What are the best direct bolt up mirrors for a single headlight FZR600?

The mirror stays are the same between the dual and single head light 600s. It's the fairing stay that sets them apart. YZF600R (not R6), YZF750, 94-95 FZR1000 mirrors are direct bolt on. But various mirror sets from other bikes will fit into the FZR mirror bases (with a few shims). For example, I happen to have GSXR mirrors in the FZR bases on my bike (see my sig?). Good thing is I can see completely behind me.

Best mirror, hands down, is the YZF600r (made by emgo) - direct bolt-on. You're looking at $22 or so for each mirror. Dennis Kirk has them...

You can see what they look like in the image I attached.

Cycle gear had some for $25 on closeout in their ad. They screwed into your clip-ons...

Generally a very small mirror attached to your upper fairing. Just enough to have a rear view, but small enough to blend in.

Some people also refer to the small bar end mirrors as pig spotters.

ROGO is showing some pig spotters there.

I don't believe those YZF600 mirrors you found will fit. These will:
