I'm wanting to put a springer front end on my Breakout. Has anyone done this? I need some input on where to find all the parts. I'd really like something that would fit with little or no modification.
i know my original post was from 2017 but i’m Still interested in doing this. I was somewhat surprised that no one responded with recommendations on parts, etc.
Surely i’m Not the only one who has any interest in doing this mod.
I'm interested in getting a custom made classic inline style shorter springer fork swapped into my 2007 Springer Classic from this outfit in the UK https://www.dragonsoulcustom.co.uk
I prefer the classic styling over the modern one, but I want to get dual front disc brakes for a 18" wheel. I also want to hide these Bike Station Shock Absorbers inside the springs to keep the classic look but have more modern performance: https://www.wwag.com/cgi-bin/WebObje...e=DetailSearch
I hope this info might be helpful for you too!
Ok, Old post, I’m putting a Springer on my Breakout 114
So, I bought a Softail with a Chrome FX Springer. I put a wide glide on that Softail, and stole the FX Springer.
I bought the DeRake Kit, and changed out the stem then, I had the Chrome Rear Leg, Powdercoated Black.
the 2018 tank is too narrow for me, found a 2018 Fatboy 5 Gal tank, and the breakout Fuel Pump goes right in.
Found a 2009 CVO Springer rear fender.
Found all the parts for a Hydraulic Clutch.
Found a 4 piston Caliper that will fit the FX Springer.
goal for this build: Modern 2009 CVO Springer
thats a Breakout 114 at heart.
FX Springer, with the Vulcan Raked Stem Kit. This will be a Nice Rake,... Noticeable, just short of WOW. Now, getting a 1” Axel Wheel, into a ¾” Axel,.... and NO, the Bearing Adaptors didn’t just go right together. Took a Bit of Fitting,....

i used bearing reducers and they worked fine. You will need to go 25mm to 3/4”. I believe I made that mistake and bought 1” at first. Hardest part for me was keeping the abs sensor and sorting out new spacers.
