I've fitted GSXR mirrors to mine - not the integrated type though. I fitted em cos they are bigger than the shite that comes as OE on the Mk1 tens. They fit straight into the existing clamps. I doubt you will fit the later GSXR mirror without a lot of work though. They mount in a different way and at a vastly different mounting angle. They cannot even be fitted to the earlier GSXR's without a lot of work. If you mount them at the wrong angle, they just look like floppy ears.
I did ride without mirrors once on a loan bike when mine was in having work done .....never again. I like to know what's going on behind me. It's dangerous enough riding a bike - no need to up the odds on being wiped out or nicked ;)

As Charlie says the later gixer mirrors won't fit easily,  could be worth looking at others though, later fireblades, Aprilias and dukes all have integrated mirror/indys and might fit easier

Thanks for the replys guys. That's not really what i wanted to hear though - back to the drawing board i guess.

Horse mate i aint as brave as you (or as fast no doubt) therefore i would like to see the blue lights flashing behind me so i can at least not incur any more fines lol.

having no mirrors does remove the distraction of looking behind constantly albeit when I had a bike with none i felt like a bank robber on therun with the constant turning to see behind  [whistle]

The 2011 mirrors might be a better choice but I'm unsure whether they'll fit

Yes the 2011 mirrors are certainly on my wish list but gonna be rare as rocking horse poop when released no doubt, and expensive!  :shock:
