Default Fairing Mirrors

How do you like your fairing mount mirrors? I'm thinking about trying them, any thoughts?

I'm going to remove mine when I open up the fairing to install the hog tunes. The fairing mirrors are great looking, but they are not functional for me. I can hardly see anything behind me when I ride.

I left mine for lane spot mirrors and added long stem on extension to the handlebars; between the two pairs I have great rear vision.

They don't give me as much of a view as I had hoped... I think I'll check out fatboylust's idea of adding the long stemmed ones.

Thanks for posting this information. I've wondered about those mirrors myself.

I love mine. They are functional and give the bike a much cleaner look

If it were not for the holes I would offer to trade you for your stock mirrors. I will be going back to the stock mirrors and using both sets also, the better my mirrors the safer I feel.
