Tired of looking at my shoulders!!! I need some long mirror stems
Would like to keep the factory mirrors
Anyone know where I can get some on the net?
Thanks for the advice

I'm not sure what you're riding... but some of it has to do with where the bars position your hands.
I've got an 08 FXDF with Fat Boy bars & risers... these are the mirrors I'm using (the 3" ones):

There are optional long stems available (the mirror & stem are two seperate pieces):

I had the same issue when I switched to drag bars.
I know you said you wanted to keep the stock mirrors but incase that isnt a option here is what I bought.
Kury Magnum Plus - they have 2inch longer stems and I can see again

I have the same problem I put on narrower zbars and now i cant see. I'm thinking of putting on bar end mirrors from joker machine but they are very pricey. I'd really like to see if you find a solution and let us know.

When I went to drag bars I had the same thing. Bought a set of after market mirrors but they vibrated to much. went with paul yaffe grips and grip end mirror. They cost but I got lucky and got the mirror and stem on ebay. I like the look and works great.

Do you have to move your hand position to see in the mirrors?

The mirror extensions work and are the quick and easy cheap way to keep your stocker mirrors. Dad put them on his ultra and they made a world of difference in seeing around the tour pack.
