Mirrors
#11
I've got those, they're much better then stock. Would highly recommend them.

If I ever replaced my mirrors I would go with those for sure.
I have the Kuryakyn Chrome Mirror Extenders. They get them UP and OUT too !!! They were on my 09 FLHRC, and I took them off that and put them on my 2012 FLHTC.

Lionsm13 - I'm thinking about the Wicked Fast Lanes, and am wondering about vibration/clarity. Are the FLs stable like stock or do they vibrate and give a blurred image? I have Performance Machine's FL mirrors but they vibrate so much that the image is usless, for me. Look great, but I need to be able to see.

XIB -- Thanks. I ride an 09 SG, and only got back into bikes 5k miles ago (or last June). I may have overstated the blur in the PM mirriors. My reference point is the OEM batwing mirrors, which are remarkably stable. On my bike there is no vibration w/ the OEM at any speed. The image w/ the PM is sufficient to ID an overtaking car but the vibration nixes any clarity. It wierds me out to have to figure out what's in the mirror, and I know other mirrors do much better.
I believe the PM vibration is due to 2 things: the metal mirror is v/ heavy and it's attached to a base via a skinny ~3/4" stem and small ball socket. Conversely, the OEM are very light plastic and attach via a large rubber ball socket.
I'm about to have my inner painted. If my paint guy is good with filling the mirror attachment holes (I let him decide these things) I'm switching to bar mounts. If not, I'll keep searching for a better design.
I'd like feedback from riders using Wicked One's products. They look sweet, are made here, and are bigger than OEM and PM.

I haven't used their mirrors, but I have bought a couple of other items from wickedimage, and they have been some of the best people to deal with, that I have come across. They have always been very helpful and friendly any time I called them.I would do business with them at anytime, and I think the above offer sounds like a great way to check the mirrors out, heck give 'em a try.
