Tips for crossing oncoming ramp lanes.
Like when you are approaching a cloverleaf and you are going to pass the oncoming ramp that is on the right, and you need to see behind you on the right side to see if a car is approaching. Or just to monitor one that you saw approaching from far back before you hit the exit area.
Hard to crane my neck around far enough to keep checking for oncoming traffic as I cross over to the shoulder.
Any thing work for you?
All I can think of is a mirror on the right side of the bike so I can see over me right side and behind me.

I wear right and left eyeglass-mounted Take-a-Look mirrors and the right-hand one is excellent in that situation, with just a sideward glance, and I still easily monitor upcoming traffic on my left.
