Does anyone use the CIPA extreme or ellipse mirror? I wanted to see my riders when they cut out but didnt know if the Extreme was way too big and goofy looking. The Ellipse is alot smaller. Or if you guys have any other brands you like....

Thanks,

I just bought the CIPA Extreme. Its pretty large, but its not as tall, I like the size. I haven't gotten to use it yet though (damn frozen lakes!) I've seen it on an MC before and it looked perfect in size, which is why I wanted it.

i have been secretly hoping to break my mirror so that i can get the extreme. can't justify the expense, unless it needs to be made. or the bad luck associated with breaking a mirror, maybe i should hope to lose it instead?

Post it on the classifieds and jump on ebay. Mirrors are cheap right now.

Also, lots of people are using two mirrors these days to see the blind spot on the opposite side better (leave on passenger side windshield out of driver's way. You wouldn't drive your car/truck without 3 would you?
