While getting clipons put on my bike I ordered a set of koso mirrors from ebay but in the end didn't like the way they looked so reverted back to stock. I was undecided whether to go bar end or standard mounting mirrors. I was reserved with going for bar end mirrors as they add extra width to the bike which would mean extra care would be needed when riding between traffic.

 

After seeing rizoma reverse retro mirrors the looks grew on me and wanted to buy them until I saw the price which was close to AUD 300 locally or AUD 240 if bought from overseas.

 

Then I stumbled upon rideitmoto who sell knockoffs of the same mirrors delivered for USD 79. This was a bargain and worth the punt.

 

While the ends are facing in these mirrors are same as stock.

I will still make minor adjustments to the mirror so they don't touch my gloves when turned in as my gloves have a large hump on them (a* gp pro) across the knuckles. May also look at getting shorty levers to eliminate this.

While the ends are facing out they probably add 4cm extra width on each side.

The other good thing when ends are facing out is that I don't need to move my head or arms or any body part for that matter to check my rear view and the viewing area is great. It gives less of a blind spot as well.

Get the mirrors with the blue tint as they reduce the glare from rear vehicle' headlight. For levers, those you show have only hydraulic clutch levers. You can still source for CB400 levers on ebay.

Lever Seller 1

Lever Seller 2

Lever Seller 3

Our clutch is cable actuated and so the whole lever assembly is different that of a hydraulic clutch. Normal CNC levers usually have a distinct break off tabs abt an inch from the ends so that in case of a fall, that inch portion breaks off but the whole lever can still be used.

 

Normal length levers

Another one I just came across...

Complete set of levers and perch

Here you go... Search "CB400SF" in the store search bar on the left column.

E-bay store

I bought a pair of these levers from ebay seller which is also the same seller as last link above.

 

Tried fitting them on my bike, the clutch lever fit but the brake lever didn't. Due to my model being abs the brake lever has a circle part which latches on to a knob on the bike. Pics below will give a clearer indication.

 

I've since been refunded from the seller and am looking for another set of cnc machined normal or shorty levers. Any revo abs riders out there change their levers, if so can you post some ebay links of sellers please.

If I were you I would have grinded off the CNC lever and then make a spherical notch to accomodate my master pump.

 

Hehe~! That's my take. Try ASV or CRG. What you can do is look at more recent model Honda bikes that comes with ABS and you can get their specific lever.

Wow that it great ingenuity and clever idea :)

 

After I tried fitting it and was unsuccessful I took it to the motorbike mechanic whom advised it is the wrong end part of the lever. The rest is all correct but it is for the brake lever and doing a modification won’t be safe. I’ve read horror stories on the internet of incorrect fitting brake levers such as this one:

http://www.gixxer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=298233&page=3

 

I bought it didn't fit and got my money back so am back at square 1

 

I was trying to avoid paying top $ for ASV or CRG levers but might have to look at that path after all. Before doing that though as you too have also suggested I've been looking at VFR800 & ST1300ABS levers to see if I can find something similar to the ones I bought that would actually fit.
