Mirror advice

I would like to replace the mirrors on my NC29. What are the choices? All I can find are the standard ones....?

avoid all others! inc the link above.
cheap ones of ebay are crap, as you ride the engine/road vibrations wont let you see out of them, slight dink and they smash!

if i replace mirrors, i'd get honda originals.

also read the thread about cheap Chinese items, mirrors (inc the link) are in that thread.

Problem with original 400cc mirror when you fall down this mirrors quite strong, but due to this feature it is generally broke windscreen and screen brace. This one below is cheap stuff and they are folding.

i have dinged my honda mirrors loads of times, bikes been down and mirrors are still there, no damage to bike, few scuffs on mirror outer.
1 ding and the cheapo ones broke!

+1 for this comment.

Dropped bike on a diesel spill about 20mph, mirror took the brunt of the impact...

Bent the screen brace and dented the tank, screen got cracked against the break fluid res. Brace bent so much it forced the upper fairing back, causing the indicator to smash through the mid fairing panel, and snapped the section off (ie the RAM air section across the top of the fairing).

BUT

The Mirror was intact bar some scratches....
