No I haven't. I rode it to work this morning and seriously doubt I'll need it. This motor has some grunt, that's obvious already. I'm not one that worries about 2000 rpm tq. When leaving the line that's a non issue, and when rolling I prefer to stay in the correct gear. I could be wrong and a pulley swap is not off the table. Btw, had a guy already wanted to run his dyna against " That" softail.

Haha, same motor. You know his build?
Your cams are more for top end or low torque?
If the build was mostly for top end, then a rear and front pulley swap would make for takin off the line way quiker with out hurting top end

Could someone confirm if the Breakout CVO Pro Street seats will fit a normal 2017 Breakout?

Mid to top. I'm sure this motor will have every bit of low end my stage 2 103 had and more across the board. As far as the dyna guy, he is a young local club member who's mouth is bigger than his bank account. He lost interest fairly early in the conversation.

They will definitely fit! I almost went that route (hated sliding on the seat)... then picked up the Fred Kodlin seat by Mustang. Love it!!

$450 is pretty steep for a solo seat

But fine value compared to what you pay for what you get when you buy an HD accessory seat! Take a look at the underside of your HD seat, and then look at a quality aftermarket seat!

Jessica,
Here is what I chose for a solo seat. I had the same problem with sliding out the seat. This is a comfortable option for a $100 cheaper. Unless you add some of the air or gel cushion options. This is the one I went with and it feels great and keeps your seat planted when cracking the throttle hard.
