ok so seeing how during my MSF course my bike never had mirrors I never asked what they should display. I mean when you set your mirrors do you try and have them look behind you or just to the sides... how far back etc.

I'm so used to driving in a car and being able to see behind me. For now I'm just doing the hea check thing and my mirrors are set sorta alright I suppose.

Second question is.. yeah completly forgot that one.

I adjust mine so I see just a slight bit of each arm in the mirror. That should cover you pretty good.

On cars I set the side mirrors wide to show the areas that are hard to see with a head check. On the bike I set them closer in so you can see what's behind you and use head checks to see next to you.

So...mine are set to show a bit of wrist....but they are fairing mounted so it'll probably be different for you.

My are set just so I can see a little bit of my upper arm in each mirror. So I see a little bit of the lane behind me, and all of the lane behind me and to the side.
