Depends how big she is whether you need the "trailer" mirror mounts to see around her.

Do you have a Pan America? Really any bike with TBW will not work. Bar end mirrors work until one falls off on the highway. Happened to me on my Triumph.

Stock Harley mirrors are not wide enough to see past my shoulders. I use the longer police length mirrors.

These bar end mounts would not work for me, but may work for others. As long as you do not have TBW.
