Title: Tip over - Broken mirror
Post by: amigoride on February 22, 2015, 01:31:43 PM
Ooops! Over she went. Broken mirror.
Are there replaceable parts connecting the mirror to the attachment point inside the fairing or inside the corrugated rubber boot?
OR  do I order an entire mirror assembly?
The only listed part I found was the mirror assembly.
Embarrassed......idjit.

Don't feel bad.  That's why we have Connie Droppers Anonymous... (http://www.zggtr.org/index.php?board=9.0)
 ;)

I'd venture to guess that well over half of us have had a Connie go over at one time or another.  Mine has been over waaaay too many times, thanks to bad decisions on inclines and drunk people knocking my bike over.

Murphs has mirrors btw:

The 'elbow assembly' may require you to have to pop the glass out of the mirror frame, which by itself might be a reason to just pony up for a new mirror assembly...

  What Two Skies said. Dropped mine last fall in the garage. Clutch handle through the mirror and cracked the fairing. Wasn't really much of a job putting on a new mirror from Murphs'. Had to remove the windshield to get at the dash to move it out of the way and then a couple screws to change the mirror assembly. Hated to spend the hundred $$ but really the easiest fix. Murphs' shipped it in 2 days!   ;D
