Got me a new bike..

[Barts]

I am now going to test the theory "there's no such thing as a stupid question" ..

Q. Exactly how should I angle my rear view mirrors?

Maybe it's just me needing to get use to riding a bike however I am finding it hard to see (and feel comfortable) with what's behind me!

I either see my shiny new jacket arms or adjust further and take in a great view of er nothing.

So I've given the odd "lift the arms out and see the reflection of my under-arms" however that just looks stupid.

I am looking over my shoulder when changing lanes but what about all other times.

It's OK if your pissing yourself laughing. It's all good fun eh.

I park my bike up the driveway and set my mirrors so I can see the end of the driveway in both without ducking or moving my head to get a better view, this seems to work for me and on the road I have plenty of vision.

Q. Exactly how should I angle my rear view mirrors?

backwards!

I use same method as ducatilover, but have to angle mine in a bit further so they converge about 15m behind me otherwise I just see shoulders.

Nice choice in bike, I like the muffler location on them, and honda reliability

Q. Exactly how should I angle my rear view mirrors?

I hear ya matey, I've just bought virtually the same bike, look like the same mirrors too, and I find I have to slide my head out to get past my shoulders.

Will try out those suggestions though.

Nice bike dude, and happy riding!
