I never really liked the "droopy ear" look of the Rizoma 851's. I wondered what I could do to change it. So I swapped the sides on the mirrors and turned them upside down.










Not only did it improve the looks (to me) but it also inproved the field of vision. Before, I always had to focus for a second because the orientation was lower right hand corner vs. top of the mirror. Now the top of the mirror is the first field of vision I see. My elbow is also less in the way.

Looks good!
Those black bracket arms really look good on the bike. Looks much better than stock.

I haven't found them here. I know you can get them from Trojan Horse Moto:

I have a set of 851's that I have had for a week and a half. I thoughtI'd like them but I just don't like the look on my bike. If anyone is interested 175.00 shipped. thats saving you some cash over what they cost. They are the polished ones. They are finger printed in the pics but thats just from handling when I put them on.
