^Right! Like the worst oh ****, here we go again feeling that one is... The website URL is comical also....
But hey, money back, you can't go wrong... You might even spot the PIG before he lights you up, just before so you have a chance to act worse than you already did and give him a reason to pull you over if he doesn't already... *******, I highsided riding like an *** cause i saw a cop... put a clutch lever through my leg that time.... oh well... besides the point i suppose...

I'm pretty certain that they will work just fine on a V-twin in terms of vibration... At least as long as he used a rubber grommet or something to lock it with "drag" at the end of the tightening...

I could live with everything but the price, not knowing if there's a vibe or stability problem (don't want to have to keep readjusting) If you go on these please post.
I am thinking of buying a cheap used set of stock mirrors for my S-hawk to perform "surgical experiments in the name of science" I want to see if I can cut the stalk, and insert some form of decent looking tubing to make them stick out further.

Save yourself the headache... The stalks are made by some crappy pot-metal on the OEM mirrors, and it's not really userfriendly to work with... I suggest you get either a pair of extension blocks or adapt some other mirrors... (search the forums & eBay for a lot of info, including a detailed description of how someone did extend their mirrors and why it's a PITA)
