Are the VTX rectangular mirrors the same size as the Valkyrie? Are they interchangeable?

The oval shaped mirror used on some VTX's and other metrics also works well... I actually like it a lot better than the stock rectangular mirrors. Shape fits much better with the curves of the Valk, especially with the IS fairing. Very good vision as well

I have those too... though mine may be Yamaha (came with the bike).  What I really like that the PO did was turn the short stems around so they go almost straight up.  The amount of adjustability in the mirror itself still allows them to aim back perfectly.  Mirrors placed closer to your eyes (taller) are easier to use.  I like the shape and looks better than the rectangles too.

Thanks for the replies. I have the VTX oval mirrors and they do look better. A friend of mine needs the rectangular one.
