can anyone reccommend a set of long stem mirrors that actually work? i had two sets of short ones and they gave me a great view of my shoulders and the long stems i have now vibrate so bad i see circles spinning when i look back at headlights...if that isnt bad enough, one vibrates so bad, i can hear the racket at speed....would be nice to have some clue as to whats behind me ..bar ends arent what i m looking for...thanks....keith

I run the short mirrors and I've bent them a bit more and sealed the mirror to the back. I can see well and almost no vibration.

I masked off the mirror with tape and the outer edge of the back and fill the gap with [ I used urethane sealed ] a silicone sealer. Make sure the mirrors are adjusted and seal the edge. Let it dry real good and then spray a little black paint before unmask it.
