Hi fazersharp they can be a bit of a pain as you see the crap on them easier, going to buy some of that Vulcanet cleaner as it shifts crap really well. If they were not already done I would not have gone out of my way to do them to be honest. Look good though.

Hi mate take it the fitment holes line up without buggering about.
I bought a set of cheap mirrors for my FZS 600 2003 from eGay, I paid about 24 quid for them, I certainly got what I paid for, they buzzed with vibration at most speeds and above 80 the right hand side mirror used to fold back in so I could see my own chest and right arm, very useful. I sent them back and got a refund. Bought a pair of second hand genuine ones from a seller on eGay £30, worth every penny, they were practically unmarked, polished the plastics backs up with solvo and they came up like new.

However, I've had no problems with mine. You can adjust their tension it's a simple spring and bolt arrangement.

Just be careful of filtering etc until you get used to them.
When are you going to tidy up your garage
Change the spark plugs for some iridium ones. I did recently and the difference was very noticeable.
