    Hey Firey someone has posted on here that they got nicked for mirrors too small, and they gave the min sq mm size but cant remember where it was maybe someone else can? I have Arlen Ness teardrops which I think might be in the same category.

    I bought these recently an got knocked back at roadworthy time.

    Off-topic but it was the same with my indicator set-up which were built into the side of the number plate holder. Apparently they have to be a set distance out from the bike?!?!!?

    If I had to put a pair of 80cm square mirrors on my bike it would look pretty funny. They'd look like giant ears. ;)

    Yeah Firey you cant see 3/4 of f-all out of these mirrors, its all about the look. And i have found that if you ride faster than everything else around u u dont have to look at em, hmm the cunstable didnt seem to agree with my thinkin but he didnt say nought bout my mirrors. Should have told him I couldnt see him cos my mirrors are too small, If i had have seen him i would have gone faster. hehehehehe.

    Thanks Frank - I couldn't see where it say we have to have them a certain cm size - it says the both have to be the same size - etc with the radius 1.2  - that must be where 80cms comes into it

    Here is my bike, check out the Mirrors!!   there good to see who is behind me though.

    Certainly not legal in NSW
    I do have the adr rule on this, if i find it i will post it up.
    The problem will be not enough surface area on the mirrors.

    I had a run in with mr plod about my mirrors on the fatty and he was nice enough
    to point me in the rite direction.
