The Aprilia Tuono mirrors are a good replacement. I have them on mine and l like them. They look way better than the stockers. American Sport Bike sells them for about the same price as an Aprilia dealer would. Just remove the old ones and install the Aprilia bits right in. Simple.

Trevor, about 10 months ago I asked the exact same question. The stock mirrors gave me a great view of my elbows. I did not want bar ends. Well, almost everybody recommended Napolean bar end mirrors. Against my better judgement, I ordered them from American Sport Bike.
They offer a great view, no shake, & contrary to what I thought would happen, they never seem to be in the way.
("against my better judgement" about bar-ends, not Amer. Sport Bike, ABS is great to deal with.)
