The one feaure of my VFR I've never liked , has always been the rubber booted mirrors on my '98 model.
Does anyone here know of any replacement mirrors available.... that bolt on the same way.... but simply have black painted stalks... rather than the OEM , rubber boot covered chrome/brass type?
The adjustment bolt on my right side mirror has finally stripped.... and now would be a perfect time to replace both. Please feel free to answer here... or write to me @ giz059@yahoo.com
Thanx in Advance,
Giz
Can always use the 2000-2001 mirrors. They went away from the rubber condom on those.
I think Gixxr Mirrors work, but I'm not positive.
Hrmm not quite sure what works exactly, But I do know that if your mirros bolt onto your fairing, and you are going to get rid of them I would be more then willing to take them off your hands for the price of shipping!!!

Yeah, go buy some 2000-2001 VFR mirrors.
Or, if you want to go with lighted GSXR mirrors, I can sell you the mounts required to adapt them to your VFR. I have a thread in the "Bargain Finder" forum that has all the details.

Get the '00-'01 mirrors from Joe Winn, and mount them on Lobster's extending blocks - perfection.

Better yet, get the lighted Darth Bling mirrors and the Lobster extenders and have the best combo you can get (IMHO)!
