Mirror thread

Post by brunfelsia »

Hi All,
can anyone tell me where to get a mirror for a 3.5 Sport? The thread seems to be 10mm, but is it metric fine as I can't get a bolt to go in by more than a couple of turns. I'm going to tap the lever block for the offside to fit the second. Are there any other manufacturers whose mirrors fit? Someone suggested Kawasaki might.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

I went to my local motorcycle parts shop and asked for a suitable mirror in black finish and got one I think suitable for Kawasaki as you mention. Bloke seemed to know without thinking about it.Cannot look over my shoulder so easily these days,must be advancing jowl syndrome.

Any 10mm threaded mirrors should fit (just check the thread direction for the l/h bar)
I fitted a pair, bought at random from ebay which looked just like these....

They looked great on my 350 sport, but beware they often look like chrome but are chromed plastic and therefore the head shatters if you hit it against anything (ie a garage wall!)
