All right, you guys convinced me to do it and I like it a lot. It's vibration on a stick but sure looks cool on my C5 ;D , I ordered it from our host right after I ordered the bike and I've just slowed down long enough to install it. Picts posted, What do you think?

Looks good on the bike. Little more class for a class machine.

I love them on my bike. Wouldn't trade them. The PO had put some smaller mirrors on that looked way better than the antenna's but I got tired of seeing my arms, I much prefer seeing behind me.
I also agree with Will, I do think they look classy.

I have napooeons on all my bikes. They have a rubber cusion in the bar, too. I think that helps the vibes- I can see quite well on my Bullet.

I have heard great things about those.

R80RT, It looks good on the left side of the bike, but I'm a symmetrical sort of guy and prefer to look at both sides. ;)

OT- sorry about that spelling up there! - Napoleon -
I can't read the print here on my home computer. It's bigger here at (my alleged) work, and I can read what I type.

The main thing is that you like it, r80rt. But certainly I do too. Looks very odd to have one on the left side only to me but that's me being from the UK. I expect one on the right only would look equally odd to you. You mention vibration - does it work OK?

I had to slightly modify it to fit with the bar end weights, It's terribly blurry at speed but I can still tell if a vehicle is behind me or not, Thanks for the kind words guys.

I like it with just the one mirror on the left.
That's how I have had it on all my bikes.
My current Bullet only has one mirror on the left side.
Mine isn't a napoleon mirror, but it's a type of bar end mirror.
I had a Napoleon on all my old Ducatis and my Laverda too.
Just one on the left side.
