Mirrors with Integrated Signals

Just got mirrors in today and can already tell I wont have as much visability as I do with stocks... just when I thought I could get rid of those big antennas!
 
cant decide

My bike is actually apart right now with the gsxr mirror on one side and the generic on the other side with my wife holding the stock close to where it would be if installed and I just cant fricken decide. The generic looks the best and as I mentioned has those little blue lights on the mirror side to remind you to turn the fricken signal off. The GSXR sticks out almost straight vs. a 45 degree angle and offers a little better vision behind you but your hand/grip are right in the middle of the mirror. Then there is stock which look like dumbo ears but offer the best visability.

The one on the right does like very sharp thou. But visibility is key. I want to change mine too and loved these ones you have but not sure now because of visibility factor.

Do you have them on your bike?whats visibility like?
I really like the look of these. I've never bought anything from ebay before!

No, I don't have them. I just ordered a pair. I too have never got anything from ebay, simply because it's a pain in the *** dealing with paypal. However, i'll let you know what I think! They look pretty awesome, so who knows

I don't think the whole post was read :)
those will fit your bike but I don't think you will be able to see Crap, they seem to be made mostly for super sports with really narrow bars. Now granted my bars are raised 2" and im short so maybe its different for everyone but with these mirrors you can see the lanes next to you ok and your arms great, but directly behind you cant see at all. I switched to the GSXR mirror which is giving much better visability behind than those, but still not quite as good as the stock. GSXR might actually be better if you don't have the risers on, these generic ones im not sure. I also noticed that because the GSXR mirrors are bulb it slowed my flash rate back down for my flush mounts and rears. you can see in my picture the difference in the looks between the two. ill post another when I get them both mounted. The ones I got had a crack so waiting for replacements in a matt black instead of glossy.
