I decided I wasn't going to pay ****in $80 for some dumb bracket to relocate signals. bought two bolts, two steel bolt spacers, and a couple lockwashers and went to work. more time than anything. you could do this with a fender also, have to pull the wheel to get the bolts in. mirrors below make a hell of a difference, no more staring at my shoulders. VERY HAPPY.

You mirror flippin right I did it!!

I love being able to see whith out having to move my upper torso. Also its not obvious when I see the cop behind me and i can nanchalantly move over. Plus the best part about the mirrors flipped is that i can white line alot easier then before.:D Is it me or is every ones side view mirrors the same height as the bikes :chair: so flipping them gives me the edge I need to squeek my way through. :D

Sweet looking bike bro. I already did the front signal relocation with the &^%@ing 80 kit but it was a gift. What did you do for the rear your pictures striked some curiosity. Also I like the grips those arent the ones on ebay for 30 bucks ? If so how is it fit? I have the black diamonds that everyone and their mother has and I like them but the end cap being able to get stolen ooppss I mean fall off sucks. My buddy and I each " lost " one on the left side at a bike night. He gave me his other one right before he got shipped off over seas and I went to the dealer and it " fell off " again. Sooo screw it. any ways didnt mean to :soapbox: on your thread.

first, the grips are not cheapos. I bought them from www.smtmachining.com . the people here are extremely helpful. I also got my axle caps from them, and risers i believe. they fit perfectly. the whole rear fender I fabricated and the signals are mounted to it. look in my gallery im sure there are pics there. thanks for lookin

Flipped mirrors are the BEST possible thing to do concerning mirrors short of dropping $250 for Jokers IMO.
