    I've been riding a 2015 Bonneville Newchurch for the last 4 years, and as much as I *love* the bike, I've never really been happy with the mirrors. I definitely think I'll be picking up a set of bar-ends after watching this video, if not necessarily the ones you have.

      Hi BacchusZA, great to hear that you enjoyed the video and found it useful 👎
      Like you I’ve never liked the standard mirrors on my Bonneville, much prefer the bar end style. The mirror mounts also freed up locations to mount my TomTom and action camera, a win win for me 🤣

    On my 72 Bonnie I fitted similar and became the scourge of Transit type vans when filtering,at least I learned to flip them in.but definitely an improvement I feel,although unfortunately cannot fit them to my BMW RS due to the configuration of the heated grips.

      Have to remember to do that, I was filtering in heavy traffic yesterday on it and could have squeezed into tighter spaces if I’d flicked them in 🤣 Hope you enjoyed my video 🥳

    Hello Sir, I see these type of mirrors available from Hitchcocks for Classic 350 reborn. Do we need to buy an adapter for it as well or can it fit straight?

      I looked on Hitchcocks website and they don’t sell Halcyon mirrors for the Classic 350 reborn. What they do sell are Stadium mirrors which are very similar. The Stadium mirrors according to their website come with the adapter and will bolt straight on.
      The mirrors I have on my Classic 350 are the genuine Royal Enfield ones. As I have both types of mirrors on both of my bikes (Bonneville and Classic 350) I’m in a good position to form an opinion. The genuine Royal Enfield ones are brilliant, they look great, excellent visibility and rock steady vision. You do need to buy the adapters separately though for these.
      Hope this helps and you enjoyed my video 🏍️👍

      @@tigerness5555 I own a chrome bronze and therefore was looking at bar end mirrors in chrome version. With your feedback, now I know which one's to buy.Thank a lot for your kind and quick response Sir. 😊🙏

    They look nice on bar end but first time it gets knocked over they’ll be broken off.

    • @tigerness5555
      @tigerness5555  Před rokem

      That’s a risk we all take with our bikes. If they get broken I can always put the original mirrors back on 🤣
