I don't need to see everything behind me, but i'd like to see something. I have nothing right now and anythings better than nothing. |

I made these myself. I have found it a pain in the A _ _ that I have to lift my arm to look behind me. These allow me to look under my arm with out moving. They are small, but convex. This gives me a good view without the antenna looking feelers!!

I decided against the chrome and got these. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BLACK-BILLET-ANODIZ ED-CHOPPER-MIRRORS-MIRROR-FIT-HARLEY_W0QQcmdZViewI temQQ_trksidZp1742Q2em153Q2el1262QQcategoryZ35564Q QihZ013QQitemZ230274246073#ebayphotohosting With any luck they keep these in stock and i'll get them by Friday. I'll let ya'll know if these are at all useful. I just want something to glance at to see if a car is behind me. I never rely on my mirrors when changing lanes. If these blow, then I'll try froggy's suggestion. |

I don't think those go with a Buell well. If you like 'em, run 'em. Bar end mirrors are one of the most useful things I've done to my bike. |

P3newbie, as soon as I get my bike back from MPH I will take some pics of them. They are real easy to make and cost $4 for a set. |

Anything less than bar ends give me a perfect view of my arms. My Napoleons are worth every penny I paid for them. |

They did give me a perfect view of my arms. I ordered the moto deluxe bar ends off ebay. They did kinda make my buell look like a bull though. |

Retrittion I can make you a set but it will be a month or so. I am swamped at work and my boys are racing motocross constantly! or I can take some pics of the set I made disassembled. You choose. |
