Last Saturday I left home for a trip on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Just north of Knoxville on the Interstate my right side mirror broke loose, and after a little flapping the wire broke and it was gone.
I was riding with a group so I could deal with the loss of the mirror, but the bulb warning on the computer meant I couldn't use my trip odometer, and the warning was annoying. So I stopped at tractor supply and bought a $3 marker light, and attached it to the broken wires. It seemed satisfy the computer and I enjoyed the rest of the trip.

I am going to try to get my local Aprilia/Vespa dealer to order the Euro lenses, otherwise I'll call MPH. I thought you might enjoy a photo of the "fix".

Nice fix, always gotta have zip ties!

I did the Euro conversion before I picked my bike up from MPH. The mirrors still vibrate but won't snap like the hollow stock ones. MPH will have the lenses and mirrors in stock.

Good fix.;-)
 
My father in law has a set of mirrors for me and MPH will send me the new turn signals next week.

I was not even mad since I wanted to change them anyway. And we got to see bears on the trip.
