I *think* that they are 8mm, but I'm not 100% positive and am not in a
place where I can check right now - sorry.

mate,

thank you very much,

i thought it is also 8mm, because i tried to fit in a mirror from honda
that is around 10mm and it was big, i don't have a tool to get the
inside diameter of the hole in the handle bar so i'm still not sure
of the measurement.....

any way muchos gracias..... for your reply.....

cheers
