0:28 The best description of flush fit indicators I've ever heard. I hate the bloody things.
Also thinking of doing turn signal mirrors. the flush mount indicators are cool but people cant see then so they dont know your turning. thats where the mirror indicators are soooo much better
Couldn't agree more! The flush mount video will be coming next, the units are from TST and should be plug and play but the wiring on the UK / European bikes is different so it's a little more involved! 😬
@@FrontWheelUp so you will keep the mirror with indicators and run flush mount with them? i saw in the Haynes repair manual they have different wiring diagrams. will wait for your new video.. keep up the good content.
Yup! The flush fit have day time running lights in them too so there will be a little bit of extra wiring involved.
Thanks for your kind words. 👍
Cool. Thanks man!
Very good video i needed that
Glad it helped you out. I've had some trouble with the mirrors unfortunately, I'm looking for something yo replace them at the moment.
I have a 2021 Yamaha MT-07 and I not only want to be heard, I definitely want to be SEEN. I would like to install a set of turn signal mirrors on my bike, while either keeping the original turn signals or buying a set of flush mounted ones from TST industries. My plan is to have 2 sets of turn signals in the front and back. Do you have any advice as how to install the turn signal mirrors? Great video. Consider me a subscriber.
Ride Safe my friend
Great video! I’ve installed a similar pair of mirrors on my 2009 CBR but the problem I’m having is when I indicate they brightness isn’t that good. Any idea why this is or what I’m doing wrong? I’ve also got a relay installed as I’ve got the standard bulb indicators on the back.
Thank you and congrats for putting together such an informative video!
Sorry for the late reply, I've since gone through two sets of these mirrors before committing to buying a more expensive set from Tripage. Did you manage to get them sorted?
@@FrontWheelUp - absolutely no problem at all. I've managed and I'm very happy with them. Hope the link works. Thanks a lot for making this very helpful video!

I seen alot of people make that notch for the wire but I loosened up the bolt and nut and drilled a hole in the middle of the base and you get no wire pinch and wires are out of site.
That's a better idea. I'm looking for a replacement set of mirrors at the moment, I'm considering trying some bar end mirrors. 🤔
Hi mate, I’m looking to buy a pair of these and when I messaged the seller about can these mirrors fold so I can get my bike into a narrow doorway they told me no sorry these mirrors can’t fold at the stem but to me it looks like they can fold at the joint? If they do fold would I need an allen key each time I fold them in?
Hi, yeah the ones I have do fold in a fashion, if you have the bolt set at just the right tightness. Too little and they are pushed in by the wind when moving and too tight it flexes the front cowl. Also because of how the wires are its impossible to get a full fold in without damaging the wire (if you wire them the same as I did that is). I can comfortably fold mine in just enough so they are level with the handlebars width.
I've been keeping my eyes open for a better option as I'm not still not 100% on them, but for the price they are hard to beat.
@Front Wheel Up Thanks mate, just as I thought but they keep telling me no sorry they won’t fold and I’ve tried 3 messages now to explain I can see they can fold so I thought I’d ask you just to make sure.
Can you do me a favour and just have a look at the ones I want on eBay and tell me are these the same cause they look it.

@Front Wheel Up I won’t be using them as indicators I just love how they look so i would cut the wire off.
@Front Wheel Up they never gave a reason why they meant they don’t fold so it’s probably because of the wires. I know it sounds crazy I don’t want them as working indicators but my mirrors on the TLR are losing paint and I wanted some that looks different and I like the shape.
They look the same bud but the base is different to what was on the CBR mirrors so can't be 100% sure they will fold the same.
nice series. where did you got the wire diagram book?
Sorry for the late reply, its the Haynes manual...you should be able to find one easily on eBay.
What year is that cbr? My cbr 600 doesn’t have hazard option
Its a 2008. I belive the hazard option was only available on the European spec bikes, though I could be wrong. 👍
Ahhh, lucky! 😅
I've seen the mirrors either way so I think it's just what u prefer I put mine on just like this guy did and I'm not switching um lol to much work
These things have driven me mad since I first saw a comment suggesting they were the wrong way around!
They are an unusual shape, if you put them the other way from the front they do actually look better....but the other way (like in the video) they look like they should be that way when your riding the bike and look at them.
I did swap them around in the end but I'm still not happy with them. 🤣
I plan to swap them out for something better...once I find something, most of the aftermarket 600RR mirrors are pretty ugly.
Please provide a link to the mirrors used for this video
I purchased them atleast a year ago so can't be 100% sure, but these ones appear to be the same. Hope this helps. 👍

@@FrontWheelUp thank you! I'm assuming I can splice these in to my existing flush mount signals? Did you have to install a relay for them to flash normal speed?
My pleasure.
You can, I have a video on that too if you want to take a look. You may need a relay, I didn't but the relay that was on my bike wasn't OEM.
I think you installed them backwards
Maybe? The shape of the mirror looks correct when sitting on the bike, the curved part of the glass doesn't look right at the top.
Who knows. 🤔
