Default Batwing mirror kit?
I have a 2012 SG with stock mirrors. Is there a kit or adapters that I can't find that either drop the mirrors a little bit or move them out a little bit? I can see now but my hand is in about 1/3 of the mirror and I have zero interest in handlebar mounted mirrors.
There's gotta be something? I found the Pingels but only for 2014 and up and $300 for theirs is crazy!
Thanks

Krator has ones that move the mirrors up and out. My hands were blocking the mirrors and now, not so much. I too was no fan of handlebar mirrors....

I chose the Kuryakyn ones with turn signals...

I'm guessing I'll need new mirrors with that?
I was hoping to find a small adapter that lets me use my stock mirrors....just up or over a bit.

That is what the Krator link is for.... That is the adapter to use stock mirrors. I just chose another way, since I have lots of chrome on my scoot.

That's almost the exact same kit I used to move my handlebar mirrors up and out.

I went with the HD windshield trim mirrors. After putting on 10" bars the stock were useless. These are great.
