My old vespa has no facility to fit a mirror to the handle bars, current;y have a clip on one on the leg shield but its less than ideal. Wondered if anyone made some king of adaptor that would use the little screw hold on the break leaver or any other solutions really!
Advice most greatfully received

Aah , vbb ,150s , headset , yes no holes on them . there are adapters sold for mirrors to go on brake lever pivot bolts . i wouldnt bother ,there too thin an the vibration kills em. if ya buy leggy mirrors you need to buy decent , stadium kick out ones ,£50 , cheaper ones are crap. end of day its a vespa , mirrors unless a "mod" thing dont really work .

Cheers Henri, mad bad for not mentioning it was a 65 VBB - I do have one good quality leg guard mirror, but its just not natural to look down to see it, 30+ years of motorcycling sort of fighting against it !
So could you point me in the direction of the adaptor that would fit, may not be ideal but would like to try - a link would be wonderful :-)
Really appreciate your replies too by the way
