Replacing that top plate is cake, and makes it worth it to be able to run any bar you want, huh?!

Mine is actually from Carlini too.

Quick question - what are those mirrors, and how well do they work? I have one on, but with the angle, and where my arms are, it's not as useful as I would like.

Bike looks great. That metal grind/green combo is one of my favorite factory paint schemes.

Thanks! The mirrors are wicked image mirrors. They work great. I did this on my other apes too. You have to tap the bar and use HeliCoil. Then you screw it directly on the bar for a clean look. If you don't set them right or if your bars aren't wide enough you might have to adjust how you look out of them. On these the right side mirror views right side and left views left. On my other bars in my avatar, I'd have to look out the left mirror to see behind me on the right side. It wasn't bad, but I learned off that one on how to set these.
