Don't use spot mirrors or additional mirrors and find the standard 2010 RT mirrors fine, not the best but does the job for me.

This is starting to sound like the scene from Spartacus when Crassus (Olivier) was telling Antonius (Tony Curtis) that some men liked meat whilst others liked Fish. (What's called a euphemism I believe?)


I don't remember Antonius liking both though. Perhaps we could persuade Casbar and GuzziRick to send us pics of them in Togas on an RT? ;)

Been to a few toga parties in my time, but unfortunately don't have any white sheets  :whistle:

I noticed that after fitting the 1" bar risers on my 11 RT the mirrors are far more usable  :)  I've got some of the adjustable 'blind spot mirrors' on my old works van and don't trust them one bit! I still end up peering to the side after looking in them just in case  ???
The GS 'is' the better bike :-)
