Hey all,
been a while since I've done some modding on my bike. But finally I got to work and this is the result
For those interested - it is a fairly easy mod to do. The most important thing is this
Home made adapter to fit the mounting holes. I went with the front mounting hole same as in FZ6 mirrors, the middle hole is a new screw acting as the second FZ6 mirror mounting screw while the third hole holds the GSXR mirror to the adapter. Something like this
Mounting is fairly easy. I used some extra washers and nuts to slightly align the mounting a bit upward. The results... Did not had the chance to test ride it but when sitting on the bike I see edges of my rear case and a little bit of bar ends. In comparision - stock mirrors show my elbows. So the new ones are lower and wider.
Now I need to do something with the holes from stock turn signals. Been thinking of buying flush mount turn signals but replacing LEDs there with white ones to make extra position lights - here in Poland we cannot have yellow pod lights like You guys in The USA.
Whole work took me like 3 hours with about 70% time for making these little metal adapter plates by hand. The rest was resoldering the turn signal connectors and that's all folks
