I fitted a set of CRG bar ends, and I can see the tail of my bike past myself. I get a little bit of elbow, but can see sooooo much more. As an added benefit they look way better too.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

I use those fish eye convex mirrors attached to the bottom right (for left mirror) and bottom left (for the right mirror). They are fantastic... and work great. In some of my video's you can see it in action and see the cars and how it looks on the stock, and fisheye mirror.

Well, I typed "crg bar end mirrors" into google and got this website as the first hit, but there are hundreds that carry them, or similar products.big_ry_ry wrote:Sev wrote:I fitted a set of CRG bar ends, and I can see the tail of my bike past myself.

They're the second "section" down. I have the three inch ones I believe... look like this, much better then those huge square things posted above.




Hope this helps.
