+1 for me - good price, about £20 shipped to UK IIRC, and quick delivery. Good mod, worth the money http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-10mm-Mirror-Riser-Extender-Adapter-Honda-Silverwing-/251261158236?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a8055035c Graham. |

| Thank you. That's what I was looking for. I found them over here so shipping is $5 instead of $20. I'm looking forward to actually seeing what is behind me. |

| When i had my test ride, before buying my Silverwing, i insisted on mirror risers as i couldn't see behind me, they fitted them as part of the deal. I recently changed the mirrors for those that were standard on my Burgman 400. Which is now 14years old. I think a few others in USA have also found these mirrors better. |

| + 1 on the Burgman 400 mirrors. I'm not sure witch years but some(I believe the newer models)have longer stems that you don't need mirror extenders. |

| I did some searching and I believe the regular Burgman 400 mirrors have the long stems and the type S Burgman 400 mirrors are the ones with the short stems. I will look for the old Honda CB750 type and see what I think about them, thank you John for another option. |

| I ordered the extenders and they do a great job. It is funny..I ordered them from ebay and I had to pay like $10-15 shipping and when I get the package it was sent from about 1/2 mile from my house. I thought they were coming from China or something.
I have heard that the Burgman 400 mirrors very well but I didn't want to spend that much for what the extenders did for me. |
