The OEM bar-ends are so expensive!

Thanks for the write-up.  Keep the pics coming as you add accessories to the bike.  For my new STR I'm debating if I want the bar end mirrors or a set of Rizoma mirrors that come out lower than the stock.

You can tell I'm new to Triumph as a few people have pointed out that my mirrors are mounted wrong  Lol  I guess most people have the bulk of the mirror body inwards, not outwards like I do.  I agree with people who have told me that it'll look better the other way.  I'll rotate the mirror bodies inward soon and see if I still have the visibility that I have now.

Those OEM mirrors are great.  Easy install, they come with a screw for the right side (brake reservoir support bracket screw) and a black plug for the right side so the holes from the original mirrors are finished.  Great fit and finish, zero vibration, small surface area but clear visibility behind you.

I also really like the design of them.  I almost went with the CRG mirrors, but these are a little... I don't know, a little unique in their design, sort of like the bike itself.

Better view of my incorrectly mounted mirrors...

I ordered more OEM parts.  Carbon tank pad, carbon hugger, muffler mount and passenger peg finishers, anodized axle nut cover.  My R&G fender eliminator will be here Monday.  I'm planning to order the carbon fiber upper and lower chain guards and the brake line guide as well, and that'll just about do it.
