Searching has narrowed my mirror choice to these two. If you have experience with either (or both), could you share why you chose one over the other?

There are lots of threads on mirrors, but I couldn't find any opinions or experience comparing these specific mirrors. As a newb, I apologize for asking a question on a tired subject...

Thanks,
Jeff

I agree with Limey. I use the CRG Lane Split Bar Ends. They are the best mirrors I've had so far. No vibration issues, great visibility due to the convex glass, and keeps height of the wide clearance area of my bars to a minimum.

CRG is the only one for me. Get the lane splitters, I love mine and the parts are all replacable don't know if the same can be said about the Rizoma's. :-D

+1. The lanesplitters are great mirrors. You can even get away with just one, as the visibility is so wide behind you and to the side. I have two only because I'm used to having one on each side and feel more comfortable that way. I'm not sure what the Rizomas cost, but if you shop carefully the CRGs can be had for $65-70 each.

Add another vote in, I ordered the CRG's last week. I'm looking forward to putting them on once they get here!

If you like the CRG you will love the Sky King unit. Looks like it was OEM compared to the CRG's IMO..
