Yup, I found the mirrors I want. The pictures of the clearance from the handlebars to the mirrors sold me.

Thanks BondGirl for all the help.

hm this mod is easy. like reeeeealy easy.
1- removed the black plastics around cluster and covering the mirror nuts
2- remove nuts with 10mm ratchet
3-remove mirro from the bike and remove the rubber thingy.

4-install the rubber thing on you new ZX mirrors.
5- THE HARDEST PART. carefully make sure the rubber thingy goes between fairing and mirror all around. Otherwise scratch can occur. OR rubber may lift a little at highway speed.
6-put nut on the rear screw do not tight yet.
7-press the mirror hard to fit the second nut.
8- tight both nut/

locktite can be used but not necessary.
put back the plastic covers.
Grab a beer and show off hehehe

Happened to notice you have aftermarket foot pegs. I really like the look and angle of those. What brand are they?
Click to expand...
which side haha
right side ( silver peg) is R6R 2006-2007 with some minor mods
Left side ( black) is Kawi ZX6 2007-2008 pegs. required grinding and mod as well.

they are not so good. They are not bad but I am still looking for something better!!!

tools needed?

Bondgirl,

Thanks soooo much for sharing! I actually got my mirrors today, and am about to attempt my first mod on my own. :confused:

Does the 10mm ratchet come in the toolkit by any chance? Are there any other tools needed outside of what comes with the bike?

Thanks!
