Which mirrors?

[Constantinos]

I am on the lookout to find the best looking but functional mirrors for the max. Anyone have any recommendations?

Bar ends IMHO. The visibility is very good. I have the fold able that tuck in nice when parked. I like the look too. But again, that's me.

+1 , I guess it's a matter of personal taste but the "puppy dog ear" style doesn't do it for me, the bar end mirrors totally transform the look plus they are functional.

I'm looking for some also. Can you add some links to ones you like ?

After trying a few different types of mirrors, I ended up with stock GenII mirrors.

I like them a lot, see past your shoulders and little vibration issues.

I've got a few different ones we sell. The larger mirrors tend to not have as nice a look. The bar ends are functional for sure but not a look I like at all.

I had the bar ends but I split traffic a lot, and very closely at that. So went back to the traditional style in post 4 above. Functional and look fine.

I had bar end mirrors but they were not so good for visibility. Do add some links or photos for different options!

I run a set of barracuda mirrors designed for ducati, and I think they look pretty sharp on the Max.

Definitely way better than the kidney shaped stock mirrors, it goes with the look I'm going for, might not be everyone's cup of tea though.

These were the ones I had on my bike....go over 100 km/h and the darn things were flapping all over the place...

These lower profile stock V-Star mirrors should work well:

Took off my bar end mirrors a few weeks ago ( they are just like rustys). Live with the stockers for a few weeks untill I realized I really didn't like the looks ( both on and off the bike). Now Ive put the bar ends on again.
As to them loosening----- A few punch marks with a sharp punch on the ball and socket joint and problem solved.
