Very nice indeed. Thanks for the tip. BTW I notice on the photo of your right mirror the wording "objects in miiror, etc." is upside down.
They are not upside down...they are backwards...wrong side...lol....I think...
Yep ... but by doing that ... they are higher and allow me to see past my shoulders. I've covered this before in this thread.
See post #35 ... there is a method to my madness.
I have those "spot" mirrors on mine also. They help a lot. For me, if I see a vehicle in the "spots", I do NOT change lanes. That vehicle is too close for that.
Are yours the glass only ones? I've never seen them before ... hated the look of the ones with the black plastic backing ... JMHO.
Mine have the black plastic backing. Never seen the glass ones you have. I like yours better! :clapping:
Okay ... so I wanted to get some way to "see" what the little man Harley was up to in the Pet Palace. I have tried lots of stuff to get me there.I found these on Flea Bay ... they came yesterday.

I tried them out by just sitting on the bike, and I can see behind me ... not sure they will be okay but, I'm gonna try them out. My only concern with these mounts is maybe vibration going down the road will make it hard to see at like 75 mph.
The good news ... I can see half of the back seat in the spots on both sides. And as a bonus ... the "Objects in the rear mirrors are closer than they appear" is right side up ... never bothered me ... but ... obviously some people couldn't wrap their heads around it. LOL.
Say Alan. Do you have the short or long stem mirrors? I alway have to buy the long stem. Moves them out and up a little. I put some spots on my left mirror yesterday. Not sure if I like them. I'll be waiting for your test result's. Jerry
I have had the long stems since I can remember ... LOL ... keep taking them off and reusing them when I trade ...
Ya. I also change them from bike to bike.
I am not sure I can get used to the mirrors being so low ... with my old method ... right switched with left and upside down, puts the mirrors really high ... I can see behind me with a quick glance ... seems with these I take my eyes off the road longer ... but it may be that I'm looking for them and they are not where I'm used to ... LOL
Now, when you switch them from side to side, and they get higher. Does that include the extender's? Or just the bare mirrors? Thanks Jerry
