Default long stem tapered mirrors

Anybody happen to try these as an alternative to the HD ones?

Seems like a good deal for the same looking type.

Default RE: long stem tapered mirrors

I have looked at mirrors with that type of extension before...Problem is
my bike has a fairly good vibration, even at an idle that lenght of stem would
case the mirror to jerk around to much...Would be OK perhaps at highway speeds
when the bike's vibration levels off but slowers speeds or an idle would be an issue..

I have the tapered long stem (black) mirrors #91910-03A/91909-03A with the Mirror Extension Kit #91907-87 on my Street Glide. I use the stock fairing mount mirrors for lane change spot mirrors. The combination works well for me.

I like the look of the stock mirror but did change to a set of sportster ones, same shape but longer arms, now I can see more than my elbow
