Default Mirror extenders

I had a pair on my ZZR for my indy trip... they fuck'n rocked. the mirrors weren't horrible before... but I was amazed what an 1" extension could do...
They'll be one of the first things I put on my new bike.

I got them from Twisted Throttle... they make some for many different models of bikes...

I know Smilie was interested... here's what the ones for his 636 looks like

The ones for my new bike... 600RR

no... they don't make it any harder... but I'm only speaking for my ZZR... the RR it looks as though it creates another joint... so who knows...

I don't know how the mirrors are for the RR... but I really liked the extra range of my ZZR's extensions...

on my 06 RR the mirrors are very stiff which make it hard to fold them, but by looking at the pics the joint should make it a lot easier
