bottom mirrors on tallboy bars
 
I need new bars on my FLHTK, Going with tallboy bars, but I want to hang the mirrors below the bars....not on top.
Are there specific mirrors for this? Can any HD mirrors be hung under or is there some type of kit to accomplish this idea?

I dont believe there are specific mirrors for this, but my experience with 14" bars (which are taller, I think than tall boy bars and thus more likely to work) was that running mirrors under the grips made the mirrors completely useless.

Just unbolt amd turn over but watch your tank.

Friend of mine put tall bars on, don't know which ones, and I really like the mirrors hanging down. I had no issue at all seeing with them. In fact I think it was more natural looking at them hanging down than it would have been if they were up.

I have a SGS never touched the mirrors on my fairing as my bars are 16" inch....i like lookimg at them so much, just did my RK, but i swear i took the right mirror and put that under my left grip and my left mirror and placed that on my right grip...just the way the stem was positioning them....it does take some time to get used to them....

i recently bought set of Russ Wernimont Designs Oval Mirrors for a set of Burly Brand 13" bars and i love them. I am a wide guy and i can see around myself which is awesome.

Did it with mine and no issues. 10" bars and crossed mirrors to sit under. It'll depend on how they look for you. I can look just under my arms on both sides and see them clearly.
