Maybe something like this. Don't care for the look myself but might work for you.

I am changing the football next. I like your SG, it was a toss between the SG and the FB.

I love my bike too. Not sure which I would have chosen had they made the fatbob last year. I was at the dealer yesterday and they have a Fatbob identical to yours. I had to sit on it and feel it out. Felt good, love the factory bars but would have had the same issue with the mirrors.

2007fxdc,

I measured the stock mirrors, about 5" from elbow to mirror. Can you check yours to see how long the stem is from the elbow.

Thanks

RE: Mirrors-Need More Visibility

Harley makes some long stem mirrors. They are in the catolog and most dealers should have them. I used to ride a sporty and a Dyna convertable that both had the extended mirrors. (56 inch chest-damn near a whiskey barrel). With the mini apes on the WG the regular length mirrors work fine.

It's early but what do you mean by elbow? Are you talking about the connecting point of the mirror?
