Something to remember as well i guess is that due to the angles and shape of the motorbikes it may not be the best ‘one fits all mirror’ eh, I can tell u man i love the mirrors but can only see my hands when they are on the ninja 400. Imagine that for a beginner 🫣 thx for the input btw! I Appreciate it.

    Ima be honest with you. While I get your point, you don’t seem to understand the other side. These mirrors are intended for people who shoulder check instead of mirror check( like you should be doing anyways) but don’t want to remove their mirrors for legal reasons. If it were legal a lot more people would get rid of the mirrors entirely as on most bikes it ruins the look and makes lane splitting a pain.

    These type of mirrors popped up year or so ago and I cringe everytime I see a new rider flock to these. They are a cosmetic item as far as I'm concerned. The stock mirrors are unnecessarily long imo, so I have replaced them with the Ninja 300 stock mirrors which are tad shorter and makes the bike a look a little bit smarter without sacrificing practicality.
