Default Awesome

After 2500km on my BO since 3 weeks I have to give up this statement:

Best bike so far I ever owned.
If you able to adjust your driving style on / to the bike and get used to drive a 260 Metzler ME888 ultra marathon tire, I am every time justified when I drive this awesome peace of machine.

All thumbs up

After hour riding with my B/O 114

Almost done with mods until 128CI upgrade. The only things left are the license plate relocation and wheels.

Does anyone know if a sissy bar/backrest from a Twin Cam Breakout will fit a M8 Breakout? The shop say it won't (as they would) but it looks like it will unless the mounting hardware is slightly different.

@PRidd27
They are Custom Dynamics ProBeam LED turn signals for the front and rear. I'm not entirely sure the specific model, as they were purchased and installed last July 2018..

Anybody found a reasonably priced headlight cowl for fxbr yet? Thunderbike has an AWESOME chrome one, but I refuse to pay $400 for it! Some company needs to produce reasonably priced breakout parts and put these kind of companies out of bizz!
Thieves?

What brackets did you use to relocate your turn signals 49mm? Did you have to pull the wires down through the handlebars?
Thank you,
Brian
