I just bought some bar end mirrors but don't know how to extract the bar plug. I'm a nut about retaining all things I remove from my bikes and I don't want to damage or destroy the plug in the process of installing the mirrors; does anyone out there have any experience with this procedure??

I don't think there are plugs. The bars seem to be solid, so you would have to figure out a different way to attach the bar ends. I've seen them on 907's so I know it can be done. Perhaps you would remove them from the bike and drill and tap the ends.

No plugs??? WTF??!! :ugh: So, you're telling me I gotta get me a big 'ol drill bit and ream out the bar ends. Aw come on! There's gotta be a better way!

The first Paso mirrors had the plug in fixing.
The last mirrors are the same of Cagiva Freccia C9 and they are fixed to the fairing.
You must to screw the 3 nuts!

Not sure whether you're talking about attaching to the fairing or the bar ends. Do you mean removing the stock mirrors and adding ones that extend farther from the fairing?

Gents,

I'm talking about adding a bar end mirror because as we all know the fairing-mounted mirrors are worthless. At this point I'm thinking I may have to drill 'em out!!

I actually rather enjoy looking at my elbows or the mrs' knees when she accompanies me ... :laugh:

But I think the ends might need to be drilled out, same as on my 750. I went to install a pair of bar-end weights when I took it off the road a couple months ago, and those end-plugs weren't budging without invasive surgery, unfortunately.

I haven't drilled them out yet, either.

If you go to the gallery - Album: 001498 - you'll see a chap has posted a couple of pictures of his 907 ie with bar end mirrors. Worth trying to see if he's still active on the message board etc before you ake the drill to the bars!!

Look down at the bottom of this url and it looks like bar end mirrors that use a clamp on the outside of bars. No need to drill.
