get that factory service manual if ya dont have it...........got a complete list of the tools you need for everything, torx kits aren't too expensive, buy a kit.....make sure its got a 27 also

 

So, get the "Special" 2-pc Torx SET ... it has a T27 and whatever size that Mirror Nut is

She sells them

 

Get a good Torx set and you'll have what you need. BTW, that's a stupid design.
It's probably a nut with a torx head cap.

 

ok ok I'll get a torx set.

 

id buy anything from her.......then return it, and buy more stuff

 

I have been riding since 1976...my 2018 Sportster 48 came with the under -the -bar mirrors. I hated them but knew I was going to switch to
Biltwell chumps bars ( Great bars btw ) Well I still did not feel safe looking down at the mirrors so I flipped them...
boy am I glad I did! The original set-up might look cool but it did not feel safe for me.

ok for anyone who still wants to know, its a T40 on the torx nut. So I'm thinking I'm going to have to buy a new mirror tho. These mirrors were obviously made short to be hanging under the bars, I'd like a little more reach from it now that I have them upright. Yes, I swapped the sides so they are correct. If you can't tell, I'm a fan of mirrors. They might not always be the coolest looking things on the bike but I gotta be able to see stuff. Also thinking about ditching the right hand side, since I don't do much 4 lane riding and I don't think it's necessary for me. I dunno.

 

Yeah, I was just going to say that RANGER 73 is correct that it is just a nut that requires a Torx bit.

If you don't want to buy a Torx set just yet, you can just use a vise grip to get it off and then buy some cap nuts the right thread size to use when you switch them.

 

Phew ... good thing you came along

But, I think that Ship already sailed
