Has anyone tried those Pig Spotter mirrors?

Has anyone out there tried using those Pig Spotter or Pig Spotter 2 mirrors from ST Machine?

I don't want to drop $100 to turn around and try to sell them on E-bay.

The info shows for R1-R6, but the look low and I'm not sure what the sight lines would be. Maybe in tandem with bar end mirrors?

Any info would be great, thanks.

Can't imagine they're very useful and certainly not worth $100. They are all over the place on eBay...I would just stick with the bar-end mirrors if you want to replace the stock ones.

Pig spotters fulfill the requirement of having mirrors... nothing more... if you expect to be able to see out of them, throw that idea away...

It's "squid-gear"

You're right, squid gear

I think you're right, it's squid gear. I don't think they'd even work for blind spot mirrors.

Even the name of those mirrors is squidly, "Pig Spotters?" Just for that squidliness alone I hate them. When I see a bike with them I just roll my eyes...
