Can you see anything with them? They look like they wouldn't be long enough to get around my arms...
YeahSo today was the first day it’s finally been warm enough to ride since I got them - so great timing lol. Honestly, you have to kinda do the chicken wing maneuver to see behind you. I tried various positions - chicken wing, tucking my arm as tight against my body as I could (im fairly thin so this would depend on body type), dropping my arm down entirely, and even scooting into different lane positions depending on what mirror I was trying to look in. Chicken wing worked best. Definitely a downgrade in practicality from the stock mirrors - but a massive upgrade for aesthetics.
Definitely important to adjust them properly before you take off as well - I forgot to before I left work (didn’t need them on the way in since nobody’s on the road when I leave for work in the mornings) and trying to adjust them - especially the right since we don’t get the luxury of cruise control - while driving was a giant pain in the ass. But I needed to because the road was much busier than normal and it turned out I had some jerkoff riding my ass.
