Default Need usable mirrors for Night Train

I put drag bars back on my Night Train and then realized (I had forgotten) how bad the mirrors are with the narrow bars. Anyone have any recommendations on longer stem mirrors that work. I don't want to do bar ends. Thanks!

I have the Ness Stealth II mirrors. They do the job for me and look MUCH better than the OEM ones.

I love my PM Torque Mirrors.Great style and I can actually see out of them.They make them in black as well.Size comparison is with a stock Harley mirror.

I have Harley flame mirrors. They came with the bike. They look better then stock but not great. But, they are functional as hell. nice large size and great placement.

Thanks. I will check those out. Summer is easier with the mirrors, but looking around my shoulders with a winter jacket on is a pain.

Check out the Wicked Image Warhead Mirrors

I really like mine, they have a built in blind spot mirror and let me see a great deal of the road behind me. Plus I think they are a close match to the Harley OEM style just a bit smaller. A little exspensive, but they're a quality product. I purchased mine through JPCycles after I used a coupon code they came to around 150 or so I think.

+1 on the HD tribal flame mirrors. They look better then the stock mirrors and you can see out of them better then the stock mirrors.

Mirrors just don't work well with narrow bars...the only thing you can see are your shoulders. Any mirrors that will let you really see would look like crap...because the stems would be so long. Been there, done that...the only real cure is wider bars.

I liked the stock mirrors on my LO, but could not see out of them. So I tried the Harley extenders, wast of money. Next was the Kuryakyn extenders which work perfect for me. I might even change to the edge cut mirrors later but will still need the extenders.
