Has anyone used Arlen ness mirrors on there dog wondering if they will work
Yes, they work; if you have the universal mounting kit installed. Stock Arlen Ness mirrors did not just bolt directly on to Big Dog mounts on my 2004 Chopper.

BTW, while Arlen Ness mirrors are stylish the chrome is not very good (longevity/pitting). The mirror glass was good not distorted, but also had flaws on the silver backing. There might be better "copycats" out there... :2cents:

My bike had 1 on it when I got it and thankfully I was able to find a single left-hand to make the set. Rad II model.

I love it. Teardrop style and tiny size, yet shockingly effective rear view.

I absolutely love them.

PS - just remembered I had to buy one extra bolt to mount it, but Home Depot had it. That's all I had to do.

Looks very similar to the Arlen Ness Rad. Mine is the small Rad II. Rad I has same shape but it's a LOT bigger. I like the way the smaller ones look. Still surprised how well they see also, but likely because they're concave or convex - which ever is the one that makes things "appear smaller then they are" to give a wider angle view.
