Topic: Genuine Honda mirrors are worth the money

[70CB750]

At $149 EACH?

If they improve your ability to see clearly at speeds, what’s your safety worth? Are you the type of person who buys the cheapest helmet or cheapest tire, forsaking the simple and indisputable fact that tires are the single most critical component of safety on your motorcycle. It’s the only component actually in contact with the road.

If you don’t prioritize these things, then that’s up to you. But questioning the cost of things you don’t prioritize or choose to buy is myopic. You’ve never used them so asserting they are overly expensive is ignorance on your part.

Exactly!

My justification was that spotting a cop car behind me, before it's too late, will pay for my mirrors the first time it happens.

Genuine Honda mirrors for $64 a set on ebay, includes shipping. https://www.ebay.com/itm/334676252081

I think Honda has the mirror nut as a separate part.  If you do buy these then make sure you also order 2 of the nuts to go with them.  I'm not sure who has the best mirrors but I can say the emgo ones aren't great.

 I have a couple of the magnifying ones. They suck. I'd rather see how many cars are behind me or a little of the other lane than how many people are in the one car.
