Default Blacked-out Breakout?

Any Breakout owners have any plans of adding some Night Train style to their bikes?

I'm hoping someone has, or will. I think it'd look badass!

I haven't gotten one yet but looking hard. And the plan will be to black most of it out.

THat back fender is AWESOME!! (but its nearly 1500 bucks BEFORE paint!!!) LOL


I am doing the contrast thing on mine because it would be just too expensive for me to black out the entire bike by the time you did the entire front end, the primary, all the controls, etc...so I am doing the half and half thing...already did mirrors, grips, levers, pegs, AC, and will powdercoat the fender struts and do something about the rear signals at some point. Wish I would have gone for the black exhaust since I already invested 700 in the chrome one I have now!!

That is basically the look I have been thinking about. But also thinking about wrap-around front fender and maybe a smaller fuel tank.

But after doing all that I am not sure if I should even get a Break-out or jsut build from the groudn up.

Not bad, but they should have done the motor also. Making the rocker boxes, cam cover and transmission cover black would have given the bike a whole new attitude.

That Fatboy Vegas Cut is one of the sickest Fatboys I've ever seen...especially the swingarm.

I wish I could afford to have one to black out...but I doubt I'd do that.
