Dusty, are your mirrors functional hanging down like that?
I have no problem using the like that. My left one is really functional, as 90% of the time I only ride with my throttle hand. The right one is blocked a little, but it only takes a small "flick of the elbow" and you can see right by it.
My dad has run his upside down on his heritage with stock bars my whole life, so it only seemed right I continue it!
-EDIT-
Here ya go Warg, I found this pic my wife snapped. Perfect example of how the majority of the time I'm in the saddle. Perfect view out of the left, just raise the elbow a touch on the throttle side and it's clear right under!
Give it a shot and see how you like it. Elliot's Hardware in Plano has some chrome acorn nuts for your mirror tops when you flip em.
