Has anyone considered or bought bar end mirrors for their V4? Just looking at some cheap Chinese mirrors on fleabay, but I'm not usually one for cheap parts to be honest. Any better options or do folks just stick with the OEM mirrors?

Thanks for that. These are the ones I was looking at: Black Billet Imola CNC Bar End Mirrors For Aprilia SHIVER GT TUONO V4R | eBay

Probably only need to fit the right one as I rarely use the left (naughty me).

Yeah look smart, and you keep the original bar ends so no extra vibration.

One thing though does make filtering abit more interesting, had a fazer 6 with bar ends on. But if you only put 1 on might not be so bad.

Mikkel if you are going to fit bar end mirrors pay the extra and get some oberons on mate, I have tried the cheaper versions and they are no where as good

They do look good and don't seem to add much width.

Do they fold in?

Yes you can swivel them inboard make them a couple of
inches narrower. Better rear view than standard mirrors.

Personaly I don't like them, but everybody to their own, the standard mirrors work spot on, can't see **** all out our lasses Ducati Monster mirrors.

As for cheap ****** copy stuff, you should be taken outside and shot, leave the cheap ****** ***** for the Jap brigade.
