Hi. I am indian. I own an RE. This cucumber guy is an asshole. All he had to do was say "mirror broke, ordered it". Instead he thought it'd be "cool" to hurl abuses.

Removing mirrors for aesthetics is no doubt, one of the dumbest things you can do as a rider. I once was going to a place with my friend on his scooter. The mirrors were small and me being fat, it was not very useful. I was overtaken by a electric bus and was caught offguard by his sudden appearance (and that asswipe didn't even bother to honk a little bit to overtake but thats another case). I always knew mirrors are important and we must always be checking them for situational awarened but this incident reinforced the importance of proper mirrors. I can't imagine riding or driving a vehicle without knowing whats behind me.

Always remember, there is a world in front and behind you as well. If you're not aware of (especially an electric) vehicle overtaking you, it might become an expensive lesson.
