Bar end mirrors are gay, no good for lane splittin and they just never seem to look right.

Bar-end mirrors are great as long as you get a good set. Don't need to be expensive. The ones I have at the moment are really good. No vibration due to being mounted on a teflon bush, which also means u can adjust them on the go. And they cost less then $100 delivered to my door. Bought from ebay USA

I have those exact ones.

I used to have the round ones that stick out the ends.. and they WERE shit for lane splitting, but these ones are the business.

My bars clipons tilt down a fair way (TLs ones), with some more level ones they would stick out even less.

I have the same mounted under bars as I like the look of nothing above the bars, work fine. Even dropped her at speed with em on and had em ground back some and they stayed on till I got home, mounts are billet not cast. I'd get em again.

Only negative I can find about them is the tension on the ball the mirror mounts on is a little on the slack side on mine, and at 150 plus mirrors move a little. Fixed with a little super glue in the right spot , there still able to be adjusted just alot stiffer now.

I've got 1 bar end one on my Kat.
I reckon cause mine hasn't got the 'ballast' in it, that side of the bars buzz like a cunt.
Numb fingers in 30 k's.
These clamp over original bar ends?
