Not a Deluxe? The seat and bars set up well for a vertically challenged rider.

Well Deluxe as well, I appreciate your input man, but I gotta say I am in love with Fatboy lo and Breakout at the same time...

Very happy Fat Boy Lo owner. The Breakout is a damn good looking bike though, it's about where you wanna go with it. The biggest difference I see is riding position. I sat on a Breakout and didn't care for the bars, but bars are probably the second most changed item after exhaust. Breakout has forward controls and the Lo has floorboards, I have highway pegs on mine and enjoy having the option of where to put my feet. Bottom line ride them both, and pick the one you feel most comfortable with and make it yours.

If I could afford it and have enough cash to get rid of all the damn chrome...I'd buy a breakout. It's your bike but that gets my vote.

Can't go wrong, however they will handle differently, so I would ride both and try to see which one you like best from the saddle.

Go to a dealership, sit on them, test ride them and decide for yourself. Simple.
