| I agree with most, I have a 2009 and recently bought a 2016... same bike same issues which I was aware of. Mounted a set of handlebar mirrors like others and find that they work perfectly.
I was thinking about putting additional speakers into the stock mirror cavities as there is a real need for more bass response from this system and hard to get from a 5.25 inch speaker. I am wondering if anyone has already done this and what size they were able to get in... and result of course.
If you see me selling stock mirror I guess my stereo just got better.  |

Lackawaxen PA United States | don't know what to say, I don't think I'd personally remove the mirrors .... did change the speakers ... kept them stock 5.25 put in Alpines w/foil dampening inside enclosure .... satisfied w/bass response .... if I really wanted they're 5.25 subs out there & could've mounted tweeters for upper/mid-range. don't think I'd like the look of external / handle bar mirrors ... if you check the post someone did install 6.5's in place of the stock 5.25 |

, IL United States | I've learned to get used to my mirrors for where they are. They're not equally adjusted though. What I can see behind me on one side is blocked in the other, however, leaning into curves or up/down hills allows decent rear viewing coverage from one or the other.
I also have aftermarket speakers I am now content with.
P.O. put hawg wired speakers in front then I put Polk Audio MM1 in the rear. Very nice. I have an amp in the mix also. |

Katy, TX United States | I added small round convex mirrors in the outer corner of the stock mirrors for better visibility.
