I'm not sure I like the look of the bar end mirrors turned down...I'm looking around for pictures now to see what others have done. I'm on the fence about ordering four of these ($120 total)...one for the GS and one for the CB.
I'll probably throw down...since the superbike or clubmans limit the view with standard mirrors.

Hope the guy is a quick shipper.8-[
One tip: You may have to move your clutch (and or) brake levers in a bit to clear the mirrors.
The ends of the levers on mine don't touch the mirror brackets... but the grips are shorter and the levers are not stock.

bar end are a very nice touch to a custom bike, but my wife has a cow everytime something shows up in the mail or she finds out that i've been to the bike shop. so, i just made my own. 8-[it kinda cheesy but i made it from dimond plate and painted it gloss black. stuck a 3inch mirror on it and wolla bar mirror for cheap. the dimond plate was a mud flap from my dads old ugly truck and the mirror itself came from the autoparts store2-3 dollars i think?\\/ i'll have to throw a pic up as soon as i take some.

Be interested to see your diamond plate creation.
I get away with ebay most times .. \\/
Went on a group ride today (me and 20 harleys/shadows) would like to have had those bar ends already.
