748 Mirror Blanks

Discussion in 'Wanted' started by chizel, Dec 8, 2016.

  1. good morning team,
    I have asked this before some time ago but no joy then, but I'm awake and bored and thinking of my 748.
    anyone know where I could get such a thing? Used to be able to and can for the later models but I've hunted on the web and nada.
     
  2. The 748-9** blanks used to be available from the US but they seem to no longer be advertised.

    I have seen some where someone made a set using plastic disposable spoons (!) as a mould and then fibreglassing a set up. I checked out the shape of the spoons once out of interest and it does seem viable.

    Maybe a winter project for someone!

  5. that's a 1098 one and the sort of thing I had in mind. Obviously the curve would have the follow the 748 fairing.
     
  6. A quick Google showed these. One looks like it is for a 748-9**, although the master cylinder doesn't look quite right and the other is for an MV Augusta, I know some models did use FAR mirrors so these may fit. A rather extravagant £30 odd touch it seems.

  7. cool, I've just emailed em to see if they will fit. That's exactly what I need and the right color too!
     
  8. Plastic number plate screws should work for the budget option. Only available in yellow, black or white though...
