unfortunately you might just have to get used to bending your elbow's in.

+1 (also try those round bubble mirrors stick on things) Helps with checking your blind spot. Other than that, tucking in your elbows is usually the only way.

I have been looking for the same thing, and the only thing I found was from
"SW-Motech" available from http://www.twistedthrottle.com

Haven't been able to really find if people like them or not. The elbow view
is really annoying, especially when I ride with my wife and I like to know she is
still there.

Yeah......."Convex Mirrors". (I'm not the best person to ask for the names of parts).

I believe they also sell "convex" type mirrors for sportbikes. (entire Mirror is "convexed"). Seen them, but haven't tried them yet.
