RE: Fairing Mirrors
I think they make the Streetglide's look, but they should offer a relocation kit for
different bars..out 1 inch and up 1/2 inch would solve it... maybe a snap on cover to hide the adaptor..
Stem mirror's just arent right for the SG.. besides, I plan to use those holes for GPS, SAT mounts for trips...

I love them and wouldn't have a batwing without them. I don't understand those who say they can't see anything behind them. They are adjustable and you just change the angle till you see the reflection you want.

RE: Fairing Mirrors
I just put them on a couple weeks ago. Before the s h i t t y weather hit I was able to get a little riding in.
I like the the cleaner looking front end. I like the angle and view.
I don't like the increased vibration. [&:]
I didn't see any other comments about vibration makes me wonder if I'm the only one who had increased vibration?

I love mine, but I'm still running the stock bars. I'm thinking about switching out my bars, so I'm concerned with how much the change will affect them.
Oh, and for some of those that are complaining about not being able to see at all with the fairing mount mirrors, run your VIN at the HD service website. There was actually a run of bikes that had the mirrors located in the wrong position. I can't recall the service bulletin number right now.

RE: Fairing Mirrors
That was one of my main concerns after I installed my mirrors this winter (vibrations) but when we had a break in the weather for a week or so, I found I had less vibration with the fairing mounts than the handlebar mirrors gave me. And I also found a better field of view with the fairing mirrors. I am only 5' 7" and maybe height has alot to do with the way they work. I wouldn't go back to the handlebar mirrors if I had to now. Love the way they work and look.
