I decided to put them back on to see if the problem I had came back... it didn't, also I enjoyed the look with them on the side more, but I find them more useful pointed up. I will be going back to the stock mirrors, they've grown on me. Blush

Actually, I found a website that has rearsets for the CB11

What is the little black bag for ? Too small for luggage.

Some of you might find this funny or completely unnecessary ha, but that little bag came with my McCuff,

http://www.mccuff.com/

it's to used top off your tank when you fill up. I'm not sure about other states but most pumps here in Cali have a rubber boots on the nozzle that needs to be compressed in order to pour gas in your tank, makes it a pain in the butt trying to top off. With the McCuff it's easy to top off the first try without worrying of over filling or scratching the inside of your tank.

I also keep an allen wrench in there incase the mirrors come loose


RE: Bar End Mirrors - the Ferret - 05-07-2013

Huh, we dont have those kind of gas nozzels in Ohio that I have seen.

CA has a bunch of stuff that is nowhere else in the country/world. Somehow the CARB Nazis here seem to know what's best for us better than anyone else in the country/world.
