Has anyone tried the Kuryakyn blind spot mirrors with the Wild Ones? I really like my fairing mount mirrors and would rather not put any on my bars.

Does anyone know what length the clutch and brake cables would have to be if I want to run the cables the same path as the stock cables with the Wild Ones 575 bars. The bike is an 08 Street Glide?

+3 on the clutch cable....if using stock black vinyl get HD pn#38649-08. You should be able to use the OE brake line by just doing a little rerouting work under the fairing.

You would just have to cross reference it by doing a +3 or if you use HD stainless then they would offer up the pn# in the P&A catalog as they have a chart that will cross reference it for the diamondbacks and stainless.

I did the 575's to my ride too. I love how they turned out but I still want to look in to kuryakyn extended mirrors...

One last question about the wild ones 575 bars. Will I need to use a different top clamp when I mount these bars or will the stock clamp work? Thanks for your input.
