Default HD Willie G Mirrors... Cant see the Road

Hey Guys,

I bought a set of the tear drop styled Willie G mirrors to replace my stock mirrors on an '08 Street Bob. But, I cant seem to adjust the left side enough to see the road directly behind me (8-15 feet back). Anyone else have this problem? If so, how did you fix? (lemme guess you ditched 'em)

Rotate the mirror stem out, then adjust the mirror back. Might have to repeat this a few times. I've had this problem with my mirrors a few times. If this doesn't work, the stems on the mirrors may be shorter than the originals.

I have the same issue with my stock mirrors. It's an adjustment issue but I'm too freekin lazy to deal with it.

I've never had problem with mine but I spend most of my time looking forward.

Ok guys. I'll try moving the stems out a bit tomorrow. I'll let you know who it works out.
