A quickie,
Are the Ryca 1" bars meaty enough to turn down the ends to 7/8"? Found some mirrors I like. Just open thinking here. Thanks!

I'd be shocked if they have more than an eighth inch wall. Machine away to 7/8ths? Bad idea. I'd never mess with bars like that. Machine in and create a stress area , cracks you can not even see can start, you'll open the steel up to the elements by cutting the chrome.. Even IF the walls would leave a 1/8th wall in the machined area, I would not..

Look at modifying the mirrors.. if they fail, you can ride away..
Or find some that fit.

Have an aluminum plug made and pin it to the bars.
