anodized machined aluminum and bolt to the original base mount and then the mirror stalk bolts to the extender peice. Makes the whole setup look factory.

Shame he didn't go into business making these or leave us the machine drawings

Thanks for the orders you guys.

I'm sure you will all love the improvement these will make to your everyday riding. I myself was surprised at what a difference they make on the VTR compared to the other bikes I make these for.

Cheers,

Barna

The photo posted by Rick above is a design that an old RunLevelZero member had made. I have a set as well. I have attempted to contact this member to acquire the design specifications. More to follow.

Here are a couple of pictures of rrbarna's mirror extenders that I put on my bike today. The mirrors on the bike are EMGO F4i style.

Man, I've been waiting a long time for Mirror extenders. My handlebar mirrror has gotten me pulled over more times than I would like to be. I'll have to get a pair if you guys say they work. After riding HawkRiders bike at the rally last year I've been wanting a set.

You meant Thumper didn't you. I too looked for his contact info, but it long gone from my paperwork.

I bought a similar design from a company in England for my Girl's SV650S. They are designed is alot like the Runlevelzero design from years ago, but not as nice and clean.

Wink just a suggestion...

... with only 3 posts total here, I'm guessing he doesn't check in very often on the forum; try asking this question with the ebay message system on the item.

So Patrick... You bought his mirror extenders for the F4i and put F4i mirrors on the Super Hawk?

They looked really good. How's the rear visibility & adjustability?
