I don't think the Breakout is a good 2 up bike. People have complained about the stock rear seat. Also, if you look at the qr backrest, it seems like it is too far forward, which would cram the passenger and driver together.

Why would you want a longer headpipe on the front cylinder?

I wish I would have bought a Breakout but I didn't hear about them, until way after I had got my Blackline. They're so nice looking!

I don't get into the Softail section much. I went to New Posts and saw it! If you were expecting me, you could have told me it was here!

Umm, 11 months and 32k posts, I doubt there is any section of these forums you "don't get into much".
You should hang in this forum more often. We're much more fun than all those stuffy off topic and general chat guys.

So you meant that you want the ends of both pipes at the same spot? My pipes both end at the same point, so the front is longer, if that is what you mean?
