Default Handle bar mirrors?

anyone ride with handle bar mirrors that go on the end of the handle bar and hang down, or up?? I hate the stock mirrors and want to know if they work better or are just for looks, can you see any better?

Yes- it's my second post about mods! I'm ready to let go of the stock!

I took off my stock mirrors because they sucked. Went to a bicycle shop and put on bar-ends. I can see EVERYTHING to the sides AND behind. I SERIOUSLY recommend them.

I have used bar end mirrors on two of my bikes. I love the look. I had some Skyking mirrors on my sporty, they looked better than they worked, mainly because of the shape of the mirror. You could see a car to your left and look in the mirror and he looked 5 car lengths behind you. But I got used to it.

I have the CRG lane splitters on the Triumph. I love them! And I can see better than the stock mirrors, due to the placement of the mirror.

And I think they look great
