Does anyone have a solution to glare in the mirrors? With the Winter sun so low, I've been getting into situations where the glare is a problem. Late afternoon today I was entering onto the superslab and couldn't see a thing behind me. So naturally I sped up to "clear" the field, and that worked. But that's not always possible. I'm wondering if applying a dark film would help. Thanks, Paul.

I did notice they were collecting a bit of fog in the cool damp weather. Maybe I need to take some anti-fog measures.

Having the same problem as you bro.

I noticed that the Kawasaki ZX-6R 2004-2008 (and possibly other models) have the exact same mirrors + housings as we do, but with TINT. I'm scouring Ebay for a cheap set, just going to switch out the glass :)

That's interesting about the Kawi. I've got some film lying around here somewhere. It would be a cheap test of how effective the tint would be. I need to give it a try.
