Default Roadglide Mirrors
Can anyone recommend some good mirrors for this bike? I am tired of looking at my shoulder. I was thinking the Harley split vision.

Cheers
Gary

I used the HD turn signal mirrors. Higher (about 1.5 inches) than stock,, good rearward vision, and get an extra set of LED signals and running lights too.

I have the Kuryakyn Magnums and like them. I think they gave me another inch or so...

I did an extended Kuryakyn like PJ when I had my Roadie - they were a ton better than the stock. Work great on my Street Glide too!

I went with Kuryakyn mirrors too like some other responders. I liked them because the arms went out further but not up. I originally tried just the HD extensions but did not care for the 'bug antenna' look they gave my mirrors.

I have the HD Split Vision mirrors which have a small built in convex mirror. They work great on my FLTR.

Put a set of handlebars on it & get the mirrors up above your elbows.
