Dentist mirrors are the ticket, when I was a kid the 1 percenters all had them on their choppers. It satisfied the law.
 
I'm not sure if they make pig spotters for ducatis but if they do that would be your best bet. I had them on my R6 and they are pretty damn small. Google pig spotters and see if they have a set for ducs.
 
some people thought it was in reference to spot cops but if you look at the design it like a pigs (the animal) ears when they have them back.
 
Here is what I used on mine. They work just fine - better in fact than the OEM mirrors which are great for seeing your own elbows and not much else.

Since first getting a set for my 1198s Corse I've absolutely loved both the look and useability of Moto Science mirrors. The ones on my 1199 Tricolore are MUCH better than stock and plug n play perfectly as well. Anyone interested in them is advised to call the owner Henri and tell him I sent you since he uses pics of my bike on his Facebook page and website as an advertising tool.
If you want pics I can post some when I get home.

Hi Gunny,

How's the visibility with your mirrors? With the stock ones I have a clear view of the titanium inserts located on the shoulders of my jacket. There's a tricolore on the site associated with model# 7392/93. Yours? Bada$$

Hey thanks alot for the kind comments! The visibility of the Moto Science mirrors are much better than stock for sure. Im not really sure if thats my bike you're speaking of but will have to check. I had some pro photos taken last summer which were used in an article done by Brocks who donated a set of wheels to my build project.

Hey guys,
I know is safe to use the 2 mirrors but I would like to remove both and somehow have a "really small...really small" ... that you cannot see it at all :D, just for the law. In Michigan you need one mirror on the bike, any size.

Please share your ideas...
I found a small turn signals that will work good.

I have removed my mirrors and use a REEVU helmet with built in rear view mirror. :D

Ya know what Claymore, when I was working w Belli we were gonna get some of those helmets to see how they would sell since the concept of it is truly cool for sure!
Any chance you can write down some of the pro and cons youve found about the thing since getting it for all of us please?
Id love to try one of those out one day!
 
Yeah - would love to hear some real world feedback on the Reevu :)

Not legal here in AU yet but have been looking at it for a while

Don't own one, but wore one on a ride.
At first, the rear view is really disconcerting, until you tell your brain to tune it out.

The helmet is definitely heavier, and also higher than my Shoei. What can you expect - they need to make it vertically taller to accommodate the optics. Noise wasn't anything special, typical.

I found the venting to be poor overall - again, to accommodate the optics.

That's about all I have to say. Would I buy one, probably not.
 
Here is my mirror project... I found one at hardware store for $3

Gunny the REEVU is not bad. It is heavier than my Xlite, noisier, not as aerodynamic and its visor does not seal as well, ventilation is not brilliant, but then it is not as expensive, protects my noggin sufficiently and provides a very good rear view (except it you have a passenger on the back).
I will happily bear with its faults until something better (maybe Skully) comes along. I would love it when somebody likes Arai (loves my RX7 Corsair) makes a helmet like that. :cool:
