Okay let's see if I can help. Kuryakyn has some mirrors that are incorporated into windshield trim. You could adjust them for her and they don't look bad at all either.



I'd get the ones without the lights myself.

You have to admit that it does sound kind of funny. If you are serious, the best advise would probably be to look at helmet mirrors for a bicycle helmet.

So I guess your Idea about a his and hers set of mirrors will work just fine.

Good Luck.
You are a crazy ****

With 3 posts under his belt, he might just be movin' on to one of those other, less intimidating Forums. I think the Gold Wing Forum has a Section dedicated to "Mirrors for the Passengers, Unlimited Options"..... LoL

We are having fun with the other posters. Don't think this is directed to you.
We are all looking at the posts, both good ideas, and those that are . . . well a bit off center. Any questions will most likely get the same ratio of responses.

Way up here in the frozen tundra, we use an elastic strap/wrist mounted mirror for snowmobiling. It slips on our wrist with the mirror (2" round) on top, and a simple arm up or out gives you a nice rear view. Anyplace that sells snowmobile accessories has them for $6.00
