2009 C14 LH mirror
« on: December 17, 2013, 08:37:55 PM »
I was minding my own business riding to work on the interstate when a kamikaze bird decided it didn't like my mirror.  I was hoping someone here would have a black LH mirror for a 09 C14.

If I'm not mistaken the 08s & 09s are the same.  Kaw changed the mirrors on the 10s.

Thank you

this one may be a gold mine for you, but find out what year it really is as seller seems confused.

Thank you for the replies.  I saw that one on Ebay too.  Its the wrong color but that can be changed. I agree with you about the seller being confused.  He did list the part number but that's not the part number for the mirror on bikebandit.com.

It has 5 days left.  I'm going to ask if he can clarify what year it is.  That mirror is the light blue color which was available in 08...I think???   :)

I wish I had been able to stop & find the bird.  It was just before sunrise.  The bird was crossing the 3 lanes on the other side of the interstate & when it got to the dividing wall in the median it went into a nose dive like it was attacking something.  It immediately hit my mirror & then my left side ribs.  It give me a pretty good hit to the ribs.  The plastic mirror housing virtually exploded when the bird hit it.

The way the bird dived down, I think it was either a hawk or an owl.  What hit me looked to be the size of a basketball, that's wings.

I was running 80mph when I hit it.  By the time I realized what had happened, I was about a mile down the road.  It was dark & I didn't want to risk searching in the dark on the interstate for a bird.   ;D

Thank you again for the replies.

I have a 2009 LH mirror with scrapes underneath from a parking lot drop.  Only visible from an angle below the mirror.  You can have it for cost of shipping if you want.  PM me if you want pics or have questions.
