It doesn't look to me like mirror extenders are that difficult to make. Here is a picture of mine. I purchased these online. They are Givi so they are stout, but it seems to me that you could make them out of thick aluminum. You just have to match the threads for the mirror, where it normally screws in, so that you can purchase bolts to hold the extenders in. Then get a lockout for the mirror as well.

Aren't the mirror shafts left-hand thread? Making extenders would not be that tricky, but finding LH metric taps could be humorous, at least in the US.

You know what else works??... Ride-by-proxy. :-) Maybe you can find a small Asian to ride for you. Honda DID make it for them, you know. :-) (I just had to say that. Couldn't help myself.)

Here's the CB500X mirrors (on right for comparison) I got from a salvage off Eb*y. A real improvement, I can't say if its better than extensions or vice- versa, but definitely better than the stock ones.

They look about the same height but wider? The extensions make the mirrors taller but not wider.

Perhaps the ideal would be both?

How much did they cost?

The CB500X stems bend sharper to horizontal so the mirrors are lower & farther out - not a lot, maybe .75" - 1.0" out more. But they are more square so give better vision to the rear. The tapered outer 1" of the PCX mirrors are only for style & fashion rather than efficient use. The set cost me $35 & free shipping used from a salvage place on eb*y. They are nice, obviously not new, but nice.

My left mirror is broke, so I purchase on eBay a 2011 OEM Honda replacement thats is 10mm but the thread didn't match since my PCX is 2018.

So, now I was thinking on change both since the OEM fails and there is a lot of universal mirror I am looking now but how can I be sure it will fit ?

I bought a pair of extenders off of ebay. aprox $35 w/ hardware. On my 2021, both mirrors had left hand threads.

I dont know if threads change after years, but I guess is different on each side so the wind dont move the mirros.

Can you tell me what model did you buy ?

I saw one with multi adapters on amazon, https://www.amazon.com/-/es/gp/product/ ... 11Q4&psc=1 but I'm still not sure they work.

The adapters I bought were listed for a Yamaha motorcycle. The bolt that holds adapter to bike is reverse thread & the threads in adapter for mirror are also left hand. Are available in chrome or black. $15.00 each.

Did these mirrors, Mamiko brand, work?

Seems the ones i have now (not original owner of my Honda 2016 PCX) are counter clockwise. Looking to replace right side mirror.
