+1 on the mirror extenders. Worked great on my Meanie, just as effective on the Vaquero.

Another vote for the extenders. Work perfect.

At the risk of being just another "me too!" I can heartily recommend the mirror extenders. i put them on my Voyager and they made a huge difference in my field of view.

Just like everyone else here, 3 years with them on my 2012 Voyager. Big improvement. You may notice a bit of mirror vibration at certain speeds/RPM, but would not hesitate to buy them again.

I did something different and took some mirrors from a 900 Vulcan and put them on my 2011 Voyager. The stems are longer and I can see behind me just fine.

My wife complained about not being able to see with her stock mirrors so I got her a pair of "Emgo Universal "Big One" Motorcycle Mirrors". They are definitely bigger and provide a much larger field of view if you dont mind the "Dumbo" look of them. I added extenders to my stock mirrors and see way better. Bet both combined would be the bomb.

would love to see a picture with the extenders.
Also, I went to the amazon site and there are quite a few to decide from. Any suggestions to which one to go with? I see a Price difference between some of them. Thoughts on more expensive vs the cheaper ones? |

Ask and you shall receive. Measured them also. Raises stem attach point 1.5 inches and takes them outward 2 inches. Note the trunk, I have visibility behind it now. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I like the air deflectors you made for the grips. Do they make a big difference? I ride year round and some nights coming home from work, these may be nice to have.
