4th Gen, Which mirrors do you like?? and Why??

I am replacing the mirrors on my fourth gen, since I am repainting the bike. Any suggestions on mirrors and what do you like about them? I would like a mirror with integraded blinkers..... any suggestions???

Well you add up the total cost of the mirrors, pads, bolts and shipping and let me know what you find for new ones

Sounds good to me. I will buy them from you. I like the idea, that I know they will bolt right up, without any fussing around. I like products that work the first time.

Here ya go----
From the Honda Service 1.800.828.5498, either Erin or Kevin

Two mirrors right and left @ $55.89/each total= $111.78
washers 4 required @ $1.34/each total= $5.36
bolts 4 required @ $.69/each total= $2.76
cap socket bolt 2 required @ $1.86/each total= $3.72
GRAND TOTAL---------------------------------= $123.62
Pads and plates from old mirrors are still in great shape, don't need them.
no tax because I'm out of state
Shipping was free, (dude that answered when I called was really cool!!!)

So if you paid more than this, you got ripped off!! Sorry man.

Since the original poster asked about integrated signals, wait a few months & buy the mirrors from the new CBR1000RR. They are the only part of the bike that isn't butt ugly.

No I'm not done yet. If I want to get screwed I would have went to my local Honda Dealer, at least I can see them coming from behind the counter. I came to the forum for advice and not to get hustled.

Thanks KC, I looked at the pictures online and really like the 2008 CBR1000RR Mirrors. I think that will be the way I go! Good looking out.
