RE: Bar end mirrors for CB1100?

Thanks, guys. I've been looking at the CRGs and they look like great mirrors. They do have a "lanesplitter" model that fold in. I'm thinking the machined bar end option is a good one.

However, I did want to make the observation that I lost a bar-end weight on a recent ride. I didn't notice. Nor did I notice when I went on another 100 km plus ride. Indeed, I didn't notice until I was looking at some photos to post on a ride report.

While it says a good deal about my lack of attention to detail, it also says that the loss of the weight did not, for me anyway, make an appreciable difference.

Funny you say that, Cormanus. I lost my right bar end weight as well on my last ride! Fortunately my buddy with Renthal bars on his Cb1100 is giving me his spare black ones. I think I may use some Loc-tite this time around!

There are some bar end mirrors that can turn inward so they do not reduce clearance. Looking at those, too.
Something like this:
