Default fairing mount mirrors

Anyone having the fairing mount mirrors, do they vibrate like crazy and can you see better than with the stockers? A guy came in the other day and was looking to order the new fairing mount mirrors from Performance Machine that he had seen in Myrtle Beach, but they are expensive but are said to not vibrate. I am still looking for which way to go []

I have the H-D fairing mounted mirrors on my 07 Ultra and I love mine. They dont vibrate any at all. I had my dealer install mine when I bought my bike, because I really didnt want to screw up my fairing while drilling the mounting holes, even though the install seems pretty straight forward and does comes with a template.

I just installed mine and I think they're great. It took some getting used to, but I'm glad I made the switch.

in installed them but after awhile, especially when riding in a group, was continually cranking my head to see behind me to see the other riders. definate blind shot. went back and added some larger mirrors where the old stockers were at. much better now. would i add the fairing mirrors again, probably not but once you drill the fairing and install you're kinda stuck with them.

Agree they look much better. Functionally my kurakyn mirrors gave better overall visibility without seeing my arms. For me I'd take looks over function and would do again.

I have them on my EG Classic and the wife has them on her SG. I think I get just about as much view as factory mirrors.

I have them on my UC. I love um. They did take a few rides to get them tweaked in for the best visibility. On my bike the vibrate less than the original handlebar mounted ones. Field of view is good.

In my past rides, the first thing I do is rip off those square tv set sized factory mirrors. I was pleasantly suprised the mirrors on my 07 FLHT look kinda nice. Im keeping them stock.
