Genuine reproduction 719 mirrors

[Gavla04GS]

Guys is the glass area any bigger on these than the standard?? less vibration etc??

The picture below can't answer directly (for obvious reasons) but I think you'll agree there is no significant difference is glass area.

I sat on the bike on centre-stand and adjusted the mirrors to what I believe a road position. I have yet to ride out and as they were new, they are very stiff to adjust. Good robust bits of kit.

I got out Sunday for a few hours and I’m very happy with the mirrors. I’d guess surface area of glass about same with no noticeable buzz or vibration. So far, thumbs up from me.

I jumped on the bandwägen also and purchased a set of mirrors which arrived monday.

Tested on today’s commute and so far i’m impressed. looks wise they are much better than the original items (of which mine had corroded) no excess vibration and nice and solid feeling when adjusting.
The only thing that lets them down IMO is the sticker but it’s not noticeable unless up close and you know what you’re looking for compared to a genuine set. I did notice there was a spare set of stickers in my box.

The only extra thing i did was apply a corrosion preventative to the bolts and fixings as i don’t think chinese hardware is of a decent quality to last.

Time will tell how they stand up over time but overall at the price point i think they are ace! thanks to the OP for posting.

What does “genuine reproduction” mean ..
Are they genuine ?, or are they reproduction ?

IMO the rear view they provide is better than the original mirrors due to being a different shape.

Theyre a reproduction of the genuine item, hope that clears it up

My riding partner received a pair of these , £36 and delivered by airmail a few days later . Unbelievable ! He is well pleased , but the price has since gone up .

My current bike came with the 719s as standard, and I don't like them as much as the standard mirrors I had on my previous bike. They seems a bit more vibe-prone and the shape of the glass area is not as useful as the standard mirrors, because they slope in a different direction on the outside edge. So rear visibility isn't as good.

Definitely a case of form over function in my view.

They seem way over-designed, awkward looking. And that bolt hole collecting dirt. Not all Op719 parts are pretty, the front engine cover is truly hideous.

Are these any good?, anyone fitted one?

I got one of those sitting in my shed. Came off an old bike.
Yes it does work well.
