I am not sure that the threads of the HD mirrors will match that of the Vision. I believe the mirrors need to be ones designed for metric bikes.

Central Illinois | The thread pitch matching adapters are your solution to having tons of mirrors to select from. |

Metro-Detroit Michigan | I found a pair of stick on mirrors for $4.00 at Autozone with the same shape of my mirrors. By placing these stick on mirrors on the stock mirrors on the upper outsize corners, I have a perfect view of that which is behind me. Moreover, the staff at the dealership informed that everyone walking in the service area noticed the mirrors and requested that I be questioned regarding the place of purchase and cost so that they may copy what I had done for themselves. |

Peru, IN | The threaded holes are 10mm with a standard metric bike thread. Any mirrors meant for a metric bike (other than a few of the backwards threaded Yamahas) will screw right in to the clutch/brake reservoirs. There are 1000s of different mirror options for metrics. |

Manchester, CT | Fellow Riders...I've experimented with a few configurations...the best I have found is
Victory mirror left and right turned in, each view focused on the middle of the trunk out - gives you cars directly behind you. lane parallel to you and slightly into the 2nd lane over. Rectangular convex mirror mounted to the upper right corner facing out - full peripheral vision including blind spot coverage and right as vehicle next to you crosses the blind spot/along side of you as it enters into your peripheral vision. Mounted mirrors using the OEM mount points. Angled so it slightly overlaps the OEM mirrors. This gives you the big picture view directly parallel to you and full view back minus directly behind you (someone tailgaiting). Granted the additional mirrors may be ergonomically slightly impacted but the safety for me trumps everything else 
I really can't capture the configuration as ever rider's height, riding position etc will vary.
Hope this helps. |

| I had the 91-852 chrome or 91-853 black from Highway Hawk on my 2010 Vision. Nice convex view and low profile so they don't stick way up. Must have the clutch and brake controls with the threaded holes to mount them. Just pull the plastic plugs. |
