I need extended mirrors for my Ulysses. Over half the mirror with all my winter gear on is obscured. I checked J&P Cycle including metric and bought what appears to be the longest stem but only marginally better and one side appears to be left handed threads. Any ideas? Thanks. |

There was someone last month that posted on this about a mirror swap to a rectangular one that they picked up on ebay for about $10. Might try a search |

that may have been me - the new mirrors don't extend out any wider than the stock - they are just better looking (IMO) Don |

Thanks for the good ideas. The extenders look the best right now. |

I have ordered the extenders. When I get them installed I will post a report. XXL Darien with fleece doesn't leave much in the way of usuable mirrors. |

Biker Bob, What did you ever do about the extenders? I've decided that is what I need as well. Yours is the only reference I found about the issue from almost two years back. Thanks. |

I got a set from Twisted Throttle. Very straightforward and a BIG help. |

Got a part#? I looked at their site, the one set I found there, it clearly stated at the bottom of the page that "these will not fit Buell, Harley etc." Thanks. |

I just visited the Twisted Throttle web site and could not find what you quoted about Buells. Could you send a link? I'm using these: http://www.twistedthrottle.com/trade/productview/2 533/220/ |

"This item does NOT fit Buell and Harley-Davidson bikes with male 5/16" diameter, 18 TPI (fine thread) handlebar mirror mounts." That's not what you quoted. If you had, I would have pointed out that the Uly has coarse M-10 threads and they will work. I have asked them in the past to put the Uly on the list to save me these kinds of problems. |
