Mirror Problems

I ordered new mirrors (#8,9) and new supports( #10) and the mirrors won't screw in. Have they changed something over the years? The mirrors seem 1mm bigger than the support.

The new Kawasaki Z750 / 800 mirrors are way better design and styling for the Superduke and fit straight on.

Threads on OE brackets and mirrors have not changed - they are all standard diameters and threads.

Not quite sure what you mean by 1mm too big. Do you mean the thread, the OD or depth of thread?

I don't think anything has changed over the years.

From out of the west rode Jimmy the Freak with his 28 pounds of hanging meat.
There was one bad thing to this good trick .
The Lord had blessed him with a cork screw dick.
So all over the east Jim did hunt , to find the girl with a cork screw c##t.
Eventually he found her and got her to bed , what a bastard left hand thread.
