Bar end mirrors, advantageous?

[greekcb_imp]

I installed CRG bar end mirrors on my stock bars and actually had a machine shop mill the weights down so i could clamp the mirrors right to the weights. I did the mirrors mostly for looks because i just dont like the lollipops but i can tell you that the CRG mirrors give great vision still and are absolutely clear as can be, no blur. My royal enfield has them as well and if that bike cant get them to shake then nothing will. I also do have Rox riser extensions so the mirrors are up a couple inches which made it a bit of a better field of vision. In all honesty though, i like the lollipops the best for high up view and they dont get blocked out my my shoulders. I also dont look down at them like bar end mirrorss. But the CRG setup works fine for me and looks a billion times better.

I have the mirrors for safety and not for looks.

If you had to pick based solely on overall visibility, would you chose the lollipops or the bar ends?

Actual visibility id say easily bar ends because they stick out further. Only downside id say is the bar end is gonna be smaller and down lower. So, its one of those things where it has a good/bad situation either way(to me). Looking down might not be a big deal though to some people etc. I do have to say that i like the lollipops for more of an "ease" to look at but by no means do they show me more etc. The "downsides" part to me though are very minor in comparison to the bar end mod itself etc. Im happy with it and wouldn't change that if i had to do over.

Thanks greek.

Final follow up if you please: what kind of risers/bars do you have?

Sure no prob , I am running stock bars with Rox riser extensions (2inch) . This def put the bar ends in better view since they moved up. I also have the bar ends orientated with the clamps swiveled down , if you swivel up it’ll raise their position .
