That's one thing about my Breakout that I liked...very little to mod, besides a Stage 1. I added a sissy bar and grips.

If I had the money, I'd do something about the damn 4' wide handlebars...I Know...they're not really 4' wide. It kills my shoulders.

Why? Are they to narrow I am thinking about replacing them with wider ones...

"The everything breakout thread" has loads of great info in it if you haven't checked already. Really good looking bike btw, if I was going to spend 20k on a bike that would be the one, color and all (even though I do love the much hated flake paint option).

I would like to change my bars for something else but to be honest the stock drag bars are part of the whole breakout mean look that make it different to other HD's. No offence but the CVO's high bars and fatboy style panel behind the headlamp detract from that slammed sleek look of the Dragster design!!

Congrats and welcome to the Breakout family. Definitely check out all the Breakout threads. There is a ton of information on here to keep you busy for quite sometime. I do like the color of your bike. Have fun.

I've already been digging through the "everything breakout thread". Boy there's a ton of info in there. It's always helpful having guys that have already done the trial and error and are nice enough to share the info with everybody. Just bumped the blackline tank console mod up my list after seeing those installed pics. Way better looking.

Hey guys. Quick question for you. All my parts are in transit to my house. I was in the garage looking the bike over and realized that the rear turn signal housing has a bracket behind it that holds the tag holder. I'm removing that holder to relocate to my axle but what do I do to re attach the turn signal housing so it sticks out as far as the other side? A new housing I assume. If so, does anybody have a part number for it.

Or if you like them nearer to the fender you can buy another bracket like the left one and install it on the right. Rear turn signals look better slightly shorter...
Will look for p.n. of both options if you're interested.

Grats on the new BO. Appearance-wise, those are one of my favorite HDs in recent years!
