Will post some update pics of mine when my new handlebars arrive and get installed.
Yes, keep us or me, posted on the handlebars. If i was to change anything, it would be the bars. Im happy with the stock bars, it would be more of a look thing.

I've made a few changes to my bike this year: new handlebars, mid controls and I had a few parts powder coated black. With these new bars and mids I finally feel like the bike really fits me. I'm 5' 8", 32" inseam.

Still a bit of a work in progress, very difficult to find a tall chopper style sissy bar that ships to Australia for a reasonable price.

Okay, I've done a bit of looking around and I have yet to find a reasonable way to get myself a few inches more to stretch out on my 24 Breakout. I looked at the kit that Harley moves the forward controls forward a few inches, but the kit cost $600, but doesn't work with engine guard, which I have on my Breakout. I've looked at getting an extended reach seat, similar to what I have on my 21 RKS, but it seems that no one makes one for newer Breakouts! So, I'm considering have my stock seat re-worked to move me back a couple of inches.
So for all you 6'+ Breakout riders, what have to done to give yourself a bit of stretch out room on your Breakout? Or are you just sucking it up and stopping every so often to unbend? Thanks for any suggestions!
