I’m sticking with my stock mirrors. I like what they look like and the vision they give me. I often have to “filter” between the cars in my daily commute so I don’t need the bars any wider than they are. I run a brake lever guard because I’m paranoid about clipping a car mirror. I reckon filtering becomes lane splitting once you get over 50kph.

I am extremely happy with the Amazon mirrors I bought from the mention in this thread.
They are far more stable than the stock mirrors, especially at high speed. They also make quick checks easier because I dont have to look over my own body. I also appreciate the tint/coating on the mirrors.

I’m happy with these. The reason they out-perform the stock mirrors is two-fold. It’s partly do them sitting lower at the same distance out. This position more under your elbow than right at your elbow, so you get less obstructed view. The other reason they perform so well is due to the high performance lenses which are part convex and part aspheric. When you understand the geometry of the optics, you’ll be able to dial in the perfect position. While these look really nice at $160 each they are just too rich for my blood. Tax and shipping and thats an easy $350+ for new mirrors.

But who said anything about looks? I certainly didn't. In fact, I went out of my way not to, as it seems people tend to care more about how mirrors look than how they perform.

While I did not strictly mean look in the visual sense I can promise you that these www.amazon.com/KEMIMOTO-Handlebar-Rearview-Motorcycle-Kawasaki/dp/B071S21FV8perform every bit as good as they look. I know some will think cheap Amazon trash but you truly have to hold them in your hand to understand these things are quality made. I dont ever choose form over function when it comes to my bike. Sometimes more money != more better

They are great when I'm tucked and driving aggressively. I'm considering bar ends since its safer for me to be civil.

I'm considering bar ends since its safer for me to be civil. That's interesting and got me wondering why they work for me with casual street posture, but not for you. Maybe this will explain it, or perhaps it won't, but I'm 6'-1" and now that I think about, the mirrors just barely get a good unobstructed line of sight below my elbows, but if I was just a couple inches shorter, I'd probably be looking at me elbows unless I tucked. Maybe there's something to this, maybe not.

I will adjust them to see if I can get a better position. But those bar-end blinkers are cool. What is the details on them?

Those looks sweet but WOW they're pricey. Still cheaper than the OEM units though lol.

Have anyone installed a crg arrow on a 2022 mt10 yet Looking at the photos it appears to have the same bar end as the older MT’s. That not to say it’s different but odds are they will work.

Hello, I am riding a 2022 MT-10SP in Japan. Many people are wearing bar end mirrors, but I thought it wouldn't look good on a sports bike. The genuine mirror has a good shape and good visibility, but I thought that the adapter part was a little ugly. Therefore, by removing only the pole part of the genuine mirror and attaching it from an external adapter, the mirror is brought closer to the vehicle body. www.bii-ymck.com/product/-ymck-component-ulma1-/306?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=false&category_id=24

That actually looks pretty decent. My problem is that all I see out of the stock mirrors are the inside of my elbow. I need to get them farther from the vehicle body, not closer to it

As you say, with this mirror installed, it will be set on the inside of the elbow in order to get closer to the inside of the car body.
Due to the traffic situation in Japan, it is necessary to set it on the inside in order to pass between cars on narrow roads.
