I was riding to work today and saw a bike with a third mirror on left side..

Two normal mirrors and what appeared to be a small maybe even 2" barend mirror hanging down on the left side of the handle bar..

Has anyone seen this before..

I know I'm beautiful. I don't need a vanity mirror.

No, seriously, what's it for?

I don't know what type mirror you saw, but on one of my bikes I attached small convex mirrors to the fairing. -- They give you a wide view of whats behind.

The fuse/relay box covers are a good place to drop some blindspot mirrors on. No one knows they're there but you (don't take away from the looks of the bike). They're not perfect, but better than nothing, and nice when you're leaned in as you don't have to pull back up to see the regular mirrors.

Look a pair that have angled backs not flat. See pic below.
