Thanks, I saw the mirrors on ebay, but was thinking I'd never find the brackets. Do you know if the mirrors are any different than the ones that would have clamped on to a later bike? I know my trail 90 has a long threaded rod and a metal sort of strap that pinches the handle bar....

Hmmm a head scratcher. You hate to buy half of something....

A guy in UK has the other half of the bracket that CMS has. I bought it last week but he cancelled the sale because someone had accused him of mis-describing it....

I'll ask him about it

The mirrors are a "257" part...

that figures... the dreaded 257 number... as scary as the 282....

Thanks!

Paul; I am also looking for these brackets. I need two sets. they are VERY hard to find. I believe most of the US bikes were simply delivered with no mirrors and the owner then did whatever it took to clamp some mirrors on. If you can find a set I would be interested in borrowing them, scanning and repopping some.
Thanks
Randy
