    2 things, artjim. First, i couldnt tell a lot on that pic, but could you give me an item number, seller, or something so that i can check that out on ebay.

    Second, what about those saddlebags? Wife gave me a gift cert for father's day at a local shop. Smallest bag they had looked to me like would get burnt by the exhaust pipe. How much clearance you got there? Do your bags get hot on the bottoms? where'd you get them?

    Questions, questions, questions.....lol

    Thanks!

    I've been there bro, and I still have plenty of questions myself 8)

    The mirrors I got from Ebay, item number 360050771645.

    Chrome plated plastic heads, but no noticeable shake at highway speeds to blur the image.

    Cost me $24.99 + shipping

    I got the bags from my local yamaha dealer, they are Tour Masters.

    Cost me $116.15

    I have had no problems with clearance from the exhaust on these bags, and I do a lot of long (over 100 miles) rides several times a week besides my daily work commute of 50 miles.

    I did have to fashion a retainer to keep them from swinging into the rear tire. I used the instructions I found on HAP's website. www.maxim-x.com
