All of those look nice actually.  This winter I'll be moving to clip-ons and mirrors, so this thread has been very useful.

Any links or further info?  I don't like scrounging evilbay categories. :)

I've got the crg lanesplitters and after enough miles they start to rattle around. I have to adjust them every couple of weeks. I use to think they were pretty good for seeing behind until I cracked one and had a replacement mirror installed from a local autoglass place. For $10 the improvement was huge.....if I wasn't so lazy I'd go get the other one done.

I have the Rizoma Reverse Retro's as well....in black though.  The glass has a light blueish tint, are rock solid, and work great.  Matched with the Rizoma bar ends and grips makes for a nice ride

your gas cap looks like it is bomb proof with all those bolts.

^^Never heard that before...I wish the allen bolts were flush rather than raised.  I amy have the trim ring and bolts anodized black when I move back to the United States.

I'm just teasing. My gas cap has but 5 bolts. 2 long ones, 3 short ones.

I've also got the Rizoma Class Retro mirrors.  With the Rizoma grips, there's room for the mirrors to be mounted to the bar itself.  They're rock solid and (almost) never need readjusting.



Wow, looks familiar  [thumbsup]  I echo these sentiments in that there is no vibration when attached to the bar and the image is awesome.  Fit and finish is superb and consistent with the price.

One comment however, I recently had a driveway tipover that is too complicated to go into here, but the bottom line is that these are so solid that since the mirror sticks beyond the end of the bar, it actually bent my bar.  I would consider mounting them to the bar end (they are made for this with compatible Rizoma barends), but I would be afraid of loosing the vibration free image.

Picture below is before I installed my bar ends:
