I'm just saying ... I ride with a mirror, and like it just as much (maybe more) as anyone can like anything useful in their lives. Still, let's not get crazy. I defy anyone to prove, by using a mirror, that the fast approaching Miata in the rearview will slice past with 5" clearance or instead will impact the left handlebar causing a loss of control and fall. Bonus points if you can predict that the impact point will actually be your left knee requiring a BKA. SMH.
