I like to lean back while riding, but sit up straight at stops. One set of mirrors just wasn't doing the job, so I fabricated a couple of aluminium brackets and mounted an additional set of stock mirrors.

nice idea, but look a bit weird, I think your desing will be pretty controversed

Very mod.
I had thought about adding a pair of mirrors where the reflector's are on the side of the light brackets, so when you're leaned out over the handlebars you could still see back.

I can understand the need for more mirrors, as i can see behind me on the metro (too fat for that scooter). But i think i rather install bigger ones than having multiple units

I would've just used one of those stick on blind spot mirrors on my right hand mirror. Or possibly a set of 2" round bar-end mirrors to be less obtrusive. I do appreciate the drive to mod though. Nice job!

But i think i rather install bigger ones than having multiple units he added mirrors to have them ajusted at different angles for different riding positions, what biggers mirrors would not be able to do(unless you break thems)

Yeah, I've got my left mirror positioned for when I'm leaned forward, and the right mirror for when I'm leaned back. Would be nice to have a mirror for each side in either riding stance.

Wish they made bi-focal mirrors.

Hmm.....it's sort of a modern 'mod' look. That's kinda fun to say. Personally I'm not stoked with the look but it's okay. It doesn't look bad so much as it just looks wierd. You're going to get a lot of questions on the street with this setup.

Looks kinda 'busy', doesn't it? It could never work for me- I'm usually too busy re-welding my mirror stem cause I [or the kids!] have gone off-roadin', and broke the dam thing off! With this, I'd have twice as much welding to do!!!
