FZ-1 Mirror Install

[jeff_connors]

My 09 mirrors are not cutting it so want to install FZ1's. The stock mirrors come off but are they attached to extenders? If so, the FZ mirrors do not line up with the extenders. Remove extenders? I have read a lot of post about the upgrade but don't see anything about the exact install instructions.

Thx.

Step 1 remove stock mirrors
Step 2 install fz1 mirrors
The end.
2 nuts off, 2 nuts back on for each.

I think you are referring to the mirror base which allows the mirror to swivel, unless you have a separate extender. The base attaches to the front subframe with two long bolts and two nuts/washers.

Are you sure you got FZ1 Gen1 mirrors? 2006 and up are not compatible.

Sounds simple. Removing the Tupperware is the work.

No Tupperware removal. Just the black plastic dash panels.

These are the Yamaha OEM part numbers for the correct FZ1 mirrors taken from the boxes. I have used these mirrors on both my 2007 and 2014 FJR's.
5LV-26280-00
5LV-26290-00

Fwiw, the emgo variety is just as good and way cheaper.
