Rizoma Limit or Radial mirrors?

anyone got any first hand experience of the Rizoma mirrors?

I've gone through the 'show us your ride' thread looking for some....

making my way through the 'Official DMF bikes' thread too.

trying to decide between:

Limit:

and

Radial:

http://www.pjsparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=265&products_id=191

at the moment I like the lines of the radials a little better, but would love to see some Limits actually on a bike....suspect the limit looks best attached to a full sports bike (848 etc) fairing than on the bar of a monster.

Thanks in advance.

someone in us section might have them but in oz; unless he/she was a shy person and didn't play show'n'tell game; i don't recall anyone having them.....and i do look @ bling ...just a bit

..personally i like Radial more......personally

Spider they look almost identical!
Rizoma have so many different mirrors to choose from.
I bought mine more for how they would perform rather than how they would look.

Hey Spider,

I have the Rizoma Reverse Retos and they are great - Excellent quality and good vision. Even better that they don't vibrate as they are bar end mirrors. As to the two you picked - The more expensive ones look the best  [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [laugh]

Have fun,

exactly brother! then add $25 for the adapters...you can see why, despite the advice to kill the Mickey Mouse ears, I waited until I had ordered/paid for nearly everything else before moving to mirrors.

I was shocked - I honestly thought it was for a pair when I started to look.

A good pair is priceless....has always been a motto of mine....but a good pair 'of mirrors' is $500 shipped

don't forget that you are a  "schooners and meat tray" kind of a guy
outside RSL everything seems pricey [evil]

RSL. Nah, Workers Club.  ;)

And I paid $200 for a pair of CRG's, I don't think I could pay $500 for mirrors. ;)

yeah look I must say it hurts.
But you only do it once, unless you are Super and you drop the bike 10 secs after putting them on :'( :'(
I went through 3 other sets of cheaper mirrors before I settled on my Rizoma's and it did hurt also.
But back then I was buying up a storm and everything was kind numb when the CC bill hit the letterbox.

They were cheapo $40 ones.

Luckily. [roll]

Thankfully......
Cause that would have been costly.
Thanks for the snap on email.

No problemo.

Not the greatest pic, as I said, I need to invest in a speedlight that's compatible with my D80. It works on my F80, but him not digital.  >:(
