Are there any low profile mirrors that fit on a TBA. Have done a fair few mods to end up with a America/Speedmaster Hybrid - but i reckon the mirrors will really set it off.

Dazco and I have THESE.

They look awesome- How much do they cost and can you send them to Perth - Australia.
Cheers

You can get them through their web site HERE.
Scroll down a bit..
You can E-mail them regarding shipping and adapters.
You can see a pic of them, mounted on Dazco's Speedie by clicking on the signature line of one of his posts.

rock- Here's a so so pic of how they set up on my America:

Arlen Ness Stealth II mirrors fit nicely on my speedmaster. I have the blue saphire glass, its very complimentary to the blue tank.
I have the short mirror stems, it makes them more elbow checkers than mirrors. You may want to try the taller stems.

Here are some angles i shot for another thread to show the rise and pullback of the new risers i got, but you can also get a decent view of the mirrors. Unfortunatly i don't have any shots of the backs which have embossed black flames on them. I wasn't perticularly enamored of those, but the mirrors fit the bike's look so well it's not a big deal. Thats just me anyways, you may like the flames. I had 2 sets of them......one with gold flames and one with black. The black look much better to me because the gold look too gaudy and harly-like. I tried to polish the gold off and it worked to a degree but also took some chrome off, so i got the black and been much happier with the look. I think they fit the speedy's look better than anything else, and i searched the internet ad nausium.

after several tries at mirrors, I like these and I can see behind me with them. The coolest most exotic looking mirrors seem to be the least usefull.

I have the Kuryakyn Ellipse mirrors. Swap meet find. I didnt' use adaptors, just bolted them snugly to the mirror mount holes. I was surprised to find they offer better field of vision than the OEM lollipops.

dazco, when you bolted your mirrors straight on, where they for a harley or for metric fit?

 

[dazco]

You mean the threads? I can't remember, but they come with bolts so i just bolted them right on using some washers at the top. I found some chrome washers at a hardware store. So basically the mirrors have a threaded hole in the base of the stem and the bolts go thru from the bottom. The holes in the bike's clutch and brake mounts are kinda big compared to the screw, but i found it no problem. I just tightened the hell out of them. Thats what the chrome washer at the top was for because the hole is bigger than the base of the stem. Worked out just fine tho and they stay put. you should be warned that after being used to the stock mirrors the field of view is small. I thought i wouldn't get used to it but i did 100%.

These are about as low profile as you can get, bought them locally from 12 Gauge Customs (HD). Needed adapters and loctite to keep them stable and they are surprizingly good now, I can see my elbows and the road behind !
