  • Put on the 98+ mirrors on the 97 Kat......it looks awesome..

    So finally got my bike out of its hallowed hibernation and did an oil change......purged the gas tank and put in a fresh tank......replaced my stock OEM 97 mirrors with the 98+ mirrors from e-bay.....needed some tweaking but it worked fine...pictures should be on soon ....then the BEST PART.....rode about 60 miles today in the backroads of West St. Louis....the weather was nice...not too hot not to cold.....got the cobwebs outta the carbs....and she was a sweeeetttt ride.....tell ya it was better than sex........ ! thought I never would say that. LOL anyways just wanted to share.

            I'll bet it looks something like this:

              I do like the mirrors..they look a lot better than the stock ones...I'm looking into changing mine to something more modern looking..

                If you can find a set of 91-94 1100 Kat mirrors, they are even nicer, imho. You have to find them used tho cuz they are quite expensive at a dealers.
                I don't have a short temper. I just have a quick reaction to bullshit.

                    You have to elongate the holes in the mirrors. No mods needed to the fairings.

                      Those 98 mirrors do look nice. One of mine has some scratches on it, maybe I should get a new one.

                        you'll pay out the arse at a dealer thats for sure. picksings are probably slim on ebay for these, but u never know.

                            Speaking of which Lou, I want to color match my mirrors. I would do it myself but someone has me making license plate brackets and taillight lens.

                            What could you do for me????

                              Send me the mirrors, and I will paint them Barbie Pink.

                              That way you will match with Needs Barbie Pink Cowl and Lower Fairing!
