on a quick test fit they seemed to not work on the cb1100.
anyone have one that is usable ??
No I have a different set that worked on my ST but wont work on the CB. Now that I have added the Oxford heated grips to the ST probably won't work on that either due to the controller for the grips. Will have to see.
Had a set of HippoHands years ago..Problem was the front of them leaked in air no matter how much I tried to tighten them down...Not useless, but almost..
The original Vetter Hippo Hands were awesome until your speed got up so high that the air pressure made them put on the front brake lol.

My brother had the same issue on his Yamaha last uear with a set I got him and he made some guards like the motgp riders use.


Here you can see mine on the ST..

they are Kolpins but they work because the mirrors on the ST are part of the fairing and not on the bars (see the bank sign in the background?)

they work when it's pretty cold out (close up of bank sign lol)
