Default Help, CVO breakout toasting my inner thigh

Just picked up a 2016 CVO Breakout over the weekend. Rode for a couple hours holding my leg away and still had an actual burn on my inner right thigh from the top of the engine. Had same problem of my fat boy and got the mid frame air deflector. Problem is that I can't find one that fits this bike. I can't be the first to have this problem. Please anyone who has any fix would be great.

Not certain, but I think Captain Itch makes a crotch cooler for you...

NO disrespect, but those mid frame heat deflectors will help.

But the real problem is that the 110" motors come from the factory really, really lean.

Best thing is to get a Turner, my choice in order would be TTS Mastertune, or PowerVision. Especially if you want a Turner that will GROW with your bike, if you decide to go bigger in the motor department.

I experienced similar heat problems on my 2016 Fatboy S. I put on a Captain Itch crotch cooler and it did help mitigate the heat problem some. The cooler is made of heavy leather. It does not eliminate felt heat but I definitely have been more comfortable since I put it on.

I have a tune and synthetic oil as well but the 110 puts out a lot of heat especially sitting it heavy traffic.

HD doesn't make a mid frame air deflector that fits that's the problem. Haven't been able to find one from any of the usual brands that fits. It has been tuned. Not sure with what. I picked it up preowned with 1800 miles. Maybe Captain itch but was hoping for something more ridged than leather

The Captain Itch leather is pretty thick and doesn't move/flex at all.

Agreed, if the heat is that bad,,, you have other problems and you should've found out what & how your Bike was tuned...
