I just got 12" Yaffe Bagger Bars installed and just flipped the mirrors upside down.

That's what I was going for but something with the angle of the dangle isn't giving me the visibility.

Just how big are these boobies? I'm thinking its not a harley problem rather a Victoria secretes soulition but without pictures, there's no way to actually understand the size of this problem.

It is all about the angle. If I cannot see out of the mirror I take my arm down and able to see. Not bad for keeping the same mirrors and not spending money on new ones right now. Have you checked out small oval arlen ness mirrors on top of the bars? I had them on my last SG with 12" Yaffe's.

If you are willing to take a chance and only need a small amount of extra adjustment, you might try gently bending the mirror stems (which may or may not split the chrome finish) in a vice. Can always revert back to the clean look of fairing mounted mirrors.

I had to get new mirrors since I put new bars on. The new 10" chubby bars go directly in front of them

Check out the Arlen Ness mini ovals. I had them on my last SG they looked pretty cool too.

In order to give an educated response, I will first need to have a look at the offending *****.
