Default Split Vision Mirrors

Has anybody tried these mirrors? Pt# 92190-06 thinking of putting these on the UC.

Hi,I have them on my Dyna(got pics.if you like),they take a bit of getting used to as&nbsp\\;they dont work the same as the Splits on a car(where in the split&nbsp\\;you only see the Passing vehicle once it gets upclose &amp\\; alongside)you can see aproaching vehicles at the same time in both sections.But there is definatley no blindspot for an overtaking vehicle to hide in.I like them now i'm used to them,I think they're a good safety item.
Cheers,Brit.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;

I put them on the wife's Deluxe and hated them.&nbsp\\; IMO, the convex mirror is tilted the wrong way.. TOWARD the rider.&nbsp\\; It offered NO vision into the blind spot area.&nbsp\\; I couldn't see if a car was on either side of my rear fender by glancing in the mirror.&nbsp\\; If you looked at the standard flat mirror (left side), and noticed the paint mark on the left lane, then looked at the "blind spot" mittor, it was at the SAME point.&nbsp\\; I COULD see the right side of the road from my left mirror... but.. that's what my right mirror is for.&nbsp\\; I got rid of them.
&nbsp\\;
Good luck.

I put them on and could not get used to them.&nbsp\\; Drove me nuts!&nbsp\\; Returned them.&nbsp\\; To each his own.&nbsp\\; I'd only buy them from a reputable dealer who will allow you to try them&nbsp\\;a few days.

I too love these. they eliminate all blind spots and let you see around your shoulders &amp\\; tourpak. I rented a bike in Las Vegas and really missed them. Best design Harley makes.

Same for me, if to do over I'd get something else..too much money for what they do not do.

I like them. They do take some getting used to though.

I love them and have had on 2 bikes. I see more behind me. Just takes adjusting to the right position. They are a must for me.

I took small blind spot mirrors from any auto parts store, about a buck each, and popped them out of the backing plate.&nbsp\\; I then used double sided tape and stuck them to my stock mirrors.&nbsp\\; They look like they were made that way and I spent less then $3.00.&nbsp\\; If I didn't like them I would be out a little effort and beer money.
