Default Need mirror suggestions

I'm thinking about some new mirrors for my Ultra.

Looking for something a bit longer to see past my shoulders.
Not crazy about the cat's eye thpe, or the real thin/skinny ones, nor round or the HD big square ones.
I've looked at the HD and kuryakyn site...

Anyone know of a good site with lots of choices?

Thanks,
Joe

I've used the "long stem" Kuryakyn's on several bikes w/o issue. THey look like the (high $$$) HD ones and I can see past my shoulders just fine. Really kills me that they have not made the stock stems longer yet. Guess that's another sale, so why fix it....

On the Ultra, the HD fariing mounted ones aren;t bad either. I had some of them on a old EGC.

The first thing I did on my road glide was replace the mirrors with Kuryakyn, the quality and price can't be beat. I was also have problems seeing over my shoulders.

I too like the long stem Kuryakyn mirrors. Great quality too! $100 get's you the pair.

Here is KIND OF a picture of them on my bike.

I like the fairing mounts on my ultra, I think it loses some of the geezer look too.
