What helps is if you move the mount to the clutch perch... you can get a bracket that is secured by the left mirror stem with a RAM ball on it.

If you miss a turn, you aren't checking your mirrors enough
Interesting idea. I currently have it on the center of the bars via ram mount. I'll hold it in the position you mentioned by hand and if it's better then I'll invest in the mirror mount.
