All depends on your height setup and the type of mirrors your using. I'm rocking 14 apes, mirrors flipped, I can see everything behind me. I'm also 5'10

 

Got the hardware and flipped the mirrors yesterday. Big improvement on visibility for me. I now can see behind me without first having to move my arms/shoulders out of the way. It also now leaves a better field of view when looking forward as well as looking cleaner on the bike. Installed on a street bob w mini apes; Im 6' tall.

 

I flipped my mirrors, but with 16 inch apes all I got was a fantastic view of my arm pits....

 

Bike looks good Krazy..
