Well that shouldn't have been much of an obstruction! :laughing:

Just kidding, although there are probably some guys who enjoy staring at themselves in their sleeveless shirts while riding. :muscles:

I know of a few folks who live in CA, have bar mirros and lane split regularly. Maybe the problem is how you lane split. ;)

These mirrors sound like a good idea... anyone has a pic of a bike fitted with them?

i like to squeeze in tight spaces, spaces that only sportbikes and small bikes can fit into... having bar end mirrors will be a hindrance to that.

Seriously, just stop talking.

If you want to end up a statistic that's fine, but don't brag about it.

I use my mirrors all the time, just quick checks as Im riding, keeps you from getting snuck up on. if you only see your arms, your mirrors are adjusted poorly. the head check in conjunction with mirrors is the way to do er.

im not bragging. who cares if i can lane split in tight spaces. that's not something i'll brag about.

i just do it bec i don't like baking under the heat and i wanna constantly be moving.

plus of course, it's one of the many advantages of riding... here in CA at least. :wink:
