Default Breakout Chopper

Saw this Breakout on Facebook. I think it looks good. Bolt on. 14 degree rake the +7 forks. Says from Chopper Kit USA.

I like the rake, maybe a little shorter extension on the forks. But thats just my 2 cents

I like it too, maybe just a little long, but looks good!

The rake and fork length really go hand in hand...if it had shorter forks, it would need less rake, or the bike would sit low in the front.

Looked them up and says kits come 3, 5, 7 and 9 inch forks and 9, 14 and 18 degree rake. I would think if you went 3" over you wouldn't need the rake. Maybe 5" would look better at that rake.

I'd like to see the 5" extended forks with a 9 degree rake....think'n that might look, and sit real nice!!

Wonder if the rake kit would work on the Prostreet front end also.

I know the tubes wouldn't.
But lowering the rear without taking the front leaves the bike *** low

Way to much rake for me . Cut that back 15 or 20% and repost a new picture.

The people who don't like this are the same people who put ape hangers and windshields on bikes.
