so here's my plan, I'm going to run 2 separate threads, one will be used for before I do a mod, the other for after it. Basically one (this one) will be for me humming and hawing over my options of what I want to do, and the other will be a rather nice clean, minimal discussion build thread, that just kinda documents my build. This second one will also contain most of my pics

so the meat and potatoes:
2015 Harley Softail Breakout Radioactive Green.

Steak spice, butter, sour cream, cheese:
-Removed packing from stock exhaust, baffles reinstalled

Grocery list:
-big radius/xbow/other downswept exhaust system in black
-edge cut type aluminum accents
-full stage 1
-ape hangers of unknown size (10-16") (and of course fancy, expensive looking cabling for it)
-rear mudflap delete (can spec bike)
-JW speaker 8790 headlight

anyways, feel free to comment and discuss anything to do with my bike, and planned mods

so here she is, my bike the day I signed the paperwork:


and how she sits now (only difference visually, is how much rain it's seen)

 

Ok, so, this is thread number 2, this one here is planned on being my build thread, only things I'm going to be posting about really are the mods that I have done, i'm not going to really discuss things that i'm thinking about doing or such, that will all take place in this thread. Feel free to comment on stuff in this thread, but any real conversation I would prefer in that other thread.

This post, I will keep an update of mods done, and possibly a list of mods to come, aswell as the 2 pics of my bike in stock form, and the most current version of my bike below that. (visual mods only)

SO, here we go, bought the bike Tuesday March 8th, 2016, picked it up the next day (in the GOD DAMN RAIN!)
It's a 2015 Harley Davidson Softail Breakout in Radioactive Green.

the bike had 7151km (IIRC, I'll check the records and confirm eventually) when I bought it. It was an ex-demo model, and was bone stock, with a few nicks and scrapes in/on it.

the day I signed on the dotted line:


and that weekend, at an event for BACA, in the bloody rain again! (I had put about 275km on the bike, before I actually got to ride it on a nice day!


mods that have been completed:
Vance & Hines FP3 tuner
Vance & Hines Big Radius 2-2 black

next mod:
suspension upgrade

so far it's be been 6 weeks, and we are up to 8500km

nice start! IMO you really should consider one general build thread. it's much better that way especially for others participating.

 

Looks good!! and one thread would be better for people following...

 

And the mere existence of this thread will not keep people from posting in the other thread. To the contrary it will invite people to do exactly that

and why are the threads "unnamed"? Has it something to do with Harry Potter, or Voldemort respectively....oh sh**...I should have said "him who shall not be named"

 

^^ so would the Breakout be considered "My Precious" in this conversation? lol

 

Lol, that would be Gollum in "Lord of the rings"...different story, Dog

 

yeh sorry I thought keeping it within general "theme" would be close enough... ;p

how's that magazine-quality shot of your bike - Looks great!

 

Love that color

 

No worries! I just couldn't withstand to comment on that

Had a friend of mine do some pics with a professional DSLR camera last year...she is quite an ambitious amateur photographer.
