Hey,
Some of you might know from seeing my Photos/Videos that I only use the right side Mirror,
just wondering, do anyone know of SOMETHING I can get (other than a Mirror lol)
to replace the empty thread on the left side?
I noticed on BikerBitz (I think it was) they have nice looking bolts they simply just screw in,
but I cant seem to find something like that here in the UK,
also what is the exact thread size, is it 10mm?

Back-Up Camera
Why not eliminate "both" mirrors? Fella here said he bought his at Buy.com for under $60.00. Not bad, If it works
IMO, our mirrors are the only fugly parts on our scoots.

Other than this Neat-o idea, I'm sure there's some bling type chrome cover you can screw in or snap on? But Wait!!!....Try to make use of that priority spot instead.
Thinking caps on?

Re: Mirror thread accessorie
I really really hate the Mirrors on Scooters, makes them look like a Bug with Antennas, I went awhile without any and I love the PCX Bikes without them, but found myself sometimes having to turn my head a little too much, so I put the right mirror on which I seemed to use the most.... got one of the small ones with a small stem.... but the empty bit on the left side looks horrible so wanted to fill it with something, maybe just find a 10mm bolt with a nice head on it.

Re: Mirror thread accessorie
You can probably find an appropriately sized bolt. Is there a reason you don't have your left mirror? Opposite side but I use my curb side mirror as a rear view mirror to observe traffic directly behind me as I'm rarely in the inside lane. Again, a subjective looks and convenience vs. safety issue.
That camera is an excellent idea WhiteNoise. I'm not sure if I would want to remove the mirrors but it would allow me to more aggressively angle the mirrors out to capture my blind spot and use the camera as my backup mirror. Would be a bonus if the same camera can be used as a rear facing accident dash cam.

You could get one of these, and use it to mount camera/GPS

Re: Mirror thread accessorie
I use my Camera on my Helmet, less shakey then...

Re: Mirror thread accessorie
I know you can get anodised bolts, but obviously they come in a pack, and they're bloody expensive, I only need one m10 one!
for examples... £2 for 1 small bolt
