Right side mirror - bad design can't be twisted low enough to see rear traffic

The handle bar brake clamp that the right mirror stalk connects to raises the mirror to high. And the design of this mirror does not allow it to be rotated low enough to effectively see traffic coming behind you.

Clearly the fault lies in the enginner who did the design for the left mirror that connects lower and closer  to the handle bar and is fine. So he just flipped it on the CAD machine to create the right side mirror assuming it would be the same.

I have raised this with CFMOTO AUstralia twice and they do not even reply.
The plastic rear housing of the mirror could be filed down, as this plastic prevents any further folding of the mirror. I have to try it.
I don't like bar end mirrors as it gets in the way sticking out.
