    Any idea on where to find KTM RC8R Mirrors?



    12 69012041100 MIRROR R/S CPL. W. FLASHER $318.49 $273.90 Expected to Ship in 4-9 Days

    13 69012040100 MIRROR L/S CPL. W. FLASHER $309.99 $266.59 Expected to Ship in 4-9 Days

    I have had an order in for these on Motosport.com forever and they keep pushing back the date, and this last pushback didn't include a date.

    Any suggestions on where to find them?

    I would be opposed to an aftermarket option, but the bummer is they integrate the blinkers and Id rather not drill the plastics for flushmounts. Really, I don't even like the mirrors as my knuckles smash them in full lock parking lot turns, and can actually pin my throttle hand creating and... interesting situation.

    But, I have never found a good alternative.

    The pair on my bike now are both broken and glued together. The bike is pretty pristine other than the mirrors.

    Always check motorcyclespareparts.eu first for more expensive items. They're out of Germany and are much cheaper and have better access to parts immediately. Shipping is flat rate, so expensive orders are worth it.

    I had bar ends on my RC8 that looked good and worked reasonably well.

    The only problem is the front blinkers are integrated into the mirrors!

    Oh right right…I think my bar ends had integrated signals as well.

    EDIT: just found a pic...bar end mirrors and the bar end weights had integrated signals

    I do not, but the turn signals were similar to this: https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/...hoCwgIQAvD_BwE

    The mirrors were Rizoma knock offs...the polygon shape that goes up and over your hands. Kinda like this, but they must have clamped to the bar end as opposed to going in: https://cafe-racer-garage.com/produc...RoC4w8QAvD_BwE

    They're pretty good about contact. Might want to ask them for an update.

    FWIW I just bought something from them Nov 23, it shipped Nov 30 and I got it Dec 4. RC8R stuff might be more tricky not being in production anymore...

    try to stay positive, ya got 4 months before it's an "actual" issue....


    I ordered some tuning stuff from Germany last month, got hung up somewhere in the european shipping/tracking system for like 10 days, then BOOM was here in 2 days after the delay. Good luck.

    tracking says it should arrive the 26th!

    I almost wish I bought 2 pairs and re-sold a set

    Re: Any idea on where to find KTM RC8R Mirrors?

    I finally got mirrors, but I am confused by the hardware.


    The parts fiches show bolt, washer, washer, nut, splined washer?







    And they come with all those parts, but it doesn't seem right.







    The splined washer doesn't fit the mirror at all, the nut doesn't drop down in the recessed part of the mirror....

    Edit: i figures it out, the lock nut and splined washer are embedded in the faringg. Never did figure out the second flat washer though.

    Re: Any idea on where to find KTM RC8R Mirrors?

    My assumption from what I can see is that internal spline on the mirror engages something on the boss it's mounting to. Hard to infer much else without seeing the other half of the equation?
