The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

These worked well for me on my new Forza.
The allen screw/bolt is slightly too long...bottoms out in the brake lever housing hole. I just added one thick split washer and it snugged right up with no further issues.
Wasn't certain if these would work....the lefty threads on both sides of the Forza confused me.
Now I can see better behind me.

A neater alternative is to look round bikes in a a Honda dealer to see which mirrors have longer stems and buy a pair of those.

HELP!!
Anyone in UK managed to source mirror extenders which fit?
I am on my second attempt...and beginning to feel foolish.
Looking at the parts catalogue on a separate post here it seems to me that both mirrors may be reverse screw fit?
Latest supplier said on their page that their extenders fitted all Hondas...but no they don't!..awaiting response from them...
any solution/spec welcomed...

Have never seen a sport bike, or any bike for that matter, that had nice long mirror arms. The two just do not go together....zoomy motorcycle and long mirrors.
And, yes I looked.

Yep, mine were both reverse threads.
See my first post for ebay sales of the correct extenders, of proper hole size and proper thread type. I bought them and installed them a few weeks ago. Work great on my 2014 Forza!! That's why I posted this...in case anyone else had this issue when the stock mirrors

10mm, reverse thread...is what you need for a Forza.

Thanks fish.
I need however a source in the UK ( anyone know?)as importing them from USA is too costly.
Seems odd that Honda have both mirrors on reverse thread...but so be it...just need to keep looking.

eBay solution works a treat - £9 ea.

Must be me being stupid again but when I try ebay for the correct extension all I get is USA ebay.
Can you advise what you put into ebay to get a UK supplier....or even the name of the supplier?
thanks

thanks..however thats the page and supplier I ordered and just got delivered from and both extenders supplied dont fit as they are not reverse thread. waiting a response from them
but again thanks for the interest and help.

On every bike I have had there is only 1 reverse thread. LHS I think

DAB..Hi
See Fish previous post ( 7 or 8 up) ..Forza both mirrors are reverse thread...Not sure why.

One must be careful theading on the mirrors.....would be easy to drop one while fitting them the "wrong way round".
I nearly dropped them a time or two....and they probably don't bounce too well.
Fish

absolutely right...nearly dropped one when refitting after working out the extenders I bought were wrong
great care needed as screwing in the "wrong round" is like a right handed person trying to write left handed....the brain is confused!! .

Did you manage to sort out some with reverse thread?

Neil
yes...spoke with supplier ...sent them back and they sent out with 10mm reverse thread...they questioned my statement that both mirrors were reverse thread as apparently thats unusual...and I should really have made the reverse thread matter clear when ordering...but they are both now fitted and reverse thread and what an improvement. Have read that some think they are ugly but I don't.

Neil...And remember...as Fish advised above...you will need a split washer as the screw in bottoms out before fully screwed in...if you see what I mean!

Mine came in the post yesterday so a job for the weekend

I noticed a split washer in the pack already, are you saying use one with each section? ie. where you bolt onto the bike and again where the mirror stem connects to the extender?

Also after a very quick look at the packs last night I noticed the hex/allen bolt head is quite large, any idea of the size you used as I'm positive I don't have one that large
