Default going for a mirror change, split vision mirrors?

I'm looking at changing my stock mirrors for something different but yet not radical.

The split vision mirrors seem to look nice and have a good function.
Has anyone had/have them? What's your opinion?

had them on some other bikes and liked them. Be aware they do take a little getting used to though.

Nice mirrors. Functional and very nice looking. But they do take some getting used to. I found them to be a little distracting at first. Once you settle into them, they're really nice mirrors.

I have these mirrors and like them a lot. I like the extra coverage.

I've had these on several bikes, one thing I really liked about them is if you ride with others such as your lady behind you, you can see the rider behind you VERY well in both mirrors.

Bluraven,

It's refreshing to see a rational rider asking a practical question. Sure, I like style but for me mirrors are an important safety item. Whenever I see a bike with small, narrow, Bling mirrors I shake my head.
