Those look good man! Think you'll be able to keep the mirrors on the fairing?

Yep! Im 5'7" and i can see just fine. The only part i cant see out of is the top inboard corners. Not a big deal. Clear view of cars behind me from the rest of the mirrors.

Had a friend help me. Pretty easy. He said it was a LOT easier than the 2013 and older bikes. Biggest pain was re-routing brake and clutch lines.

Looks good! I had a set of wild1 chubbys on my deuce, very easy to wire and felt great. The 12" vindiktas and now 16" prime apes I had/have on my SGS were a pain to wire but turned out nice.
