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...

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

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.
