Can you actually see better? I don't mean field of view, I'm referring to image vibration.
Thanks

I did the fairing mount mirrors and I love them. A word of advice though...in the instructions it advises you not to tighten the bolts too tight...THEY MEAN IT! I've got a right mirror that's being held on by super glue! It's held a few months now, I figure why buy a new set until I must! I had to glue it from the inside, but it looks perfect on there.
