does anyone know any aftermarket mirrors that have stalks and can replace the factory ones for a weight savings and provide less drag but still look good on a XB12R? Is it even worth it think along these lines or are the stock ones about the best you can get overall?
 
One gent around here actually removed all the rubber, sanded, and painted the stock ones. Probably the best look stalks I've seen. I go with the bar end though...no complaints from me.
 
I see just fine in mine... They don't have my elbows or shoulders obscuring a majority of the view like most of the stock mirrors I've had on my past bikes do... The only thing you'll need to get used to is looking in a different location to get your eyes on the mirror...

It takes some getting used to because they are slightly alien at first... But they function great...
