2004 620ie mirrors
Do not know what you folks think to the 620 monster mirror's but the ones on our 620 are shi*e, get to 70 and thet start moving on there own accord.
What aftermarket mirrors appear to be the popular choice then???? Chris. |

I prefer bar end mirrors as I can see what happens behind me
and not like on the oem ones only that my arms are still attached to my body , and even though mine are not street legal due to their size I would say that I definitly see more. Do you have the round ones or the later style? The round ones are crap, the later ones will be tested when the s2r is road legal and the snow is gone, but they seem more trustworthy. And as for vibrations, there are none, at least not on my bar end mirrors. now have these http://www.shin-yo.de/artikeldetails...s_301-073.html but will swap to these http://www.shin-yo.de/artikeldetails...s_301-727.html cheers |

I replaced my 620’s Mickey-Mouse's ears mirrors with the Ducati Performance low-profile versions; they look great and were around £70 I think.

Like Space Cadet, I have the DP mirrors. I got them here, 2nd hand for 40 quid. I thought they would be useless, being teardrop shaped but they do not vibrate at all and give an excellent view compared to the standard ones.

I would disagree with them having better view as the originals had much better view IMO , but the DP’s look much better which is all that really counts!!

Due to an underpadded ass I tend to move around on the seat a bit so get a reasonable view from the standard mirrors, well OK one at a time anyway. LOL also skinny means I don't see so much of me in them to start with.
At best mirrors are for a quick glimpse before you look properly
