Unfortunately 28pages of discussion shows that finding style and function together aint easy and most just make a compromise either way.Not as useless as you might think but took me awhile to get right.
Fit straight into OEM holes,as easy as fitting standard ones on.
Don't blame you. If you can make them work for you then that's all that matters. I hated those huge stock antennas. They detracted from the bike so much. Not sure why Yamaha would put such an ugly mirror on such a beautiful bike. I know the 6R isn't SS, but come one there's no need for the 2 foot long mirrors. I like the look and functionality of the ZX-6R mirrors, but have been leaning towards bar-ends recently.
