If your bike sits in you lounge room as a show piece then forward controls look great, but if you do many long trips like I do than comfort is much more important than aggressive looks, and I must say I actually prefer the look of the black floorboards to forward controls. Is my opinion.

Really, if the people want buy a comfortable harley davidson, dont buy a breakout, buy a HD touring with windshields and other comfort components. I think...

Thing is I love the look of the breakout with the floorboards and I am comfortable on it now, don't like windscreens or bags, like the open look. Just saying..

The people that say, "If you want a bike that does __________ you should have bought _________.",seriously crack me up.
Tell you what, when you pay my payment, you can tell me what bike to ride. Until that day comes I am going to build and ride my bike how I see fit.
I can tell you this, a Breakout with floorboards looks better than a Road King with a 250 back tire.

Install of the brackets was very easy. As long as you have the few tools needed and a way to support the bike while you change the kickstand side the rest is simple. Thanks to everyone who has provided information about floorboards on this forum and especially to 24v and xlr8it for their input in this thread.

Welcome to a Internet forum, if the people dont want hear goods and bads things about his transformatios/mods in the bike, a forum is not a good place to him.
Who open a thread about his bike, he must accept all type of opinions.
