Any movement on this, Corner Carver? THEN what would we have to talk about??

Thanks for the clarification. Let us know what you find out that works best. Still interested in hearing about how you modded the GSXR mirrors to fit, with a few good fotos too, if you choose.

Hmmm....do the GSXR mirrors come with LED lights, hence the need for any of this stuff? Or maybe (once I hear how the install/mod went) they also come non-LED, so I won't need to sweat all this hot & sexy diode/resistor talk?

Me too. I'll surely need this whole electrical deal spelled out slowly in English step by step if we get that far.

yeah...what he said...details, please?

No one has that I'm aware of. I don't know him really, other than buying his really nice Yosh pipes for one of my 500s a while ago.

Do they work as running lights? I'm trying to get the whole scope of this...you kept the VFR bases, broke the glass, and used the GSXR mirror/signal heads? That right? Issues/troubles/fixes if that's what you did? Any vibration in the glass? Love to see how you ran the wire in a close up foto/ I think I saw/read many folks with the wire running along the outside, so fotos of yours would be a big help.

Yeah....details? Does he have DB's mounts? Something else? Work as running lights too?

Any movement on this by...anyone?

I'm still holding out hope that someone with DB's set will offer them up and let me/us just get them made.

Yep. That's what all the fuss is about. Mirrors we got. Adapter we ain't got. I like the CBR1000RR ones as well, better than the GXR ones. My price on the CBR OEM ones locally at my dealer here is $71 each, I think it was. Cycle Gear has these same Bikemaster aftermarket ones you showed for $38 each, I think? Me too. Not a fan of the acrylic. I prefer actual signal mirrors, not signal mirror bases. I still say this would be a hell of a lot easier if someone would loan me/someone the actual DB GSXR mounts and let me/us take them and have copies made.

Of what? The mirror extender blocks or the GSXR mirror adapters? I have the extender blocks (came with my bike) but I have never used them. As far as that acrylic block, I've used that stuff in the past. One tip I remember is that when you cut it, it's white, but you can take a propane torch and lightly pass it over the cut part to turn it clear as well.

Personally I don't need/want an extender block. But at least there seems to be some additional traction/interest with this. Yep. I have a set of the Suzuki mirrors as well. I pull them out often, hold them up to the VTEC, sigh loudly, think about how to mount them, then put them away again.

Hey Silver....did you run by DB's house? Or, care to lend your's to the cause for a few days?

For me, I personally like the CBR1000RR mirrors better. I think the ones I liked and had my dealer price out were the 08-13 model year ones. They were less than $90 each to me. I like your line of thinking though.....Have a look and see what you think. More Honda-ish, yes? Now, if your little Rizoma folks made an adapter for THOSE (I can hardly tell what I'm looking at on this link http://www.pjsparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=43), I/we'd be in bid-ness!

Sooooo....back to square one then, all? Again, if anyone has a set of the DB-made adapters, and would like to send them to me in SoCal to make diagrams I can shop around and get prices for making these, let me know. Be glad to head it up. Or, if you happen to live NEAR Mr. Bling hisself, and want to give him my name/contact info directly, I'd be happy to do that too. Right now, this plan seems to have hit a stop, yeah?

Spacing is 40 mm . I'm gonna try a set of these and report back. Which ones are you thinking of trying? (which model number? Lots to choose from.)

Yep. WERA19, what's the status on that? You check to see if any of those mirror base designs would work out? So...you make it over to DB's house yet? The list is WAITING..... (lol)

Keep me/us posted....

Tomorrow's the 8th. How was your trip? Don't forget about me/us when you get settled in back home, yeah?

Wait? WAIT?? OF COURSE we can wait. What's a few more days between friends, right? Drop "us" a line or PM me when you get back. Or, care to sell them outright if you are not going to use them?

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, GO KNOCK ON HIS DOOR! BEG AND/OR PLEAD IF YOU HAVE TO! ASK HIM TO CONTACT/PM ME! (or something like that.)

I'm tryin'....I WILL beat a dead/dying horse if it gets me somewhere.... C'mon people, I'm told that winter was MADE for stuff like this, right? You know you'll get them back ASAP in great shape. This IS VFRD, after all. You know us!

OK...here's an idea....anyone that currently owns a set of these DB mirror adapters (since it may be winter where you live and you won't be riding for a while), feel like taking them off and letting someone see about getting dimensions and maybe getting us some copies made from scratch? Though I'm probably not the guy (I'm an agency ad guy, not a machinst or CAD designer) I'd certainly be in for helping any way I could to get these made. Anyone got a set to lend to the cause? (And yes, you Canadians, I'm looking at you...)

Yep, those are the DB mounts. And that IS the best foto that exists, I've found. And DB is MIA. Hasn't been on here in years, his profile says. Wish I knew where he lived. I'm sure we got "people" in his town that could flush him out and politely ask for the drawings. Right now, the earlier ones I posted on the blue background is the best I've come up with. Think they'll work?
