Be careful about mounting in sunlight (in ho weather) most will shut down when they get too hot.

Looks good. I was waiting on Lux to someday release their integrated knock off plate/blinkers, but taking forever so may just say fuq it and get the DG's.

How do you like the view with those crg arrows? Where did you get the bar ends for them? Can you see well with those mirrors?

got the arrow mirrors on my streetfighter. You'll need the bar end adapter that crg sells as the bar end the bike comes with are too large diameter.

Rizoma turn signals are plug n play. Just made a small mounting bracket out of a plastic sheet.

got rid of the bunny ears and now you've got horns!

Just me but think flush mount would look better but probably not as visible to other drivers.

I'm in the same camp.

Although OEM mirrors are pretty ineffective they do give some rear vision. When I "pretend" I've got the bar end mirrors on it seems to me that its not an easy or natural position to get your head to? Those who have them do you get use to the position?

And on the aesthetics the make the bike look a bit old /retro / cafe racer??

thats ok. but it does look much better in person, just because those rizoma are very beautifully designed. i may try a few different locations. but for now atleast i have turn signals. lol
