Glad to hear you made the purchase. Can't wait to see it around the base. The breakout is a killer looking bike.

+1

If that clear vinyl gives you trouble a little Goo Gone will do the trick in getting any residue left behind off the fender.

That was my first thought... Look at it this way, it'll kind of be like custom fitting the bike to the road... Been there, done that...

Those are sweet, thanks for looking out. Only thing that made me mad about ordering the Breakout was they wouldn't allow me to order the chrome wheels, only thing i could add was the alarm system, very weird.

You guys need to post some pics of your bikes around base. I was there in the early 90's and miss that place like crazy. Be sure you eat at the alt landstuhl a bunch before you leave. That place still haunts me.

During my last deployment I spent quite a bit of time TDY at RAB. I went into that Harley "shop" several times. They were such dicks that I never even bought a shirt n there.

They are nice if you buy a bike , But really they are just Brit's that don't ride that like everything you do to get you to buy a bike.

Ya they are dicks in there, I ended up at the harley dealer thats posted in Landstuhl Hospital instead. Those guys at RAB look at you like your not worth their time. When i first got here, i went in there to look at the fatboy lo and the guy was like are you interested in a harley and i said ya. He asked what my rank was and i said specialist, he then tells me, "Well you might want to look at a used motorcycle, i don't think you will be able to afford any brand new Harley"
The i told the retard, that i currently have a harley and i bought it brand new in 2011. I don't even walk close to that place, dumb Germans lol J/k
