    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Thanks Flatline, but I actually want mirrors identical to the ones in the pic - ie: round and chromed metal. All the ones I have found thus far have been plastic (chinese), black or 'brushed' metal. The only chrome metal ones I can find are not round (kinda rectangular). Any links to any suppliers would be appreciated, I am getting very tired of hunting.
 
 
Zooks id say thats a Harley or cruiser type bar end. Check out a metric or Harley cruiser site, as those are a lil more blingy than your norm bar end.

Thanks very much SDK. That's them indeed. Now if I can just find somewhere that doesn't want a million dollars for them to ship them to Australia. Even better if I could actually find them locally (not having much luck on that one).

Thanks to Mortation too. I found some of those on ebay (I use ebay Aus but I search 'worldwide') but they are not quite right. I like the long curved arm, it gives a choice of options when it comes to positioning them.

They are actually old Brit / Euro style but not many people make 'em anymore. :(
 
Right but i see them alot in cruiser mags. I would guess thats a one inch bar on that bike but i dunno for sure.
 
sorry no info - but can you tell us about that bike? It's got the wheels I need.
 
I found them. They are made by a company called Halcyon in London. I tracked down their Australian importers and bought a pair. They look sweeeeeet. I'll post up a couple of pics ASAP.


This is the company that makes them - http://www.classicpartsltd.com/

More than I planned to spend. Almost $100 each, although I expect they will last forever, they are solid highly polished stainless steel.
 
Thought I should finally get around to updating this thread. Sorry for the quality - cloudy day / crappy camera. You should get the idea though.

I'll take some better pics this afternoon and update them. I really like the way this bike is progressing. It's like slowly sculpting, I love it. :D

Hey Zooks, the mirrors look great and I'm thinking of getting a set, one question tho - are they convex? It looks like it, but I'm wondering how the visibility is...

cheers mate
