Easy mod....bought the JP cycles mirrors for the Yamaha V max...got them yesterday...Made by EMGO...good quality....Just unscrew the tops of your Mickey Mouse round ones and screw on the new mirrors. Leave the stems alone....Look great and better rear view....

Would I be right in saying that the Bonnie mirrors are 10mm thread, with a left hand thread on the right mirror and a right hand thread on the left? :upthumb:

Yeh, but if they're not handed correctly (left and right) then they wont screw on. :???:

Sorry, should make it clear, I am in the UK and we have different suppliers of the V max mirrors.

I used V-Stars instead of V-Max's...
They might be the same mirrors....

Super easy to install....like doc said....it's a straight swap, you don't even have to remove the stock stalks.
The look a LOT better...plus you can actually see past your elbows.

Got mine (used) from ebay for $25 shipped
