Well dummy me has not done modification one on an early body vespa style scooter before and my early assumption of the standard oberon billet bar end mirror mods will not work,,both handlebar ends are tubular and rotate ,,, one with the throttle the other with the shifter twist grip,,,,,so it occurred to me to run a mini billet side view mirrors that hotrodders use and i'll run them on the side of the leg shield by the top,,,,,gonna order them now online ,,i'll see if i can put up a link to what i buy

My 04 2 T's mirrors were too close in for me to see behind me . I added spacers to lengthen and extend by about an inch or two the mirrorr mounts. Speaking of shifting cyborg , I hope the learning curve on the shifting and tranny for you wasn't as bad as mine was when I first got my Stella. Going from a Chinese twist and go to a Vespa's 4 speed tranny and shifting cold turkey with no other instruction like I did was a rude awakening for me for the first couple of months. Letting off the clutch was a nightmare for me till I finally figured how not to pop a wheelie and not over rev the engine while starting out in 1st gear .

I'm pretty sure they undercut the trans gears ,,, it's clutchless shifts on mine ,, it wasn't that hard to adapt at all,,, pretty quick with it now
