They came off a Yamaha. I cant remember the model, but pretty common. They give good visibility past your elbows.

Here's a better pic of the mirrors.

The mirrors are probably the EMGO replacement mirrors for the Yamaha Virago, but I can't account for the stalks they are mounted on.

If you Google EMGO model XV mirrors, 20-86831 (RH) and 20-86832 (LH) you will get tons of hits including Amazon, E-bay and all the usual motorcycle accessory retailers. Expect to pay about $15 each. You really don't need to worry about right or left side, the supplied stalks are different but the mirrors are the same and will screw right onto your factory 10mm stalks.

They look like the ones I got from Mikes. The stems that come with them are kind of short but the heads screw onto the stock Bonnie stems, which I just bent down to lower and extend them out farther.

If memory serves the mirror stalks were actually the OEM ones that he bent himself. ( at least I think so, not exactly sure , too long ago)

I added the same mirrors to my 05 and bent the arms in a vice , but only one bend just so i could see around my elbows.

I always think of Scott especially this time of the year, and the rides we enjoyed together.
Will get out my video he took of me on our very first ride together from my first NTBF rally. We rode the BRP from Deals Gap to Maggie Valley so he could show me the Wheels Through Time Museum.

I still miss him a lot.

Yup, I'm thinking you are correct there Doug. The Mirrors screwed into the stock stalks that were bent/polished.
