I have a RT. 2023. You do not have to dip your head down. I find the stock mirrors fine. However the navigation system..........

[@motor8654]

I do, but I wear progressive prescription glasses. The mirrors are fine, but are way too low, not in your line of sight while looking down the road.
The Navigation system is pure garbage, with the damn Wifi dropping out all the time. I don't bother connecting my phone to the bike anymore. Get a Garmin ZumoXT. and all the troubles go away. It works off of GPS, and always works, not Wifi, like the BMW. This is the biggest disappointment with the bike, I should've kept my 2020 RT, real gauges, and a Garmin Nav V GPS, that worked.

I have not noticed a problem with the mirrors and my sat nav worked just about perfectly with Samsung Galaxy phones until May this year. I suspect a BMW nav. update was the culprit, and it successfuly sucked much of the joy out of a 2300 mile trip to Italy and back.

@@matthewberry577 That sucked, that the navigation gave you so much frustration, I stopped using the BMW Connected app. A stand alone GPS, is the way to go, I have a Garmin ZumoXT, and it's just so easy to use in comparison. The navigation on the TFT, was something I was excited to get, but sadly has been my biggest disappointment.

Stock morris are great and in line of sight for me

@@michaelturner9673 You should go check the stock mirrors again. They sit below the handlebar grips, and are way below any line of sight when looking down the road. These additional mirrors sit up high, and are in the line of sight with the road. If you try them, I think you'll like them, you could always return them too.

I noticed (I think) you have some bar extensions on your bike…what brand are they?
