eBay,UNIVERSAL BLACK MOTORCYCLE HANDLEBAR MIRROR MOUNT 10MM 7/8" ALUMINUM CLAMP, $5 for a pair, just bought them. Should fit right between the clutch and grip assembly, as currently there is a gap there.

Check out some other street fighter fz6-forum posts, there was a link in there. Called a universal mirror mount, or something like that. Seen them on eBay before also.

Check out page one of the post, linked there

mc master carr ...google it. P/N is on page 1 of the post.

Last little bits of info ... Turn signals are done, and added a mirror. I like them; wedgy like a Triumph speed tripple, also matches the FZ1N headlight style. Cut the wires off about two inches from the stock connectors. I didn't hook up the blue running lamp wires, as the LED turns...

Oh yea, templates. Click on the below image. The full sized image is a 8.5 x 11" wide scan, so basically you can print it out stretched 100% (no print margins) and you end up with a picture you can cut out with scissors and trace onto your own metal. Drill, cut, bend, paint, you got your own...

...project post continues. Sheet metal fab always starts with looking over the options and some cardboard + tape mockups. Sheet metal can be tricky, as you can't always make what you envision. I only have a finger brake, no press brake so was slightly limited (which i'll explain more later)...

Thought that one over, not going to add any. I know it's not technically legal, but over the last few days been looking at cars driving at night and came to the conclusion I don't need it. These CA plates are white and super reflective. Other headlights provide the illumination. If a cop is...

So just wrapped up the fender eliminator ...turned out pretty nice actually. (Read about it here) Teaser pics Street fighter mirrors to follow.... Stock exhaust glass pack mod to follow ... (get some rumble on the cheap)

SO, my street-fighter project continued with another little DIY mod (it's here, for those interested). I needed a change to the stock tail section, as it was kinda massive and became ever-more-so glaring as the bike continued to get converted. Below is what I fab'd up ...a unique fender...

No hi beam, although you might find a post in this form on how to wire the second filament up ...as I recall the bulb I pulled had two filaments, and the harness was only wire to one of them. Steal away, if it was a secret and I didn't want people to borrow on my hard work wouldn't have posted...

... so the saga continues.... Next came mounting up the light assembly. I didn't take as many photos, I was rushing to beat darkness, so hope it's still clear enough. Parts and tools: 1" x 1/8" aluminum flat stock - 12 inch bar more than enough 1/4-20 button head stainless allens - 2 that...

Need more inspiration?? This weekend at Palomar MTN :BLAA:

Awesome to hear! It really makes the bike more fun to ride in the canyons ...but ....on the FWY, it pretty much sucks I kept the old fairing, so if I do long multi-day trips in the future I will put it back on (one of the reasons I didn't want to mod the wire harness). It's pretty tough...

I didn't connect those to anything. I guess I could have wired the headlamp a little differently and put some bulbs in there ...but... I really wanted the headlight on 100% of the time anyway, so just went my route. Sorta a work around.
