    I’ve only had the new T120 a week, (420 miles) but I’m tired of looking at my shoulders and elbows in my mirrors. Has anyone had experience with Norman Hyde mirror extenders?

    I haven't had any experience of Norman Hyde mirror extenders specifically but I did have a pair of Chinese mirror extenders on a Honda I used to own. They work well and increase the rear vision to make it acceptable.

    The other way of solving the problem is to fit bar end mirrors, which I have fitted to my T100 Bonneville

    These look interesting. Shipping from the UK to the U.S. would be 39 pounds. If I go that route, I need to find a supplier here in the U.S.

    I have the triumph mirrors in the post above on my speedmaster, needed to dip my elbow to see behind me. Almost did not see a police car behind me one day so needed to do something. Got a cheap pair of extenders off eBay and fitted them the wrong way around to take the type of mirror. Works really well but at over 80 they do get a bit bleary, I think they add a bit more vibration but happy with the fix
