Hi over here,,,, I had been like a STUPID these last days thinking what should I do.
I had been dreaming for a Crossbones since 2010..... Back than I had a Steet Bob.......
Now I have the option for a very nice Crossbones but at the same time I really LOVE the Look of the Breakout and could not take a decision cause any bike I choose I am sure that I will regret of not buying the other.

So what should I do???? Both bikes have a story of there own and one is a really OLd School look while the other is Completely 70's Drag Bike kind of

Cannot decide..........

I've seen folk on here do some really righteous looking things with the Breakout...With that being said I would never buy one. I vote for the Bones...all the way.

You choose: Can never go wrong with retro or old school. When you go to sell or trade it it will hurt you less.

Get what you want. Would you ask someone to pick out the house you buy or the state you live in... No. So pick what you want. Weigh the pros and cons and pull the trigger yourself. You'll regret it more if someone else chooses for you.. just my 2 cents. But hurry up and choose so we can see some pics!

Try to picture what the bike can become that suits you as most people never leave them stock and changes are inevitable. They are totally different bikes and one has to appeal to you more than the other. Dont jump on the breakout bandwagon just because Harley hasnt made any decent softails since the nighttrain was discontinued.
