Do Emgo mirrors actually say Emgo on them?

Post by fenix793 »

I need to get a pair of mirrors for my FZR since the originals were removed by the PO. I've read that the YZF mirrors are the ones to get and I've been looking at the Emgos but it looks like they actually have the Emgo logo stamped in them which sorta turns me off. Amazon has pictures of mirrors with and without the logo so I'm a little confused. Can someone who owns a set let me know?

The ones I had did have EMGO stamped in the front. Didn't bother me... Would rather have the EMGO logo than cheap mirrors that shook so bad that they were not even worth having.

Oh, you must have ridden my bike before. Damn PO's and eBay parts...
1994 FZR600R Molested and rigged by the PO... BUT, I got her cheap, and she runs pretty good so I can't really complain!

Nope - did it to myself. Someone had to be the guinea pig...

For those wondering which ones I bought and found completely worthless - here ya go! They vibrated so bad, you couldn't make out any images in the mirrors.

My suggestion would be to go with some 01-03 GSXR mirrors using the FZR bases and some washers. That's what I did.

Old Pics but you get the point:

The stick out further. Don't vibrate much. I can see behind me as well (and not just me elbows).
