    wol·la bar mir·ror also wal·la bar mir·ror (wah-lah, -luh - bahr - mir-er)

    Do you say that was not even a little bit funny ?

      Oh yeah. Funny as heck.:-D

      I was half convinced that Kentucky had bastardized a french expression and adopted it in it's slang, inproper form: "wolla". And even put it in the dictionary.

        well, i got my bar end mirrors on, i bought a set of clubmans first though as i didnt like the stock bars much....

        wow, the clubmans are sweet but way uncomfortable...

        it looks way badass, but needs different bars for sure....

            "Superbike" bend bars are a good compromise. Also if you like them a little a higher and wider, the "dirt track / flat track" #10 (I think) bend is nice.

            As far as bar end mirrors go, I love em, but you cant see jack on the highway, not that any mirrors do much for you on the highway. Everything is just a blurry mess but they definately work great around town. Also, I think they are ok under the bars, but only a cafe style bike...

              Heh .. you can hear some interesting variations of many words in this area. .. but I am not sure what j.w.napier was going for .. but I was only joking around.

                  That looks pretty sexy. How tall are you, long arms? I'm 6'1" with monkey arms. I think clubmans might not be a bad thing.

                        the mirrors? are they? i just mounted them and turned them so i could see..

                        should they face with the fat side out? i guess they do look a little funny

                          Napoleon advertises that theirs can go either way. Don't listen to Jeff. He just wants you to do it his way.

                            Nice bike, looks sharp!

                            I ordered myself a set of Napoleon bar end mirrors for my 1100 along with some new SuperBike bars. I have the same mirrors and SuperBike bars, along with a set of Clubman bars for the CB500.

                            Anxious to try them out...

                              I only want the best for my buddy, Nate. The main idea is to be able to see out of 'em , Billy. Just for that wisecrack, I'm gonna stick another 'tater in you're tailpipe. :-D
