Arlen Ness teardrop mirrors include classic chrome designs, compact convex-glass options, and forged Tearchop styles in black or chrome. The 13-036 is best for riders who want listed mirror dimensions and a longer steel stem; the Rad II suits buyers seeking a small, simple chrome mirror. Tearchop models are better for shoppers choosing a modern forged look, with separate listings for left- and right-side black or chrome mirrors. Check the listed side and finish before selecting a mirror.

13-036 Classic Chrome Teardrop Mirror
The Arlen Ness Store 13-036 is a classic-style chrome mirror with a die-cast head and convex glass. Its chrome steel stem measures 5 inches and positions the mirror head for greater visibility, according to the product features. The head measures 6 3/8 by 3 inches, while the glass measures 5 3/4 inches wide by 1 1/2 inches high.
Best for: Buyers who want a traditional chrome teardrop appearance and value listed stem and glass measurements when comparing options. It stands out for its stated dimensions and convex glass. Keep in mind: The listing describes one mirror and does not specify motorcycle fitment in the supplied details, so confirm fit and quantity before ordering.
510-004 Left Black Tearchop Mirror
This left-side Arlen Ness Tearchop has a black finish and a modern interpretation of the teardrop shape. Its smooth body lines and angled form are described as a performance-style design intended to flow with a motorcycle’s lines. The mirror is forged and CNC-machined from billet aluminum and uses premium high-quality mirror glass.
Best for: Buyers selecting a left-side mirror who prefer a black, contemporary design and the listed forged billet-aluminum construction. Choose this if the left-side designation and finish match your needs. Keep in mind: This listing specifies the left mirror; do not assume it includes a matching right-side mirror. The provided features do not give dimensions or fitment details.
13-411 Compact Chrome Rad II Mirror
The Ness 13-411 is a right-side chrome Rad II teardrop mirror. The product features describe a small, stylish design for custom applications, die-cast construction, and convex glass. These details make it a compact alternative to the larger 13-036, although the supplied information does not state exact dimensions.
Best for: Buyers looking for a small, right-side chrome mirror with a convex-glass design. It is a useful comparison when compact styling and die-cast construction matter more than having published measurements. Keep in mind: The listed side is right, and the features do not establish whether the mirror is sold as part of a pair or specify compatible motorcycles.
510-006 Right Black Tearchop Mirror
The 510-006 is the right-side black version of the Arlen Ness Tearchop design. It shares the line’s modern angled profile, smooth body lines, forged and CNC-machined billet-aluminum construction, and premium high-quality mirror glass. This makes it a direct option to compare with the left-side black 510-004 when choosing a side-specific mirror.
Best for: Buyers who need a right-side mirror in black and want the Tearchop’s forged construction and contemporary styling. Keep in mind: The product details identify the right side, but do not say that a left mirror is included. Confirm the required side and any fitment requirements before purchase.
510-007 Right Chrome Tearchop Mirror
The 510-007 combines the right-side Tearchop design with a chrome finish. Like the other Tearchop options here, it is forged and CNC-machined from billet aluminum and features premium high-quality mirror glass. Its angled, smooth-lined shape gives buyers a modern alternative to the classic teardrop outline.
Best for: Riders choosing a right-side mirror who want the Tearchop design in chrome rather than black. Compare it with the 510-006 if the design and side are suitable but finish is the deciding factor. Keep in mind: The supplied features do not list dimensions, fitment, or whether a matching left mirror is included.
Buying Guide: How To Choose Arlen Ness Teardrop Mirrors
Which side do you need?
Check the product name for left or right before ordering. The Tearchop products above are side-specific, and the Rad II listing is identified as right-side. Do not assume that a single listing includes a pair. If you need both sides, verify the contents of each listing and select the corresponding sides.
Do you prefer classic or modern styling?
The 13-036 offers a classic chrome teardrop look with a die-cast head and steel stem. The Tearchop line has an angled, modern profile and forged, CNC-machined billet-aluminum construction. The Rad II is described as a small, stylish design for custom applications. Compare the stated construction and appearance rather than assuming the designs have the same dimensions.
How important are mirror dimensions and glass details?
The 13-036 provides the most specific measurements in this selection, including head size, glass size, and stem length. Both the 13-036 and Rad II list convex glass. The Tearchop features specify premium mirror glass but do not give dimensions or identify it as convex. Check product information for measurements if available before choosing based on space or viewing area.
What should you verify before ordering?
Confirm side, finish, quantity, and fitment requirements for your motorcycle. The supplied product descriptions do not provide compatibility information for these listings, so do not infer fit from appearance alone. Also compare the mirror’s listed measurements with your needs; only the 13-036 details include specific dimensions here.
