A while ago I built some prototype [[Toolmaker's mirror extensions|"upside down" mirror mounts]]. They were meant as a proof of concept, and after about 1000 miles I'm satisfied with the idea. They are more useful to me than the stock mounts; there's no blind spot after about 5 feet behind me, nothing obstructs them (not even my saddlebags), and they're about the same height and in pretty much the same focal plane as the gauges. And in crowded motorcycle parking, they don't get "adjusted" by other bikes parking too close as often as the stock mounts. | A while ago I built some prototype [[Toolmaker's mirror extensions|"upside down" mirror mounts]].
