CRG Bar End Mirrors Buyers Guide
www.revzilla.com/crg-mirrors?u...
CRG got their start developing some of the most advanced levers on the market and they apply that same dedication and drive to creating some of the highest quality mirrors in the moto-market. Utilizing high grade aluminum, CNC machined in-house, coupled with stainless steel hardware, and custom convex glass formed to their own specification, these mirrors offer the perfect balance between the riders field of vision and image magnification. And if all of that is not enough, they are fully rebuildable with replacement glass kits.

[@glenjamin2703]

Tip: When tightening the adaptor on the throttle side, leave a tiny gap between the adaptor and the grip then tighten. This way your throttle won’t stick.

[@Nadindel]

Lol if I didn't watch this video I would of been calling you guys saying you only shipped me one mirror!! just ordered the second one

[@jakeford2324]

I have the CRG Arrow mirrors. Excellent mirror. I have one on the left and right, but if I'd had known how good the field of view was before I purchased them I would have only bought one. There are more than 2 up and down detente positions. And the arrow shape can be rotated 180 to be positioned over the grip, or instead of mounting the bar mount in the standard mirror up ornamentation, flip it over and then you get the same range of options but under the bar. These are excellent mirrors, and have no buzz at any time in any RPM (FZ-09). They are much more usable than I had expected.

[@RevZilla]

I had them on my Street Triple and totally agree with you. The only downside is they are a little pricey. -TeamZilla AJ

[@001Rupes]

Great video. Now I'm going to ask the mechanic for the mirror he said broke (or otherwise a very major discount), seeing that replacement mirrors are available. I never knew they were re-buildable.

[@andrewgomez5184]

epic review now i know exactly what mirrors i want for my build! elite ch 80 custom

[@silasmarner7586]

On my cammy vintage Triumph twin the LS mirror vibrated.. that extra joint was just too much. The non-LS Hindsight however was perfect. It's fine no matter what. Short and easy to secure. I even bent it accidentally and it was easy to repair. I recommend the non LS unless your bike is fairly smooth running then I couldn't see a problem with it.

[@babydyke416]

Will these mirrors or rather can you use the 3" round CRG 7/8 with bar end blinkers?

[@QaysShashaa]

I got the Arrow Mirrors for my MT07 and while I was mounting them to my bar end slider I used a 3mm Allen Key on not only the clamping screw but also the screw that pivots the mirror up and down. I ended up completely removing the screw on both sides and putting it back on now it doesn't click and wobbles if I try to adjust it. I went back to stock mirrors till I can figure out a way to repair them. Is there a way to get them to adjust again or once you remove the pivoting screw they are junk? Thanks guys

[@BlueDevilMoto]

Just got my mirrors stolen. Do these have a lower probability of being stolen since they use the allen keys instead of the twist-off OEM mirrors?

[@Ender.wigginn]

I think it would be cool if they made something similar to the arrow, but with both a hindsight and a blindsight mirror on it. I love the styling of bar end mirrors, especially on sport and supersport bikes, but they just don't offer the same field of view as the stock mirrors. Having some nice dual lens mirrors may not increase the size of the image, but it would certainly cover both behind and blind spots on both sides. Though, I suppose no mirror is a good substitute for shoulder checks, can't trust other drivers to be safe on the roads.

[@weeverob]

Oberon makes an adapter that fits on the end of the handle bar. once fitted, a handle bar clamp style mirror and bar end turn signal can both be attached to the adapter. a video of this install would be appreciated.

[@shadowxps]

I like that you guys are smart.

[@krysistheabyss]

will they fit my 06 r6. just bought some bike master bar ends and the don't come with instructions and don't fit...

[@Edward-ko9pn]

Great video as usual. My question is as far as functionality can the bar end mirrors replace the stock mirrors on my Kawasaki Ninja 400 ?. In other words are they just as functional from a safety perspective as the stock mirrors. Thanks

[@RevZilla]

With the handlebar position of the Ninja 400, the stock mirrors are likely to be much more functional than bar end mirrors. -DrewZilla

[@ajtimothy]

Hey crew! What adaptors are needed for the 2017 Yamaha MT-09 if I am looking at the CRG Arrow. Btw are they sold individually? Thank you and love from Australia

[@RevZilla]

I've linked the necessary adaptors, and yes, mirrors and adaptors are sold individually. You would need two mirrors and two adaptors. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-arrow-bar-end-mirror *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-billet-internal-adapter-for-crg-bar-end-mirror

[@DigiPowerPT]

Please help. I have a 2007 Ducati Monster S2R 800. What kind of adapter do I need? 7/8 or 1" ? Thank you!

[@bikesandfamily3082]

hi i am having trouble. exactly says on your website that the adaptor isnt compatible with mt09 can you confirm?

[@bikesandfamily3082]

hi is the crg arrow compatible with mt07 and mt09? i want to get the arrow for my mt07 and just move it to my mt09 when i sell my mt07. thankjs

[@Minnesota418]

can you put on a cantilevered hand guard with these?

[@Yohnie125]

cool so i have to buy the adapter aswell as the mirror very cool

[@msjackson1023]

RevZilla I own a 2013 zx10r and I want to purchase some bar ends and I'm seriously considering these...i found some at my local dealership but they did not expand large enough and also the inside of my handlebars are rigged..would I just need the crg adapter or would I need to buy something else as well? Thanks you guys rock

[@SpurgeonDunbar]

msjackson1023 So the mirrors themselves are designed to fit on a 7/8" diameter handlebar (This is what is stock on your ZX-10R). If you do not have room at the end of your particular clip-ons (Chances are if you are running a stock set up you will not) you can use the adapter to "extend" your clip-ons and replace your bar end weights. They mount to the inner diameter and expand for a nice secure fit. I have used these on a couple of different bikes now and I will say on some handlebars you do have to drill out the inner stops where the stock bar end weights mount to. Once that is completed (If needed) the adapter should be your solution.

[@rallyzamora8356]

Love the CRG'S, now do they have one for the Triumph T100? Seems the Triumph has a thick bar

[@RevZilla]

If you T100 has 1" bars, you need the 1" adapters to make them work. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-billet-internal-adapter-for-crg-bar-end-mirror

[@Kiraslite]

Are the adapters weighted at all? I like the clean look of the mirrors being the last thing on my bars but i'm afraid of the instability at highway speeds of not having the weights on the ends. If not, do i have any options to achieve that look and keep my bars weighted?

[@RevZilla]

The adapters are billet aluminum, and when added with the weight of the bar-end mirrors, they act as good bar-end weights. -DrewZilla

[@glenjamin2703]

RevZilla I concur. The adaptor and mirror add up to just about the same weight as most stock bar ends.

[@mrtakeitbackbabyhester6954]

Question. Will after market bar ends, for instance (driven) bar ends fit while the crg bar end mirrors are on.

[@RevZilla]

Mrtakeitback babyhester Only if you move all the controls inward on the bars to expose an inch or so of the bar ends on which to mount the mirrors. Most people don't want to go through the hassle of moving controls, so they use the CRG Billet Internal Adapters as bar end inserts, which creates a perch on which to mount the bar end mirrors. Like the bar end mirrors, the adapters are sold individually, so if you want two mirror and/or two adapters, you order a quantity of 2. If you use the CRG Billet Adapters, you cannot use other bar ends. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-billet-internal-adapter-for-crg-bar-end-mirror

[@prostho_zo]

Will the Arrow mirrors fit my '15 Monster 821? What difference do the adapters make

[@RevZilla]

Yes, the Arrow mirrors fit the Monster 821. If you use the adapters, you do not need to move the levers, switch housings, and grips inward on the handlebars. However, there isn't a whole lot of room on the bars to do that, so I recommend the adapters. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-arrow-bar-end-mirror *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-billet-internal-adapter-for-crg-bar-end-mirror

[@chuckpichi]

Do u need the CRG Billet Internal Adapter for the grom?

[@RevZilla]

Due to the internal threading, that adapter won't work. Most Grom riders I know of will just nudge the stock grips over about a quarter of an inch and mount the mirrors directly to the bar. -TeamZilla Chris

[@zacharynorman397]

So I am clear, if I use the adapters, I will not need to cut or move my grips on either side, right? I am not looking to start cutting grips.

[@RevZilla]

Correct. By using the adapters, you do not need to cut or move your grips. -DrewZilla

[@crossofintimidation]

"You'll want lane splitting mirrors for when you're in states that it is legal, such as California...and Europe."

[@Procxlite]

@Ezequiel Leonidas @RevZilla yo delete these scammers

[@Antonio_zx6r]

He said state like California or European country where lane splitting is legal. Nice try, though 🤡

[@jefflemoine1787]

Are these mirrors compatible with LidLox helmet holders.

[@davvyross3661]

Hello, I own a 2017 KTM 1290 Superduke R. I am very interested in purchasing the CRG Hindsight Lane splitter mirrors. However, before I purchase, are you able to give me some more information about whether they are suitable for my bike please?I am a bit nervous about vibration and weight issues?? Thankyou!

[@RevZilla]

Yes, they're suitable for the Superduke R. With the V-twin, though, the engine does vibrate a bit more than other engine types. There isn't any issue with weight, though. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-hindsight-lanesplitter-bar-end-mirror *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-billet-internal-adapter-for-crg-bar-end-mirror

[@scrumpttv9068]

Another benefit to the lanesplitting one is Sub D wont break your mirror lol

[@abhijitdeshmukh45]

@RevZilla what size of Billet Internal Adapter For CRG Bar End Mirror should i buy for panigale 959??? 7/8" or 1"

[@RevZilla]

They're 7/8". -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-billet-internal-adapter-for-crg-bar-end-mirror

[@jeffreyrafaelortega2556]

I have a new Yamaha SR400 and I am really interested in the lanesplitters. I am concerned about install on the throttle side. Has anyone had any experience with this bike or any issues? What other adapters will I need to do the whole install? Thanks for the help!

[@RevZilla]

It looks like you would need to slice the grip ends if you have closed-end grips. Then you should be able to use CRG's bar end insert adapters to create a mounting point for each mirror. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-billet-internal-adapter-for-crg-bar-end-mirror *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-hindsight-lanesplitter-bar-end-mirror

[@ninjakat8922]

I'm planning on starting a Gilera runner SP (2007) project (nothing's more fun than a highly tuned 2 stroke racing scooter :P) and was wondering if this would fit the stock handlebar. I've been looking everywhere for the handlebar dimentions to know if it fits or needs an adapter but couldn't find it anywhere

[@RevZilla]

Gilera isn't available here in the US, so we don't have that data either. The best thing to do would be to measure your own handlebar to be sure. -DrewZilla

[@ninjakat8922]

Yeah I would but I'm away this month so I cannot and i was hoping to get the mirrors from the UK. Do you ship to Italy so that I order them when I get back?

[@RevZilla]

Yes, we do ship to Italy. -DrewZilla

[@hunterplax7081]

What size Allen key is needed for the adapter?

[@lpdr0k]

how are the arrow mirrors at high speed? maybe 200kph+ ?

[@swifttone]

The arms on the CRG Arrows have more than the 2 positions you've described. They actually can do about 270 degrees.

[@SpurgeonDunbar]

SwiftTone You are absolutely correct. You'll notice that right after I talk about the two position click of the arm I talk about being able to change the mirror positioning. The mirror itself can be rotated on the mounting point where the arm joins the back of the mirror base. Is this what you were referring to?

[@swifttone]

The arm can rotate about 270 degrees relative to the mounting clamp to the bar. The mirror can rotate 360 relative to the arm and can be tilted as well.

[@SpurgeonDunbar]

SwiftTone That's interesting. I wonder if they changed it. Ours definitely only had two main points. How old are your Arrows?

[@swifttone]

I bought mine a week ago. If you go to CRG's website you can actually see the Arrows in 4 positions. I think there is at least 6 positions.

[@SpurgeonDunbar]

SwiftTone www.constructorsrg.com/mirrors/arrow/arrow_01.html - There it is! Thanks for the update!

[@JahR96732]

Could you put the lane splitting mirror on the bar end of a dual sport Handel bar with the hand guards

[@RevZilla]

yes, if you lid the grip up a bit, it could clamp on to the bar between the grip and the hand guard mount. That said, I don't like it's chances of surviving true off-road duty where you are likely to drop your bike multiple times in a day. -Zack

[@baderalmoayed9418]

Hi guys, I own a 2018 ducati monster 1200 s planning to fit a bar end mirrors and Wanted to ask what bolt size did to use to replace that where used for OEM mirrors Thanks

[@RevZilla]

The stock bar end bolts are M6x65. The stock mirror mount bolts are a standard thread M8x25 and a left-thread M8x25. If you want shorter bolts after you remove the stock mirrors, you would need shorter M8 and left thread M8 bolts. -DrewZilla

[@Jdogger1979]

I have one, but i want a second one... is there a left and right? I have the crg arrow... There is no designation on the box

[@RevZilla]

They are reversible, so each can be used on either the right or the left. They're sold individually, so you'd just order one more and mount it on the side of your choice. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-arrow-bar-end-mirror

[@darkknight17]

Which mirror type would you recommend for a Yamaha R1? I am interested in functionality. Many thanks

[@ornn6177]

ones you like the look of

[@darkknight17]

@@ornn6177 I went for the arrow shaped mirrors in the end. Best investment ever 👍🏼

[@wretchlikeme5321]

If I remove bar end weights to install mirrors won't that affect the harmonics of the bars?

[@RevZilla]

Generally, no, it won't affect it, as mirrors make up for the lost weight of the bar end weights. -DrewZilla

[@user-nm7cv5ls8c]

Will they fit my 2018 cb500f without modification? Because the bar end weights spin

[@RevZilla]

You would need to replace the bar end weights with CRG's adapters. Additionally, you would need to see if your bar end weights are a pressure fit or screw into a welded nut inside the bar. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-billet-internal-adapter-for-crg-bar-end-mirror

[@sammy6blades]

I've been thinking about bar ends for my BMW K1300S because I have noticed that the stock mirrors don't give me that great of a view. I don't know if it's because my shoulders are that wide or because the stock mirrors are too far forward and don't give me enough of a reflection angle to work with. If I do go with a bar end, I'm guessing I'll need to eliminate the stock mirrors. Since BMW also mounts their turn signals in the mirrors, can you guys suggest a stock mirror eliminator and turn signal re-location kit to go along with the bar ends? I definitely want something that will be consistent with the fit and finish of the K1300S.

[@SpurgeonDunbar]

sammy6blades I have been doing some research for you, Sammy, and this is what I have found. First and foremost, I could find no one that makes a mirror/turn signal eliminator for your bike. I went through a couple different BMW forums and did a few internet phone calls. If you want to eliminate those mirrors you might need to get creative and come up with your own kit and then install something like R&G Arrow turn signals somewhere on the fairing. There is no doubt that the CRG mirrors would match the fit and finish of your Beemer, however, the turn signal situation might be a heavier lift than you are looking for. I would recommend checking some K1300S Forums to see if anyone else has done this. With that being said, I did find a solution to your original problem of not being able to see past your shoulders with your stock mirrors. Apparently this is a regular complaint from K1300S users and a company called SW-Motech has mirror wideners to solve this issue. While we carry the SW-Motech brand, we currently do not have this product. However, I checked with our friends over at Twisted Throttle and they have a few in stock: www.twistedthrottle.com/sw-motech-mirror-wideners-bmw-k1300s-k1200s I would recommend reaching out to them to see if they could help you out with a set. Please let me know if there is anything else we can do for you on our end! Cheers!

[@sammy6blades]

Oh wow, excellent. I wasn't expecting all the research on your end. Another reason why you guys are awesome. Thank you very much. I'll see what I can come up with.

[@sebastiansanchez3248]

How can I install those mirrors if my handlebars are not hollow (2016 r1)?

[@RevZilla]

You would need to move the grips and switch housings slightly inward on the clip-ons, in order to expose enough the bar-end on which to mount the bar-end mirrors. -DrewZilla

[@carlcook2911]

Would these be as safe as the stock mirrors on a Moto Guzzi Stone V7 3?

[@RevZilla]

It depends how good your visibility is with the stock mirrors. Bar end mirrors are placed wider than the stock mirrors, so they can provide a wider view and/or less obstructed view if you find your arms taking up too much visual space in your stock mirrors. However, with bar end mirrors, you do need to look down from your forward view more in order to see the mirrors. -DrewZilla

[@thebeardedcanadianadventures]

Do I need the adapter for a 2017 Triumph Street Scrambler?

[@RevZilla]

If you feel like moving the controls inward on your bars to make space on the ends to clamp the mirrors, then you don't need the adapters. That can be a bit of a pain, though, so most people just use the adapters. -DrewZilla

[@nashhannam9936]

would this fit a honda cbr650r 2021

[@01phantomx]

Do you do UK shipping as people selling these on eBay want to charge me $80 to post a couple of mirrors to the UK!

[@RevZilla]

Yes, we do ship to the UK. Shipping cost depends on size, weight, and value. Some brands may not be shipped to certain destinations due to manufacturer restrictions. If you have selected an item that cannot be shipped internationally, we will inform you in the checkout process on our site. Please see our International Orders Page (rvz.la/intl-order) for more details. -DrewZilla

[@bxl1121]

Will these fit on 2004 Suzuki SV650? Thanks!

[@RevZilla]

Yes, but you'll need to move the hand controls inward on the handlebar to make room for the bar end mirror to mount. Alternately, you can use the bar end internal adapters to provide a mounting point for the mirrors. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-billet-internal-adapter-for-crg-bar-end-mirror

[@killingmaxin]

Im interested on buying this for my 2003 yamaha r6, will it need the adapter?

[@RevZilla]

Unless you want to move your controls and grips inward on the clip-ons to expose an area to clamp the mirrors, you'll need the adapters. Almost everyone who uses these mirrors uses the adapters. -DrewZilla

[@killingmaxin]

the adapter is incluided on the package of the mirrors?

[@jasonrobertsutliff]

[@blackkodoku1488]

hi, just wondering.. will it not fold at high speed?

[@RevZilla]

+Black Kodoku No, they won't fold automatically. There's a good amount of friction that holds the mirrors in place. -DrewZilla

[@107abhijitd]

@revzilla are these mirrors compatible with ducati 959 panigale ?

[@RevZilla]

Yes, but you'd want to use the CRG bar end internal adapters as well. Mirrors and inserts are sold in single quantities, so you would need two mirrors and two inserts. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/crg-billet-internal-adapter-for-crg-bar-end-mirror

[@hossman8499]

The arrow actually has at least a 180 degree movement for the arm, not just 2 clicks like you said.

[@jessicaallison4093]

Will these fit my 2016 Vulcan S?

[@RevZilla]

Since your Vulcan's bar-end weights are attached to a threaded slug inside the ends of the handlebar, you cannot use CRG's Internal Adapter as a mounting point for the bar-end mirrors. The other mounting option is to move the controls inwards, but it appears there is not enough space on the handlebars to be able to move your switch housings and hand grips inwards enough to provide enough space at the bar ends for these mirrors to mount. -DrewZilla

[@busansanai]

they don't seem like convex mirrors, are they?

[@RevZilla]

+VroomToRaftel Yes, they are convex mirrors, but they don't distort the image as much as those auto parts store stick-on mirrors do. -DrewZilla

[@xianjun4243]

Hi, will they fit the street twin without the adapters?

[@RevZilla]

Yes, you just need to move the controls inward on the handlebars, so that you have space to mount the bar end mirrors on the ends of the bars. -DrewZilla

[@freemaysin5088]

Renegade Agents i'm all down for revzilla, awesome site, but this the 1st bullshit i've called on them. Billet or not, on handlebars, if you go down, they go down. Pick some up on amazon for 10$ they are literally the same only stainless, sorry rev, this is the only thing i've found like this overpriced on your site.

[@renegadeagents]

Looking more into it it's CGR, not necessarily Rev. They're the most expensive folding bar ends I've seen, plus on my Triumph I would need the CRG adapters for my 1" bars, that's another $40. Nearly $200, no thanks. But I've not seen them MUCH cheaper anywhere else. If you want CRG you have to pay, is it worth it though? I'm not sure it is.

[@freemaysin5088]

+Renegade Agents I'm not hatin on Rev btw, bought alot of stuff at better price than I found anywhere else. but a mirror on the end of a handlebar? you go down, it goes down, billet steel or aluminum, don't matter. I paid 10$ for mine, same exact design, folding, came with 2 adapters. I just can't see this specific item being so expensive! kinda feel like a dick now commenting on their page like this, but they have my business and will continue too haha.

[@privateundisclosed4448]

@Revzilla you gave ZERO instruction as to how you get the perfect hold on the bars to slide in the pieces!

are you an idiot ?

[@ecrusch]

Or, you can buy about 14 pairs of the cheapo knock-offs from Amazon for two of these... Com-on Spurge...

[@Scootir185]

Eric Rusch Sr - yes you can, and then you can be constantly unhappy with them as they vibrate, rust, fog, fall off or whatever issue they suffer from cheap build and materials. I’ve used a number of CRG’s mirrors and they are solid, vibration free and last. Worth the investment IMHO.

You don’t have to have a beard to wrench, and you definitely don’t have to be a man either! For some background, here’s Lemmy’s account of the history of the BSD: _“I love telling the story of it. I was sitting around the airport with some colleagues - among them were two of the co-founders of Revzilla. We were trying to come up with some way of quantifying how difficult something was, so I suggested how many BEERS it takes to get through a job. I was misheard, and it became BEARDS, which was funny because Mike C., one of our H-D geniuses, was present, and he has a wizard-esque beard. He laughed and liked it, and believe it or not, the outline of the guy you see in the graphic is actually the outline of Mike's head!”_ Hope this helps! -DrewZilla
