Do Scrambler mirrors fit the bonnie?
Wanting to know if the Scrambler black powdercoated mirrors fit the bonnie? Thanks.

Great question. I've often wondered that.

Hi - the mirror setups are completely different , unfortunately. Bonnie setup seems to be unique. Scram and Thrux setups are the same I believe.
cheers Pat

The Scrambler mirrors have a threaded end on the out side botom and a "jam" nut that locks them in place...the threads on the stem at the bottom are on the outside of the stem (male thread).
The Bonneville (and America and SM)have an internal thread in the base of the stem and it uses a bolt that is inserted from the bottom to lock the stem in place..they are not interchangeable.

I neglected to mention that the mirrors (lollipops) are interchangeable, but you would have to powder coat or paint the stems black.

Hmmmm. Well, there goes that idea. Once again I walk away more informed but disappointed.

Thanks for the info. You just saved me a few bucks and a whole lot of time.
