My mirrors are pretty useless. I have wide shoulders and i cant see much in them. I just wondererd if anyone had tried sticking on those blind spot mirrors and if it would help?

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.

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.

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.
