Was going to take the X9 out tomorrow but don't think I'll bother with this foul weather.

Took one of my original rearview mirrors and cut an 8cm section out of the stem to shorten it. I'll let you know how it goes...

I am running the Orions, but with my GIVI AirFlo they are a bit hidden behind the edge of the hand -protection edge of the screen. I was looking at some SCHAFT Rusty mirrors, that would work better; sit a bit higher and further outboard...but about $250/pair!

Modifying my existing OEM mirrors would cost almost nothing. Did the first one, and it's PERFECT!

Here are pictures after I put the modified mirror on. No more edge obstruction, and it doesn't have the handgrip (and so your HAND) in the field of view, as it sits higher.
