shinyribs Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I made these mirror extenders on my lathe. Billet 6061 if it matters. I didn't like the funky crooked looking extenders you normally see and have since gone to bar end mirrors. These just screw in to extend the straight section of your mirror stalks. They add 2.5-3" of length depending on how you adjust the jam nut. Never got around to powdercoating them, but you could paint them or just heat shrink them. If you want them shipping is free in the Lower 48, but hopefully you will consider donating a few bucks to the forum? These are ebay levers. Nothing fancy or expensive, but this can save you a few bucks. I'm very picky and these fit properly and all the hinges work tight and smooth. I've only ridden them maybe 500 miles, but they show no signs of wear. I wanted a very short shorty lever and these are just slightly too long to suit me. Color in the pics are true to life. I'll swap you these levers for your stockers on the honor system. Current flat rate small boxes from USPS are $7.90. To minimize your downtime I will send you these levers and you just send me your stock levers in exchange. Just don't stand me up! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinyribs Posted November 2, 2019 Author Share Posted November 2, 2019 I don't like to do stuff like this, but after waiting too long I decided it'd be best to help protect the rest of the members here. Yeah, I trust strangers more than I should. It's ok. User @Jling11 sent me a pm wanting to swap his stock levers for my eBay specials. I mailed mine off to him and he did actually send his stock levers back as agreed. However, the clutch lever he sent me is bent and rashed up. So, just beware if he contacts you for any dealings. I texted him back about it, but he never replied....of course. Here's what I got The sad part is....I'm totally cool with this rashed up and bent lever. I am planning to trim it down/ re-weld it in to my own version of a shorty lever, so it doesn't affect my plans at all. Had Jling11 been up front about the damage I would have still happily swapped with him, and he won't have this bad mark on his name.

shinyribs Posted November 3, 2019 Author Share Posted November 3, 2019 I've still got his personal information if anyone wants to mail him fish for Christmas. Though I'd recommend going ahead and sitting fish out in the sun now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though, he deserves an ass kickin. Just aint worth going to jail over for anyone. 1 Yamaha MT-10 ForumYamaha Tracer 900 Forum Yamaha Ténéré 700 Forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
