Why is it so difficult to find a darn mirror?
#1
It’s time to replace the mirrors and can’t seem to find what I’m looking for. The style is a small generic rectangle mirror on a short stem. Years ago these were everywhere. EMGO makes the mirror but it has the logo on the back,the mirror I had years ago didn’t have the logo and that’s what I’m lookong for. I’ll post a picture when I get a chance,anybody happen the know what size the threads are,I’m thinking 8 MM.

It sounds like you maybe be looking for the stock mirrors on the '91-'03 Nighthawks. I considered putting a set of these on my CB11, but ultimately the lollipops grew on me.

Nice backdrop Flynrider. Like the colour of the N.Hawk. I remember when the early 90's N.Hawks were new. I compared them to their predecessor of the early 80's. (*sigh*) [url=https://youtu.be/vC0Qt1lvLq8]Time Waits For No One.

FLYTYM, check out this old post I listed and see if the mirror is what you are looking for. http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread....#pid181596 I have a pair NIB I am not using, Honda OEM, same stamping on the mirror as the Lollipops. Stems are almost identical length angle bend to stock, same thread for direct screw in. PM if interested.

Your mirror also matches the black theme of your CB. They are somewhat stealth.
