As much as I would like to take credit for all of that, it is a stone stock bike from the CVO factory.

I put a Windvest on my Breakout. It looked great, but,... the way they formed the mount made it impossible to adjust the height to where I wanted it. I even tried shimming it with spacers. If they made the angle where it connects to the shield adjustable it would have been just right, but they use such a sharp angle that it handicaps an otherwise great product. I tried shimming it up, and up, and up, but it still was too low. Here's a picture of the extreme shimming I tried to get it correct. In the end, I sent it back and got an HD sport shield.
