I have the Rivera LED headlamp with built in LED signals ... meh ... it's better than the POS light H-D builds the bike with.
It does work perfectly though - no condensation or flickering. It fit the H-D bucket, although I switched to a chrome version from Custom Chrome.

I have been inspired!
I have had my Breakout now for around 18 months and it is time for a change. I have been watching all of you "personalise" your rides and it has inspired me to have a go. Having never worked on a Harley before I was a little nervous, but downloaded a manual and went for it. I have attached a before pic, and a few pics from last night when pulling it apart.
My apologies to all you "chrome boys" out there, but I like the look of the darker bikes these days. New headlight, dash, upper front fork covers and plenty of powder coating should make it look a little different. And hopefully a set of shotguns being shipped to Australia shortly.
I will post a pic when all back together, might be a few weeks.
Cheers for all the good info,
Harty.

I love the chrome, but the dark Breakout or contrast Breakout both look good.

Hydraulic clutch conversion
I finished the conversion today and I can confirm that the FXSB clutch works with the CVO hydro actuator. No clutch replacement needed.

I did find some that I could buy but I thought they were very expensive for what they are. They were very easy to make if you have access to a lathe.
Here is a link to the set I found :

I will post some pics when I get it all back together.

Putting together a spreadsheet trying to organize before I drop the ~$18k on the bike.. anybody put the Roland Sands Vintage Shortstack bars on? I have mini apes on my Sporty, and as badass as a few of the Breakouts with apes have on 'em on this forum, I'm not sure I want to go that route with the Breakout. I don't like how far the stock bars are forward, and adding a little bit of height would be pretty useful for comfort, I just don't really know what direction to take this as of yet.
