A note about this forum, it's history, an apology and an announcement

VLJ, I think it's more the aesthetic, but some people probably worry about appearing too superficial, so they create a functionality argument. In fairness, though, if you are doing a cafe mod that lowers the bars and puts your body in more of a forward lean, the stock mirrors may be hard to view.

Here, they're more often referred to as "lollipops" than "mouse ears", I think. (going to do a search on each word now, for authoritative proof)
The votes are in!
39 posts mentioning "lollipop" mirrors (although at least a few of those posts are quotes re-using the word.. so let's say 20)
6 posts mentioning "mouse ear" (almost all instances of which are preceded by "Mickey")
