    When I got my VTR, I thought the mirrors sucked.
    I eventually found that the stalks pivot forward, and could suddenly see behind me.
    Look after them though, I broke one and was quoted $275 for a new one.
    Capital Cruise and TT2000 2012. Looking forward to my two big rides!

    Oem mirrors are ugly period,set of bar-ends is the answer,not to mention yu can actually see behind you.

    I move my elbows in. In fact it's never occurred to me to change mirrors.
