Turning all the way around to look behind you on a bike is ridiculous and unsafe. Just as bad if not worse if you do it in your "cage". Like I said, at most I glance over my shoulders on the Ninja. If you must do this because you cannot see out of your mirrors, its time to modify your mirrors to work for you.

I've towed a thing or two in my day also and totally agree that when you can't see behind you, you must trust your mirrors. Maybe I misunderstood your "glance" because I also agree that turning completely around is un-neccessary. The point is not to soley trust the stock 250 mirrors as they do not provide the ultimate coverage.
