Arlen Ness Scoop Mirror When I wanted to customize my 650 V-Star "Midnight," I gave some thought as to what I could do to it that wouldn't break the bank. And of course, one of the easiest answers to that question comes in chrome. Chrome is my favorite color. And Arlen Ness makes pretty, pretty chrome. So I took a look at all the various styles of mirrors that are out there, and sure enough, Mr. Ness makes a wide assortment of aftermarket mirrors, from the obligatory iron cross surrounded by flames, to teardrops, to these pointed "scoops".

The mirrors are beautifully detailed with a chrome line bisecting the scoop and sharp points at both ends. They are reminiscent of both bat's wings and
medieval weaponry. They are incredibly bad-ass without being ostentatious. Can you use them to see what's behind you? No, not really. Do they have a cool factor of 11? Yes. If you're a stickler for having lots of visibility, then these are not the mirrors for you. But if you don't mind glancing over your shoulder quite a bit when you ride, you'll be ok. Once the flashing red and blue lights get close enough, you do notice them.

Keep in mind that Arlen Ness sells these mirrors as singles, not in sets. So you'll need to purchase the right and the left mirrors separately. Also keep in mind that for many bikes you'll need a special adaptor sleeve to install the mirrors, called a Shock Absorbing Chromed Mirror Mount. The mirrors run about $45 each -- and they're just about as sexy as mirrors can get.

Here's a chrome mirror kit that has an added swivel feature.
