RazorWing Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Has anyone tried 8th Gen mirrors on a 5th? I really like the look of them and the signals integrated, but I have to drive 3 hours just to see an 8th gen at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer JZH Posted April 27, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted April 27, 2015 Probably not the same bolt spacing. The spacing narrowed with the VTEC, and Honda uses narrower spacing on most of its other sport bikes, so I doubt they would have gone backwards...

Member Contributer deltaboxii Posted April 28, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted April 28, 2015 8th gen mirrors will not work, its the angle of the dangle. basically, you will be looking at your feet. I am working with some other members on here to mount up GSXR 600/ 750 turn signal mirrors on a 5th and 6th gen. So far, no progress in finding someone to manufacture these mounts, but for the time being we got some Kawi ZX6R mirror bases to work. This will work on a 6th Gen as well I believe. I just bought another set of Gixxer t/S mirrors to try it. We ran out of time to figure out how to run the wire, but should not be that hard to hide it. Certainly better looking than some of the other options out there IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
