Being the broad-shouldered athlete that I am (hm, hm) I had difficulties in using the rear view mirrors of my SW, since most of what I saw was the image of my own arms & shoulders.

So I had a peek on this forum and found out about 'mirror extenders'.

Orderder a pair from the UK (customizedchoppers) at £19.99 + a very reasonable £1 for p&p to Belgium. They arrived only three days later are were installed in a few minutes.

Quote :
A simple to fit mount that gives your mirror an additional 40mm horizontal and 27mm vertical extension. Enough to prevent your shoulders appearing in the majority of mirrors.

Fits Japanese 10mm mirror stems that have a clockwise (right hand) thread.

Now I finally can see what is happening behind me
(i. e. cars getting smaller very fast after traffic lights turned to green Cool )

Older CB750 mirrors will do same thing.

I replaced the stock mirrors with ones with longer stems. Always have to do this or I see nothing but ME in the mirror!!! Looks like a good option. Laughing

I have the extenders. One of the best and cheapest mods I did on my Swing. Smile
