Default What Mirrors with New Bars?

I put on a set of Krome Works Sweeper bars. love em.
Now I cant see out of my mirrors. And today it was Mr. Frogs Wild Ride in the DFW freeways
not being able to see behind me. Scary.
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
So what mirrors have you changed to?
I was thinking Kury Blind Spots, but do they have more rear&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;vision?
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
I guess the list is short though unless I use Handlebar mounted units[]

A nice set of black handlebar mirrors with soos' black anodized mirror extensions would look cool[8D]&nbsp\\; Then ya can take and do what I'm doing to fill the holes in the fairing with lights that work with your signals so folks on the side can see you are signaling.

I put these on my SG.&nbsp\\; I mounted these so the part of the bracket that fits onto the fairing is vertical instead of horizontal and it raised them a 1/2 inch or so.&nbsp\\; They fit in the existing holes the stock mirrors use.&nbsp\\; I have the 575 bars and I can see behind me on both sides and the round blind spot mirrors are great for seeing the lane directly next to you .&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;Some may not like the way they look but I do.

I have those exact bars and had the same viz problem (all I could see were my knuckles). I went with the Kury fairing-mount mirrors. They work great, and I think they look pretty good, too. Better than they do in the catalog.

They're supposed to be offering a kit soon with just the fairing mount, and you can order any of their mirror heads separately (if you prefer one of the Magnum large heads, for example). I'm thinking about doing that myself, if I can find some Magnum mirrors secondhand on fleabay.

I keep thinking, those Kury units would look good in black on my bike.
