Alternative to Dual Star?
Anyone found anything similar to Dual Star that holds up any better? I am tired of purchasing new mirrors, mounts, screws, all they do is break and fall apart. Today rode hard off road and got back on the blacktop and saw the mirrow needed adjusting, adjuted it right out of my hand and into the middle of the road traffic everywhere no way to turn around and go pick it up!
Any suggestions, I am listening.

My folding mirrors have been on for almost 5 years, and not only have they held up but they don't vibrate either. Now if I could only remember what brand they are.......
Here they are!
Mine were a different brand, but these are basically it. http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com...WT.MC_ID=10010

deej, do yours stick up as high as the original OEM? How do they fold and where to they fold to?
I am sure you are familiar with the Dual Star mirrors as they are very low profile, work great on the road but just cannot take the vibration when you ride the bike like you are on a moto x bike. You can look at the mirrors and something will break or fall off, they were just not made to take the abuse that I put on them.

The Ken Sean folding mirror is mentioned. It looks very similar to Deeg's link.

Thanks IDRIDER but I believe I will completly knock these off their mounts as I ride like my pants are on fire everywhere I go. That is why the Dual Star being so compact are great but I am hitting them as well and they are small. I need something similar but will withstand all of the beating I give them.

The folding mirrors are lower than stock, and they actually let you see better than the stock ones too. I just sold my 1980 Yamaha QT50 Moped with 400 miles on it for $600.00 and the mirrors on it were the stock ones off my KLX.

IDRIDR is right, and that's the site where I bought mine. The knuckles on these mirrors are heavy duty!
