VFR mirrors, any other options?
Just purchased a 2000 model VFR. It needs a set of mirrors and I was hoping I could find a set that would mount correctly other than the godforsaken rubber boots. Is there anything else that will has the same mounting holes?

I've seen one or two ads for rc51 mirrors that also say they'll fit the vfr, but was a little leary until i had a more definite answer.

Actually, the Y2K models came with "condomless" mirrors. A previous owner has replaced yours with the pre-2000 "condom" type...which suck.

Buy a set of Honda OEMs and you will be happy, they look nice and are more vibe free than the aftermarkets....

Edit:
I went out to take a picture, but my bike is so freaking covered with bugs I didn't. Anyway, the "condom" free mirrors look nice...

Actually, it was missing the mirrors altogether. Ron Ayers and Bike Bandit both show the booted mirrors for the 2000 in their diagram, and your right, they do suck. Looks like my girlfriend's F2.

Ebay's got a set of the y2k mirrors for $100. Bit expensive but may have to go that route.

Damn....I forgot what I paid, but it was during a group buy. Pretty sure you can get them brand new for $100....

Thought that was a bit steep. Maybe why they've been posted for over a month now.
