DP Monster mirrors on a hyper.
Anyone care to give me their opinion on these mirrors on my hyper.
These are from the DP catalog under monster accessories. I picked
them up cheap and thought I'd try them. Pretty good visability on the
road. Thanks

i have had the stock monster 696/1100 mirrors on my hypertard for a few weeks now ... they work great, and look pretty cool (kind of follow the design lines of the hypertard).

I think the mirrors have a cool design in their own right... but i don't think they follow the angular design of the hyper. If you are going to keep them, consider painting them black?

i think that fitted mirrors are a real good job for filtering through the traffice. Its a matter of chioce and if you are happy with them what odds about the rest of us. i put Aprillia Tuno Mirrors on mine and i think they are great. i agree with the other post and that is if your are going to keep them i suggest that you paint them black

Have to agree. The chrome/silver doesn't look good.

DP Monster mirrors on a hyper
Thanks guys for the suggestions and comments on these mirrors.
I agree with all the comments and am going to go with Tuono mirrors
or Streetfighter/Monster Mirrors.

Don't paint them RED or you will get shit for life! 
The actually mirror shape looks sweet, powdercoat, paint, anodise black?

John,
Do you have any pictures posted somewhere of the 696 mirrors on your Hyper? I was thinking of doing the same thing.
Thanks,
Chris
