Can anyone recommend some replacement rear view mirrors that work? Took my first ride yesterday and could only see my arms with the stock mirrors.

I have H-D's Tribal mirrors on my bike now. The mirror is a little wider than the factory mirror, so they are a step in the right direction. But they are not ideal imho.

I may try a set of bar-end mirrors next...not sure how that'll look though.

If that doesn't work out I'll go back to the factory mirrors and modify the stalks and then paint 'em black.

Nothing subtle about that wheel but it looks good.

I run the stock mirrors off of a dyna Fat Bob, they look exactly the same (but black) and are one inch wider and just a bit taller. Good cheep option if you don't mind the OEM style.

Lol, she has been very supportive. In fact, I just ordered the sportser sprocket and PV2 tuner today. Another $600 spent
Cant wait to load one of LA Dogs tunes once I get the sprocket on.

Just ordered it today. The sprocket with bolts and washers cane to 170. From what everyone says, it moves the rpm range up about 300 in every gear so i dont see why it wouldnt still be good on trips.

What are the LEDs you're running? Do they both have high low beams?

Was re-reading the article about the H4 lights trying to find out what I'm going to place in my new bucket.

https://www.hdforums.com/forum/softa...is-a-joke.html

Wanted to go with a daymaker style from jw speaker, but they say they don't offer a motorcycle light in a 5.75".

Was contemplating the Oracle headlight with the H4 insert or the Oracle LED.

I was using the Harley 5 3/4" led before I went to the Fatbob light. It had high and low. Now I run auxiliary lights in a Fatbob housing, with no high beam.
