It's so expensive 'cause it's not just slip-ons. Those J&Hs come with a 'sound management system' to comply with European noise emission regulations...It actually is a very clever concept but not cheap at all...my KessTech exhaust uses a very similar technique.

Headlights
Has anyone tried a 7" headlight on their Breakout? I'm wondering how it'd look....? I got to this question by mistake...kinda...
I want to clean up the bars a little. Getting rid of the HD signals is the obvious, simple thing to try first, but I like the idea of having some kind of front signals. To get there, I bought a 5 3/4 LED lamp w/ built in signals from Primo.
I also dislike the black HD headlight bucket, so I bought a chromed aluminum 5 3/4 Adjure bucket off some Amazon seller. I've decided that I don't really care for the Adjure bucket.
A chrome version of the black factory HD bucket would be GTG.
So, before I scour the intarwebnets for a chrome 5 3/4 bucket, I'm wondering if anyone has switched to a 7" headlamp. If so, post some pics!

All, my last post in this thread with my current Breakout...
My Breakout has gone to a new home after I received a ridiculously good offer for it and I've decided to start a whole new project with a Road Glide that I'm going to take a few months off work and ride around the US on.
It's been a pleasure on the Softail forum and a big call out to all those that helped me along the way building my bike.
Stay safe and no doubt I will be back on a Softail soon enough.
Cheers.

Found the pics of a BO with a 7' headlight on the net. Matter of taste but I find it a little "bulky" for the BO profile. I'd keep the stock 5 3/4 headlight either adding a chromed shell (like CVO one) or swapping with a billet chromed alu shell, in both cases adding LED light. Other solution might be a Thunderbike headlight if you like the design.
Regarding blinkers just ordered a few days ago MBW Wrap Around LED Turn Signals to install just below the upper triple tree. If you wish to clean up a bit the handlebars these might be a good solution.
