I do agree with them that the console on the Breakout is pretty shitty. Mine doesnt conform with the tank at all and is coming up in the front. Other than that I cant go anywhere on my Breakout without getting a compliment. I've never heard anybody say damn thats a nice Raider lol!!! Hell I dont think I've ever even seen one out riding around

A guy in my chapter has a Raider. They are nice bikes as well. We have raced a few times from a 20mph roll up to 100mph and we are dead even. He weighs 100lbs more than me and has no filter or exhaust. Be careful, with a light enough rider them Raiders just might get a close to stock Breakout in a drag race.

Harley vs Anything Else = Camaro vs Corolla.
Sure, the Corolla is reliable, but it's still a freakin' Corolla.....
...and I have no idea what those dudes are talking about with the console fitment. Mine was fine right up until I swapped it out.... a coupla' days after I rode it home, lol.
Does anyone have ANY problem with the finish on their frame/tins? Mine's fine...haven't found a single glitch.
Speed? I don't follow NHRA drag bike stuff, but don't Harley's & Buells dominate? I didn't get a Harley because they're quick or canyon carvers, but it sure seems like there is way more support for Harely owners who wanna get down the road a little quicker then there is for any other make.
I also get thumbs up/compliments when I'm out on the bike. The other day some broad driving Range Rover was trying to get a few pics - almost hit me, she was getting so close

Agree on the attention this bike gets. I don't have a long history of motorcycle ownership, but I've owned 3, including 1 other Harley. Nearly every time I''m out on the Breakout, I get stopped, thumbs up, or just window down / yelling / complimented.
It definitely gets a ton of attention. Now that I got the bars installed, it rides as nice as it looks!
