Nice bike, love the look of the mirrors. How did they work with the new electrical system? I'm looking for mirrors to double as a turn signal but was told it's difficult for 2011 and up. Do you get any warning lights on the dash?

I saw these in a cataloge and liked em, thought they'd add to the "sinister" theme I was working toward.

Ride Safe,

New Bikers Choice 4" round mirros have arrived...to bad they didn't make a 3". But I still dig them big time for simple old skool. I am hoping the beefy tins that are promised this week (YA RIGHT WILL SEE) will justify the 4" mirrors.

Midgard thanks! I've wondered about the apes, but not sure I could get rid of my beach bars. When I'm ready to change up the look though, that'll probably be my mod.

Thanks the bike is getting there! The led signal mirrors work great with the new Fatboy Lo (2011/2012?). The bike is designed so that led lights do not require additional resistors to equalize load. For earlier bikes, you may need to add a resistor to prevent the flashers from lighting up too rapidly.

Basically, I removed the old side view mirrors and signals... Cut the old wires... And just soldered on the new signal mirrors with heat shrink cover.

Thanks...
