I have recently bought a lovely 1998 750 Supersport in nigh on showroom condition, it still hasn’t done 5000 miles and I have actually put a thousand on it since July. It runs very well indeed but I’m forever having to adjust the mirrors as they won’t hold a setting. It looks like a lopp eared rabbit! Does anybody know if they can be tightened up or have a workable fix? Thanks, Martin.

I think from memory, remove them off the ball, scuff up a bIt and it stops the droop

…(continued) I made an adaptor from 6.5mm aluminium plate, with one of the original mirror holes countersunk, and one of the new mirror holes drilled & tapped to take an M6 Allen bolt from the new mirror.

Hello, It depends on whether you want the bike to be as it came from the factory, or want functional mirrors. I have a 1991 750ss and this suffered from floppy mirrors from the start. Yes, roughing up the ball and sockets helped but it was temporary. In the end I swapped them for mirrors from a 1992 Honda CBR600. This was might sound sacrilegious, but they had a much better field of view and didn’t flop.(see pic 1)
