Default Extended Forward Controls For Breakout

Anyone have these on their Breakout yet? I'm thinking of getting them…..But I'm not 100% sure. I'm 5'10" and i think I'd like to stretch my legs a little more. Any thoughts?

Maybe someone has found another option?

I beg your pardon for the silly question but they say they won't fit, will they?
I saw the chrome ones but they do not fit as far as HD says...

Maybe it's the wrong part number. I did see a Breakout at my local Harley dealer that had extended forwards……I shoulda sat on it…..Stupid me.

A part that actually fits a rocker!! Omg!!

If you use the triangle pattern 3 bolts it should fit. Or you could try the ness extensions. I was told boards wouldn't fit a rocker but I have them on mine, keep that kind of stuff in mind because a lot of times parts will actually fit on the step children of Softails!

Save yourself $269 and get the Ness Fwd Control extension brackets from Drag for $199. pop off your existing controls, install brackets and brake line that comes with it. gives you 2-3 inches. I have them on mine and I'm 6'6". Sure I could use some more room, but these help.

I just called my Buddy at the dealership and they were the Ness adapter. For $199, I might give those a try. Thanks

My buddy has a new breakout with the arlen ness 3inch ones and I tested the bike out and I'm 5 foot 10.5 and they were a great fit! I have them on my fxst and so worth the cash! The breakout with the ness kit is just a drop more fwd then my bike but either bike is great I'll never go back to stock

I just put the AN 3" extensions on my '07 Custom. I'm 5-10 and they fit me well. I suppose it all depends on where your height is at(your legs or upper torso). Plus if you feel comfortable with your legs out in front or not. I like my legs out straighter then some do.

Very easy install, other then getting pipes out of the way to get to brake pressure switch. Couple hours give/take.
