I hated the way mirrors looked on my apes, so I got one cheap mirror from licks cycles, 20$ + shipping. I mounted it on the clutch side upside down like a lot of others do.

Thanks, guys. I tried flipping my mirrors under...... Still didn't like the look. I'll try a set of mini's, see how that goes.

I had the Ness mini ovals (see sig pic), really liked them until I had to replace due to my accident, now I have the Joker Machine units, haven't installed yet as I am still mending myself and my bike.

Love those under the bar mirrors. How are they to use? Can you actually see much in those?

I can see all I need to see in them, yes. It all depends on angles, the same mirrors on my apes did not work well under, on t-bats and my new bars they work great.

One simple round mirror, under slung on the L/H side.

Avoid anything with flames, skulls etc imo.

Check out the Ness Mini Ovals. For small mirrors they work pretty well due to the concave mirror. Quality of the chrome is pretty poor but is improved with a little chrome polish and elbow grease.
