I've had my Breakout for 3 months now. I love the bike. The Breakout isn't for everybody. But it's the type of bike I like. I've put 1.5" risor extensions, black grips, black mirror extensions, Vance & Hines V02 air cleaner, Big Radius pipes and Vance & Hines FP3 tuner. I have rear seat and detachable back rest with pad that I got off of a CVO Breakout on Ebay for when the wife rides with me.
I want to get some type of 3" extended foot controls (sorta of a big guy, 6' 2" 250 with long legs).Then the next few things will be pegs for the front and rear, black mirrors and axle covers.
Great looking bike! Any chance you found a forward control extension that worked. I'm 6'3", I just got a 2016 Breakout and hoping there are some options out there.
nice Breakout- share the info on your headlight bag
You might want to think about revising the driver seat at a local upholstery shop- that seat is so thick it's sort of shoving you up and forward. you could thin it down with better foam and you'll move down / back about 2", and it will still be comfy. Not only that you won't slide off the back of it without the passenger pillion on.
