Default Chewys mirror extenders?

In case anyone else has one for sale, I'm interested.

Has anyone tried these Convex blindspot little stick-on mirrors?

My FJ had those little stick on blind spot mirrors when I got it & I hated them. They were more of a distraction & made it harder to see behind in my opinion.

I had them on a rental car while on holiday and thought they worked quite well.
I guess it's different on the bike........anyone else?

I tried the little round mirrors for a week or so and couldn't get used to them - you could see 'movement and stuff' in them but in the dark, in the rain they just got in the way and took up too much prime mirror real estate imho. The curvy mirrors are actually ace, so little vibration that you can do proper, proper rear obs with them...

+1 for Chewy's extenders, in fact all of Chewy's bits (mirror extenders, tank raisers & bolt kit so far!)

I used a set for years on my K4 pointy. They worked great. A slight loss of filtering width (if you're a real "1cm clearance on either side" type), but more than outweighed by the benefits.
