Hi Everyone:

For the summer I found a new windscreen released for the 04 Gixxer 750. Here's a head on pic of it.

Well that picture didn't load..lets try it again.

Do the PigSpotters serve any real function? On my 600 the vibes are such that most things in the stock mirrors look like Spaghetti-O's.

I like the Pig mirrors for the side vision. If I can see something in them..then I can't pull over to that lane...if I don't see anything..I'm clear to go into the next lane. In reality, I still look. For my Gixxer, even with the stock mirrors I would always be shifting my body left and right to be able to see.

So to me they're functional.

That's exactly what you should do: Still look.

If your MSF instructor was worth his/her salt, they would have told you that mirros can only say "No," never "Yes." If they don't say "NO," a look over the shoulder is the next step towards getting a "Yes."

I do that in my truck now. Good habits are hard to break.

Are they convex mirrors?

Yes the mirrors are convex. I like them. Plus they give a nice sleek look to the bike.

The MSF course I took in York was excellent. I took the advanced course with my bike. Not easy doing some of the slow turns though on a Gixxer but it was fun. He did mention to always look.
