Default Inverted forks on a Breakout???

Has this ever been done. I know Harley used to sell a set of black anodized Marzocchi inverted forks, but I have not seen them in a while on then the website. I know they have a set for the night train, but have never seen them on a breakout or rocker.

you probably will not be able to re-use the stock braking system and fender, but as long as you can find a set with the proper length and that fits the triple trees, you should be good to go.
The are after market companies that specialize in HD front forks out there. Talking with them, might get you closer to what you're lookin for.

Default Inverted on a Rocker

Someone way back did a whole build page on their blacked out Rocker C and put the HD Marzo inverted front end on it. Can't find the thread, but here is a link to a pic.

Would love to see a breakout with a pair on. Would make that bike perfect IMO.

Those wheels are badass......I was looking at a set of gold wheels and posted that. Sorry for the confusion. I am just not fond of gold wheels on a Harley. And also sorry for the confusion as when I posted that last post I was confused as I referenced the wrong pic: http://www.bikernet.com/pages/Storz_...0_Upgrade.aspx

Those forks are sick though in that pic I posted, just the wheels kind of kills it in my opinion. Anytime I see an upgraded inverted fork front end on a harley I drool though, regardless of the color.

PM performance is top notch stuff.
