Saturday... A new Wild Goose Chase, Mirrors and a Seat

On Saturday I'm setting up times to go look at another set of mirrors and a rear passenger seat. Looking at them again I think neither one is going to work. The mirrors are an aftermarket set for sport bikes. I'm not really into the style. I think I'm just going to end up going to ebay and buying a new mirror.

These are the mirrors I'm looking at buying.







They're a little too "Cats Eye" crazy. The carbon fiber look is big these days for almost everything, but I just don't think they'll look great on the old mini wing. I do like the idea of the integrated turn signal.

The seat I'm looking at is the rear passenger seat from a VTX 1800 with seat back cushion. I don't think the seat will work but I think I can use the cushion because mine has rotted away.

Here's the seat and cushion.








The cushion for my bike lives on the back of the box and is part of the hinge/spring unit that holds the box lid up when open.
