i have and love them.
I got them so i can split/filter more easily so they fulfil their purpose.
They are good for seeing things within 10m of you but after that things are too small but how far do you need to look behind you.
If you need to look at yourself regularly or spend time looking behind you rather than what is ahead, you will not like them.
The lights did not work on mine but I do not want anything flashing on my bike anyway.
I had them sprayed the same colour as my paint too so they blend in.

do you have any other angles of the bike. Would be interesting to see as they didnt have any kawks on the ebay page. That is an 06-07 10?
Let the good times roll.

You can split and filter just fine with normal mirrors - most times the OEM mirrors will well above the line of most car mirrors, and below most 4WD mirrors - there will always be exceptions though.

Personally - I want to see things way more than 10m behind me ! 10m is such a small distance at speed, anyone moving up behind you then out to pass, would be past before you saw them in the mirror. I also hate the 'convex' thing where the image looks smaller than it actually is - I reckon this wreaks havoc with depth perception.....

but I have to be honest.....the main reason I hate 'em is because Kishy loves them - therefore clearly they must be crap !!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Besides the fact they are illegal and useless, they just look wrong. I think these go in the same category as extended swingarms, spikes all over your bike and neon's, often accompanied by huge chicken strips as well. :lol:

If you really want to see some different angles I can take a few pics and post them.

Hey Mikey Miss D and i had them on our bikes but more for when we showed them. They looked alright with the silver and crome but not the best vision.
