Mirror options for CB1100

[chync_imp]

I am looking to replace my mirrors and I like the look of several of the bar end mirrors I have seen here. I switched to the smaller Honda handlebars which brought the stock mirrors in about an inch on both sides.

It looks like in order to properly mount most of the bar end mirrors I have seen here, I would have to remove the weights that are inside the handlebars. Is that correct? Or am I missing something?

I like to think that they are actually doing some good and that I would notice if I had to remove them.

Thoughts?
I was looking at what c-breezy did and I'm wondering if I just had the bar end weights milled down to make room for the mirror clamp if I could achieve the same thing without needing the washers which would also prevent the overall bar width from increasing some.
