I was just thinking the last couple of days how I'd like to have some sort of fish eye to see the traffic.  I have CruiserCustomizing Chrome Oval Cruiser Mirrors and they use flat mirrors.  Once I'm on the freeway it's very hard to see what else is going on around me.  Normally I like to create a proximity image in my mind of who is where so I can plan for escape paths, but I'm finding it hard to do it with these mirrors that just show directly behind me.  I suppose that's what you get for looking cool...

Caution:  Objects in mirror are MUCH closer than they appear.

Hmmm... Very interesting idea... But I'm afraid I know some people who'd get into a wreck since they'd be so busy admiring how cool they look... Wink

Yeah, I was thinking it looks like an idea with a lot of merit, but I'd be probably weirded out staring at myself riding down the road.

Maybe our advanced technology could come up with a way to overlay the image of the rider in the middle.   Roll Eyes

I already have small convex mirrors on my side views. Also, there's no room because of all the the motorsen gauges I have mounted there, lol.
