Which mirrors? This one or this one?

Rating the mirror - 9/10
I was pleasantly surprised. The mirrors do not vibrate any more than the stock ones did. I bought the ones with the ridges:
Along with the HotBodies flush mount LEDs and an aftermarket turn signal relay, I have to say - it looks pretty good!
I give it a 9/10 only because the part of the mirror that connects to the stalk is narrower than stock. With oem mirrors, I could put my left hand on my thigh and I was able to clearly see everything behind me through my underarm - that vision is reduced a bit now, though I have plenty of mirror on the outside of my elbow when I have my left hand on the grip.
I used the oem bolts that were holding the oem mirrors in place and added washers. I don't know if that help(s/ed) with the lack of vibration.
I uploaded a video. The LEDs are yellower in the video.

not bad.. wish they were a tad brighter though.. that is exactly what I am thinking of doing with my F4. Id do the same hotbodies in the fairings and the mirrors would be the main signal for cagers to see... I am weary of flushmounts because I feel that people wouldnt see them at all... Do you have any vids you could upload of them during the daytime?
Thanks
