Mirror extensions

[Plywood]

On some youtube ct125 review i saw mirror extensions were installed to widen the distance between mirrors and improve the rear sightline. Does anyone have a recommendation for this?

Check out revzilla.com Bikemaster 10mm mirror extensions. They work great.

I just got my extensions installed yesterday. It's a big improvement. I followed the Migolito video and it worked perfect for me. Thanks for all the help.

So we need 10mm? Is there a left and right or both the same?

Is that a larger storage box mounted below your rack? I’ve been looking for something like that. Looks great! Do you mind me asking where you got it? Also how is it attached? Thanks

What's that box you have mounted near the tool box?

Funny you ask that. I just saw this post 20 mins ago and was scouring the forum for the answer to your question with no luck. Haha

Anyone ever find the answer to what the box mounted near the tool box is? All those Amazon links just take me to mirror extensions

That's a Givi S250 Tool Box. On larger bikes with side racks they are often mounted between the side cases and the rear wheel for permanent locking storage while the side cases can be easily removed.

Right on, thanks for the info. Do you happen to know if there is a way to mount one of these the way the bike is set up from factory? Or would I need to buy a side mount to attach it to? Any info is much appreciated

Edit.. side rack to mount it to

Not sure how @usaff4 has it mounted (looks like a black rack under there?), but it can be made to fit most of the Honda Trail side racks. The Givi box is plastic and you drill holes in it for bolts to pass through for mounting it. Elsewhere on the forum @PegLegRacer mentioned modifying a Takegawa side rack to accommodate it, the G-Craft Multi Side Rack would be another good way to mount it.

Thanks @dmonkey I really appreciate all the help and info.

Damn you guys for calling my attention to a thing I didn't know I had to have! I've had the Takegawa side rack in my shopping cart debating if I should use it to mount a Yeti bag in this space. I'm going to see if I can make it work with this toolbox. The shape of this box makes it look like it was designed for the bike. It's what the stock toolbox should have been. Only thing I don't like about it is that it is somewhat unattractive on the visible left side (which makes sense since it was never mean to be visible).

 

[Codyg5]

Haha! @JTB Just recently saw this too. I think I’m gonna have to get me one. The mods on these things are endless. Hell I’ll probably get the rack too. I really like the look of them both together. Definitely what the stock toolbox should have been. Wish the bike came factory with a lockable space. This will be perfect for small personal items, gloves, tools, etc. Cheers! Hope it works well for you

Check this out:
If you mount the box in this orientation you could make a custom plate for the left side and buy
this decal from Revzilla for $3.

Just sayin.....

It's a great box and I highly recommend it. I carried a complete tool roll, later replaced with a Kriega Kube tool pouch, minus breaker bar (Ducati Scrambler rear axle nut torque spec is 145 Nm ) and travel size WD-40 can in one S250 tool box, a Dynaplug Micro Pro Inflator, Dynaplug plug kit for tubeless tires, and tow strap in the other. If you are running a Givi top case on the CT125 you can also order replacement lock cylinders to have all the Givi locks matched to the same key. The S250 center divider is removable, the weather seal is replaceable in case you pinch it or it fails, and though it has that odd tapered shape you can still fit longer wrenches in it at a diagonal. I used the universal mount kit to mount to to the Givi side case racks on the Scrambler, not sure if it would be much use for mounting to the CT125 rather than just mounting it directly to a side rack but it's worth a look.

If you even need more space and want to spend BMW-level money there's also a Touratech tool box that's similar, which you *might* be able to purchase internationally with the mounting hardware they made specific to the CT125, not sure if they ship internationally from the Japan site or if you could special order it through a Touratech USA dealer.

Came across this interesting mount setup for the Givi S250s.
