Mirrors are flat.

And as far as the pig spotters go...

I'm guessing visability is extremely low. Probably there just so you can say, "I have mirrors." I would imagin the functionality of them are quite low. Put it this way. When I look in my mirrors, I have to bring my elbow in a pinch to see everything - and my mirrors come off the bike about 7 inches overall!

Those spotters are ON your bike, not sticking out. You can figure it out. On the other hand, I bet you can see really well while in a full tuck, as I am constantly on the highway. With my mirrors, I have to come out of the tuck, but I bet you don't with those.

Hmmm...

Man they're just some no-name "carbon fiber" teardrop style mirrors. I picked 'em up on eBay for like $17 for the pair. Surprisingly, they're pretty damn good mirrors. They stay in place and the boot doesn't shift around like the OEM mirrors.

I'll see if I can find ya a link...

Dere ya go!

I'm not gonna spend $100+ on a set of mirrors I'm probably going to rash and trash given the fact that this is my first streetbike.

$20 to get legal and look decent... no decision.

In a full tuck going down the highway, it makes all the difference. I'm not sure how much room you're gonna have, but it should help a great deal.

When I ride the highways and it's windy, I'm in a full tuck and I'm actually quite comfortable. No more wind issues, sometimes, it even gets eerily quiet!
