I have decided to go with the 10" monkey bars. In doing this will it make my fairing mirrors useless? If so Ill add mirrors to the bars I guess, but is there a way to do away with the fairing mirrors if that is the decision?

Thanks guys for the help
 
Welcome to the forum. Most bar changes will render those fairing mirrors useless. Once you have the bars on you'll have a better idea.
If you need to remove them just take off the outer fairing and remove the nut that holds them on. Then you can plug the hole with something.
There are some posts here that show what some of the guys used to plug the holes with.
 
10" bars will definitely make mirrors useless as bars will be in the way.....depending on your budget there are many after market mirrors to choose from.....just do your homework so you won't go through hardship like some of us have trying out different mirrors...I went through 3 mirrors before settling for HD Edgecut mirrors.

Has anyone found a good(for visibility) mirror to mount upside down "within" the fairing?
 
There is a spacer that lowers the factory fairing mirror so that you can use it with the taller bars.

Thanks slingshot383! Is this spacer a HD part or aftermarket? Do you have any other details or experience with it's effect?
