I tried 6 sets of mirrors and they're all rubbish! Oxford Horizon Bar End Mirror Initial Impression

This video is my initial impressions of the Oxford bar end mirrors.
A proper review is coming soon!
I've tried the following mirrors on the GSX-S1000 now.
1. Stock Suzuki mirrors
2. Ducati Streetfighter
3. HJR Bar-end mirrors
4. KTM 1290 Superduke mirrors
5. Ducati Performance Billet Mirrors
6. Oxford Horizon Bar Ends
I find the mirrors either don't look great, look ok by themselves but don't suit the bike or they don't give good vision. Some of them aren't high or wide enough and one set just buzz and blur everything. Ironically those are by far the most expensive mirrors that give the worst view of all.
Initial impressions for the oxford horizon mirrors are good!

Thanks, I’ve bought bought a pair anyway, I’m sure I can fettle some kind of fitting if needed. Thanks for the video, I was part way into buying a cheaper set,but, buy good, buy once.

I have basic bar end mirrors on my gsx, although the blue tint mirror glass is small the vision is ok and certainly looks so much better with the style of bike.

Have you got a link? Amazon or eBay? I'd like to take a look.

Try the large oval-ish Fenrir mirrors. Best rear view mirrors of any kind I've ever used! "FENRIR CNC Aluminum Alloy Cafe Racer Retro Black Motorcycle Bar End Mirrors Side 22MM 7/8" Handlebar Mirror Universal Rear View For M8/M6 Standard Sport Naked Street Bike Cruiser Minimoto Scooter" ...I BARELY see my elbows in them and BOTH can see everything behind me.

I had these and you're right, the visibility was great! But, they don't suit the style of this bike and many other modern looking bikes. Guess that's objective though!

Do they come with multi fittings as I can’t find any site that allows me to enter Z900? Thanks

Mine only came with one set of fittings, to replace the stock bar ends. If you have a hollow tube handlebar then these fittings will work for you. If you have a manufacturer fitted captive thread then you may need to make some adaptation.
