is it legal to ride on the streets without mirrors?

Not in Cali.

Cali law requires at least one mirror on the left side. A bar-end mirror would suffice.

It varies by state, some require 1 some require both.
You can check your state in the following link:

It is in the UK

+ if you MOT your bike (yearly UK inspection) and a mirror is broke it will fail, but without mirrors it passes.


2008 RR - thanks allot for posting those pics up.
Gregg's Mirror Blocks - they do look a bit better than the ones i made plus they have the correct connectors and can be used as sidelights too. Looks a quality product.

I had greggs on my 6R lovely craftmanship, however they dont always follow the true definition of flush mount and the block off ones look like they are too small you can see the lip of the fairing they are meant to cover.

^those are the carbon fibre block off plates, I made my own but it probably cost the same as buying from carbonpartz.

wasn't a big fan of the gregs.

I quite like the blade mirrors and indicators they are different to the normal tat you get on a bike, the pig spotters are just bling for the sake of it there is no use to them other than bragging rights (who wants to brag about them anyway). The block off plates are ok if you dont use mirrors but want to finish the look off and the greggs are ok if you like them.

different countries have different laws and rules but in the UK for an MOT you have to have functioning indicators or it is not road worthy but you do not have to have mirrors, so block offs like ants are perfectly fine.

very clean

Hooligan214 - Well made man and very original.

Im not sure if i like the LED's being off centre. It might look better if you filled the hole with LED's.

Thanks and yea i thought about that but by having them off center to the inside it kept most off the wireing out of sight.

i like this idea. the greggs are probably my favorite but the carbon ones are cool too
