Bar end mirrors
03/05/12 at 09:13:46
I'm looking for a set of bar end mirrors to use with Ryca clip-ons. I know I've seen some pictures of them on the CS-1s. What are you all using?

The RYCA clip-ons use a one inch bar, like the stock bike, which isn't nearly as common as 7/8" bars, but you can find a variety of bar-end mirrors that are made for 1" bars.
It would also be pretty easy to make a shim to take up the extra 1/8" of space, and then you could probably use any bar-end mirror you wanted.
I looked at a lot of options for my bike, and in the end decided more traditional mirrors would suit the look of my project better, but I do know there are options out there...

you have to be careful when trying to find ones that fit the RYCA clip-ons.
I tried bar end mirrors designed for 1" bars and the thickness of the RYCA clips-on tubing is thicker than your average 1" bars, so the 1" bar end mirrors were too fat. I then tried two different brands of 7/8" bar end mirrors, and they were all too small. Seems the inner diameter of the RYCA bars are somewhere in between. I ended up going with Joker Machine bar end mirrors and they worked just fine with some modifications ( I had to mill down some of the bar insert material to fit in the ends of the clip ons). My best advice is to take a caliper and measure the inner diameter of the clip ons and go from there. Most manufacturers will list a size range that will work.. I would give more info such as brands and styles I have tried but my bike has been done for over a year and I can't remember those specifics.

Fonzie: Hey, Cunningham, which is cooler? The mirrors up like this at an angle or down like this, straight?
Richie: Well, I think you can see better with them down at an angle.
Fonzie: Hey, I don't wanna see where I've been. I wanna see how cool I look getting there!
