    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I got the mirrors in your third link.I like them allot.I needed mirrors and bar ends so it was 2 birds with 1 stone deal.
 
OH!!! Thank you so much! I wanted Napolean bar end mirrors but they cost a fortune. Instead I'll get the one's in the third link. They look the same as Napolean's but have a lower price tag :D.

I searched all of the ebay sellers and those are about the only convex mirrors I could find. There are still some napoleans floating around but they seem to be far and few between.


BTW using those 1150 mirrors and the extenders, the mirrors are out far enough to give me a great view and it is so eazy to glance back because they are right at your eye line of sight. You have to move your eye much further down to focus on the bar end mirror.

I also those mirror isolators and I can seem much farther back

I don't find it to much out of line of sight.IOMO it's the way to go if you actually want to see something.I think Napoleon is having North American supplier problems.Seen it somewhere here.A local store had two I was going to get but they sold one.Got these instead and got two for the price of one Napoleon.

How far back do you reckon a cop car could be before you could recognize him (say) he has no lights on top as most dont have now adays?

I have had bad buzz in some mirrors and even when I put my hand to the back of the mirror to stop the vibe, I can maybe see 40-50 yards behind at best. The Napoleans do seem to work better, but there is variation. I'm wondering if it has to do with the age of the rubber they are mounted in.
 
There are vibes when accelerating and trailing throttle.But at steady cruise there's not much.The roads here a pretty twisty,got to worry more about cops on the sides of the roads than the ones behind you.

Twisty roads I'm watching forward but here in CA the CHP like to move up from the rear so they can pace you. At least in the old days they were not allowed to use radar on the freeway, but I'm seeing more of it lately
