I'm still trying to figure out how *much* different are the keystone vs the stock Iron bar.

The bar seems higher than stock iron bar but the part part where the grips are seems LOWER.

Anyone can clarify this? BMCsteve?

Its about 4 inches higher (at the grips) and 4 inches narrower

I find them more comfortable and stable

I don't have Keystones but I do have drag bars with 6 inch risers and I can see better with the mirrors flipped BUT I don't like looking down on the highway. I did some searching and got these cheap ebay mirrors and even though they are smaller I can see more than just my shoulder.

Maybe these would work:
