    GS1000S Mirror

    If the person who bought this mirror is in need of a matching NOS Right Hand Mirror.... I have it available for the same price!

      Boy..someone seriously needs to make reproductions of these mirrors. I paid less than half that for a new set a year ago..the last pair, I believe, that Bike Bandit had.

                    I may have found 3 NOS Right hand side mirrors - am communicating with seller at present. Pricing likely to be sky high...

                      I'm thinking of selling mine, but I want a reasonable facsimile to replace them. These look about right, but the spacing between bolts is 40mm and I need 50mm.

                        I have not yet purchased a set of these RG500 repro mirrors but somebody here did and said they fit and look "similar".

                          I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

                            Looking at the picture, it appears the bolt is molded to the bracket. If that is the case, you would need to alter the original cooley fairing bracket in order for these to work.

                              If you are used to the original ones, you won't be happy with this set;
                              they vibrate and above 100km/h they do not stand their ground.
                              Screw to thighten them is on the inside, so the glass pane must be removed...
