    I wonder if the bar ends you bought will also fit a 2024 Z900RS. The mirrors look great. Did you have to get used to looking down to see behind you?

      No idea about the bar ends to be honest. As for the mirrors you get used to very quickly

      Great mirrors. A bit pricey but worth the money.

    Hi Alex, do they get in the way when taking your hands on and off the bars? Also would they be more effective the other way around? Swapping left to right so that the mirrors are further from the bars, if you know what I mean?

    • @TheBikeFather
      @TheBikeFather  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi.. No need to swap. They do twist all the way out, so it really depends on how you prefer. Inwards as you see in the video, might be a bit too tight especially if you have big hands/gloves. I use them pointing outwards, that way they don't get in the way of my hands.

    Hey man. Can we freely switch the mirrors from the outwards to inwards position or to do that we have to bolt/unbolt something. I like the mirrors but to park in my place if they stay in the outwards position its going to be complicated because the space is narrow.
    Thanks in advance for the answer.

    • @TheBikeFather
      @TheBikeFather  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes you can. You can twist the on the go. Occasionally when I got to London and need to do some filtering I twist them upwards. You can twist them inwards but bare in mind that will drastically reduce visibility? Plus most likely your hands will hit the mirrors.

    Got the same mirrors with probolt and now I can see everything behind me and not just my elbows XD ! .. So I have to ask .. I see ALOT on youtube mounting bar end mirrors the way you do .. the pointy bit of the mirror in towards the dash .. WHY? .. it do not make sence to me.. it looks awkward and you dont get as much mirror to look at .. a reason why you mount them this way?

    • @Mo7scape
      @Mo7scape 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It makes the motorcycle narrower so you can filter between vehicles more easily

    • @TheBikeFather
      @TheBikeFather  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't use them like that actually. That's just how I fitted them, however, as soon as I got on the bike I've twisted them outwards for more visibility. However, Izat alawi is right, if you do a lot of filtering, you can twist them inwards to make your bike narrower. Of course, by doing that, you loose some of that visibility.

      10m. These are the ones I initially bought: www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B015NJOPB2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1
      I think after I bought some other ones, i can't remember why, but they were the same size. It says the product doesn't existing anymore on amazon, so I can't share the link.

    Not sure if you can see better or even as good, but surely looks cleaner now.... Actually, I am so torn because of you. I am currently riding 2017 Suzuki GSX S750 and relatively happy with the bike..However, I am sooooo wanting to buy Z900 after watching your channel..😞. If I sell my Samsung stock to buy Z900, you know it is absolutely your fault..🙄... lol....🤪😁😎

    • @TheBikeFather
      @TheBikeFather  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You definitely get more visibility, especially if you twist the mirrors outwards.Plus they do look nice indeed. I did look at the Suzuki as well when I was making my decision as what to buy, in the end I went for the z900. It's a good all rounder, plus good value for money for everything you getting. I'm enjoying it so far. I'm planning to do a 6 months review soon. So stay tuned. And thanks for watching.

      I did actually. I think you suggested them in my different video. Dimensions:
      A width head: 117 mm
      B height head: 83 mm.
      Height are pretty much the same, but rizoma are slightly longer with 2cm. lol. However more expensive. And I liked the look of these more than the highsider victory.
      But those seem to be much more affordable.
