I am surprised with all of the monkey bar installed on this site no one tried a pair of 10's with their fairing mirrors.

I got my bars today. They are nice bars. Now i just can't wait to see them on. It is hard to tell without them being on if you would be able to use fairing mount mirrors or not.

I have the 12" monkey bars on mine and can barely see out of the mirrors unless I lift my arm. You will never be able to see anything in the mirrors with 10's.

You can always install tweeters in the mirror holes.

These are 10" Monkey Bars. I took the mirrors off though. Still should give you an idea of whether or not the fairing mounted ones would work.
