Hey guys, im getting ready to pick up my 796 in a few days. I keep seeing the little mirrors that the monsters have (not factory) and I wanted to know which one you guys are using.

Thanks in advance!!

Anticipate! Most "accidents" are predictable, and avoidable.

Oh well I see you've gone for the 796, good on you!!

Rizoma do a nice line in mirrors plus there's lots of other makes out there, now what ever you do don't rush your mods, you know Rome wasn't built in a day so take your time, study other forum members bikes and choose the parts that suit you.

Congrats on the 796 . . .

Now, spill the beans, Termi or not?

Personally I do prefer these, http://www.monsterparts.com/pc/BS070/Mirrors/BS070.html   . . yes, in black or  you could also take a look at these, http://www.monsterparts.com/pc/AO-100/Mirrors/AO-100.html

Actually, take a look at these pages, http://www.monsterparts.com/c/Mirrors/Mirrors.html and then the whole website, Jeff is a great person and wont sell you something that he's not sure it fits . . .

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.

 I had CRG Arrows on my M1100S, and I think they work the best, they give a good field of view and do not vibrate in the least. The most clear and broad view behind!

FWIW, I'd suggest the OP ride the bike a while with the stock mirrors..., after they are adjusted properly of course!  [roll]

While they are not perfect, depending on his size, one or other mirror has a clear view rather than shoulder.  8) They are at least aerodynamically quiet when combined with the stock bikini fairing which has always been important to me.

Other's MMV... Ducati did a pretty good job in the wind tunnel though...
