No problem. Feel free to browse through my albums to see other mods I've done to make the Breakout into a long distance capable bike. I kept all the "bulky" items quick disconnect so I can strip her down to bar hopper once we get to the destination. Works really well and I'm very happy with the bike.

Did you fit these pegs on your breakout?

Yes. You will need a set of Kuryakyn pegs for the cruise mounts to work though. I think you can use the stock pegs on the extension but it won't match any Kuryakyn pegs. The male adapter will not work unless you have Kuryakyn pegs, that is a sure thing. This should give you a better idea of how it goes together. What you see here is what comes in the #7887 package. (I see a few for sale on fleabay for a decent price. I don't think Kuryakyn makes these cruise mounts anymore.)

Thank you in advance.
Jessica I went with the Linbar 111-1 on my Breakout. It's a simple install - 3 bolts. I have a review on Dennis Kirk where I mention that it reduces your ground clearence a little due to how it attaches to the frame.

The bar that comes on the bike looks best.

What am I missing here? Harley wants 300 bucks to install an engine guard??? Mine goes on with 3 bolts and takes more time to dig out the sockets than to install
