I have them on my CB1300 and they give a much better view. Get some caps for the socket bolts though or they collect water and starts to rust.

You link comes back to me as a riser, I've found some for 7/8th to 1" o/d not sure this will fit the 400 as the i/d is 19mm?
Do folk use plain or Convex I preffer plain?

Found these they look tidy in black https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/311843938113?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649

Oberon is a great manufacturer, had a few bits off them over the years. Really nice!

The problem with bar end mirrors is that it can reduce your ability to filter through traffic, if you touch a car with them it's also much more likely to spill you onto the floor. Normal mirrors being higher up don't have these problems.

Interesting point you make Ken tbh I've never riden with bar end mirrors. The mirrors on my old XJ were 50% of the road  behind plus 50% of my jacket. Only time I clipped a car when weaving between traffic lanes I clipped an offside door mirror as I did a low speed wobble. I might re-think the originals or a DS copy if there okay. I only need one.
