I think the answers going to be no :augie but if I can explain..
The old boys dropped his bike 08 1200rt low speed and left h/side into a high grass verge. Ive stripped the fairings, headlight etc off to replace the plastic housing that everything seems to mount to due to a couple of broken lugs.. The left hand oil cooler bracket was bent up slightly no drama but looking at & measuring the left hand mirror outer frame tubular metal its about 1/2 or more lower than the right. Unfortunately the tubular frame isn't symmetrical so Its difficult to measure one side against the other. The mirror itself wasnt damaged as it was lower down oil cooler area (which had gone up slightly hence the confusion as to how the mirror frame above it has come down) So its a long shot possibly the longest ever :D but before i get into replacing the framework can anybody confirm that they should be even as you'd imagine they would be :thumb
 
No sorry. Although the framework is not symmetrical, when you look at the bike with the bodywork on - the panels, mirror, screen etc are all symmetrical.
