Went into my shed yesterday since most of the snow has melted and I could finally open the door. Lol. I had to start my CVO Breakout up. Just hearing it run made me yearn for warmer weather. This winter has been rough.
Was lucky to escape New England and its endless winter this year and go to Daytona Bike Week. I had the bike shipped down and was it worth all the effort. I wanted to update this thread with my observations on owning a Breakout. Be prepared to answer a 100 questions on the bike at every stop. In my 30 plus years of riding I have never seen a bike catch so many people's attention. On Main Street it had a steady stream of photos taken of it. I knew I liked it but never thought it would be such a hit with the mob.
I love this bike. The 255 cam and pipes sound awesome and have some stomp. The riding position works for me. The Shotgun Shock works great. Love it.
Here's a shot of the bike on the beach entrance.
