Love that white breakout. I initially wanted one but they didn't have one.

Bike is together. Not able to go pick it up until my weekend because I work long days.

The very first Breakout I saw in person was this color, when I sat on it I knew I had to have one. Went back to the same dealership 2 days later and it was gone...Sold they said. Kinda let down I was, I've yet to walk in a dealership and they have one like this, although they said they could find one probably. Its a great color and I like my vivid black but often wished I'd had them find me one like this. The bike looks great.

Thanks for the compliments fellas. I fell in love with the white as soon as I saw it. I got the only one my dealer ever had in stock. I've never seen another white one in person or at another dealer. I've only seen maybe 3 other people on here that have one. The black looks great but I like to be a little different.

I too have only seen one in person myself, wanted it, just didn't get to it in time. Sharp bike.

Just having a Breakout already sets you apart- I agree the white is very nice and not an often seen color.

Did somebody say something earlier about LAF ground pounders?





Finally got around to posting pics of my bike. Just got done doing the Bkackline tank dash mod. Second best thing I've done to improve the looks of this bike. Thanks you guys for doing all of the dirty work.

Not so good. I have the HD super tuner. I loaded a standard map for a stage one kit. It runs fine but there's a lot of deceleration pop. I need to run the auto tune feature. The stuff you've been doing with your tune interests me. I guess I'll have to do some reading up on it then start playing around with my own tune.
