but bear in mind RC mirrors are too thin on the ground and new ones are 60 quid a pair. or as someone else mentioned, NS400 mirrors are the same as UK spec mirrors too.
I have RC mirrors on my - well RC funnily enough, and my UK spec bike (to keep the OE black ones safe) and the project bike i am building.
bust my left uk spec black mirror when i binned bike in august tried searching around none available , wemoto do ns125 r patern mirrors £28 heads the same but arm mount different took your advice and ordered white rc30 mirrors from david silvers £80 delivered was wondering if they will fit nc mounts off the original uk mirrors as an alternate to removing a stud and tapping another fixing ?

I wasnt sure if you could remove the head from the mount. if you can then i would have though they were interchangeable. but will need the bases painting white.
to do a nicer job, remove the foam, and grind the old stud off, and chemical metal the stud in the new place ?
