Default Nightrain Mirrors

I'm not sure if this has been done before, but I could never see behind me with the stock mirrors. So I flipped them right to left and took some map gas to them and bent them so that now I see everything behind me. Just thought it might help someone>>>

Nope, I bent the stems so that they clear the tank. Not the perfect solution, but it's working ...

Now that there is an idea of the century!
Damn man great imagination and ingenuity!
I think I will copy that idea if you don't mind, I'll name it the davz mod!
That truely gives the bike a custom look...and ya can't beat the price!
I can't wait to see your next idea!

looks cool, not to be nit picky or anything, but did you notice your right turn signal is higher than the left?

I can almost guarantee that I'm not the first one to do this. I don't think anyone can come up with anything new these days...
I thought the way I have my bike was original but I have seen two more like it (sort of ) when I was looking online the other day........

But Thanks.............

And Yep the signals were that way when I got the bike, I tried to move it down but the bolts are so tight that I just live with it. I'll probably change the front end anyway...
