FYI, you won’t be able to add a bar end mirror on the right side because of the throttle by wire on your bike. You can still add one on the left though.

 

Might go that route...

I had one mirror on my FZ09. Loved it.

 

Or I could flip the mirror I guess...

but don’t you need another bracket for one of the sides ?

 

I’ve been thinking about flipping my mirrors too, should be simple just need two of these clamps and one adapter.

Go to about 7:10 in to the vid. I don’t know how different AUS models are from ours but he said he only had to buy a bracket for the right side. I been thinking about doing the flip as well

 

i looked at ours... I think you do need to buy a bracket... I guess the local Home Depot or Lowe’s. .

 

Let me know what you come up with

 

Once my daughter goes down for her nap. I’ll head out. Saddlemen seat gets here today too... and since I’m already working on the bike... ima take off those reflectors. Blow dryer and some de greaser

 

Mine came off without any heat, but it took me a while to get the sticky off and a lot of elbow grease. Hopefully the heat will let them peel off more easily for you

 

That same guy that you linked in your YouTube video post...does it in like.... 3
Minutes... degreaser is the key.

 

Ya. I’ve watched a lot of his videos. He doesn’t a pretty solid job of explaining things. I like his build.
I think I used goof off, I didn’t have any de greaser around

 

Good stock market day today

 

I have a bunch of stuff in carts on JP Cycles and Revzilla....just haven’t pulled the trigger. Don’t know where I wanna start. Ha. And then my adult voice kicks in and I don’t order.

 

Few mods I did today :

-Saddlemen seat
-vertical license plate
-Removed all reflectors







Still no switching mirrors... need the other bracket from Harley.

 

I’ve been dabbling in the stock market the last few weeks. Made a quick couple hundred bucks and cashed out for some mod money. I don’t feel bad about spending it now haha

 

Post pic of license plate. Been tryin to figure out what to do with mine. Not sure if I wanna get one of those that attaches to the fender or put it vertical near the swing arm


Edit: nvm it took a while to load I see it now

 

1. How did you do your license plate flip?
2. Is there a specific bracket from Harley to do the mirror flip? If so you got a link?

 

The license is two parts. The part that attaches to the lights... and the other part that attaches to that.
The license plate is held on by one bolt. Just unscrew it and relocate the license plate that’s not attached to the bottom.

 

no link. Just call HBharley ... and go into parts. That’s what I did.

 

I most certainly will not call HB Harley for anything, ever. I’d rather drive to Irvine or Fullerton because fuck HB Harley.
