Pretty bad idea. If anything, block off your mirror holes with something like the oval module here.

Or leave it stock, since the signal-mirror design is about the slickest and safest out there.

Maybe that's because the motorcycle is going in a STRAIGHT LINE when this happens so they would be using their signals?

I would never give up my front signals, I want every advantage possible when I'm out there in the mix. Same reason I would never go with an integrated tail light. I have very bright LED's in the back, with stock spacing.
