Put them on a couple of hundred miles ago. I love them. They get the blind spot: like if a car is passing you and they are very close, you miss them in a conventional mirror but pick them up in these. They do take some getting used to.

I have been running them for several years now. Initially they take a little getting use. They are great mirrors I love them. When I upgraded to the Ultra that was the first mod I did.

I have them on my 2009 Ultra Classic. They are good but are shorter than stock. I find myself looking down farther than I did on the stock ones; but the coverage of the convex mirror is fantastic! You really get to see who's next to you or closing in quick.
Ride Safe and have a great Holiday!

I have them on my '09 Ultra and love them. They are clear and the convex part helps you see vehicles approaching you from several lanes on either side. I think they look good also.

These look nice, I've been using small round spot mirrors on the stock mirrors. That makes a big difference. I hate to take my eyes off the road to look behind me, just when I do someone wants to slam on the breaks

Saw these at the dealer the other day, they had them on a floor model bike .... really liked how they look. I think that's my next bike mod.

Took them off my Heritage Softail and put them on my Limited.

We like them, wife uses the fish eyes from the back seat every now and then to be sure i'm paying attention.
