Nightster / Sporty Mirrors - Under Slung
Well with the intro of the 48 there's been a replaying of old style becoming new again. So yesterday I was riding the Nightster and was thinking up those under slung mirrors. Thinking... I wonder...
Sorry for junky phone pics... So here's stock, traditional placement Under slung I think it looks cool. Its different and will take some getting use to when riding. But still have great view behind me and maybe even a better view next to me in the blind spot zone. What ya think? |

I like the look of them below, but as a taller rider for me having them overhead might be more functional for me.

I love the way it looks, but as far as it being functional, they really become useless for me.
