Lonewolf

The mirrors do tuck in, but dont forget its still a damn site wider than the CB1300.

Kwikasfuki

Aye, it is a wide bike, much so than the CBR. I can probably get some measurements if you want

would appreciate the measurments if you could just on the width would help me alot.

Lonewolf

I've just measured the bike's width, from mirror tip to mirror tip you are looking at 1.8 metres.

If you fold them in the width reduces to a staggering 1.5 metres.

Hope that helps. I did say it was a wide bike.

Kawdolph

Hate to ask but is that straight across or with the curve of the bike

Kawdolph

Got this online, Overall width: 780 mm (30.7 inches)  thats the spec on the gtr

Lonewolf

I'm wondering now if I've measured that right. I'll have another look at it in the morning.

Kawdolph

no panic just found another review where he states it 43 inches which is 110cm wing tip to wing tip

Yeah, just been out and measured mine again....I got it slightly wrong. It wasn't 1.8 metres wide it was approximately 1 metre 8 cms wide which is as near as damnit what you have put above. Oops!!

With the mirrors folded mine are just under 1 metre wide.
