I have small 3" round mirrors from a 1930's style roadster. They work well enough but I was always more of a 'turn my head and check the road guy' then using mirrors.

I never liked the "Mickey Mouse" look of stock mirrors...got a small one I got from Jaybrake, mounted on the left side of the bars...it does the job, and I'm another of those turn my head and look guys, too...

Had those tiny Ness ones for a bit, but they were impossible to see out of. Replaced with a set of Ness Rad IIIs.
