Looking good. :thumbup:

Can you see anything with those or do your arms block them?

How is the field of vision with these? They look like they might aim right at your shoulders.

BTW, they do match the lines of the bike very nicely..

i can see everything, alot better than stock. i thought i wouldnt be able to see any thing but i was wrong, you can adjust them better than stock. so no more arms and sholders

I have seen people point these out further and use the convex mirror inserts. Not sure how well it works.

Dude no joke that is awesome as hell. I really like that if I decide to keep the front fairing.

I have never really looked at how the stock mirrors are attached to the bike. Do you have to drill any holes in the bike to attach these or do they mount similar to how the stock mirrors are attached? Thanks for posting about these they look really good on the bike.

those look good, but i am skeptical that you can see everything? it is strange because i can barely see around my arms with the bug antennae

I would tend to agree and wonder if I could see past my elbows.

On the stockers I aim the mirrors to be less than 'optimal' to compensate for elbows. I shift the right hand one to give me mostly rear view and the left one to view the left lane. It leaves a bigger blind spot on my right side than 'optimal' but at 'optimal' position I have to move my arms constantly to see anything. Its a trade off but I feel that being able to glance and see most of my surroundings is better than having to move my arms to check anything. I just make sure I headcheck longer when going right.
