D&D Bobcat.. I'm really happy with them. Little different than what most Harley pipes look like, I think they look good on the Breakout though.

Ha, that stock pillion was like sitting on a cinder block.. no cushion, and stupid slim. It kind of ruins the lines of the bike, but if she's happy and asking me to go ride more often, I'm more than okay with it.

Yeah, right! That's the reason why one of the first things I did after I got my bike was to get the pillion reworked by a local upholsterer....just to make the OL happy. Now she's got her own bike so she can't complain anymore. Will keep the comfy pillion for when my daughter is old enough to be my passenger.

Default Dolly or Mover for the Breakout
Hey all. Wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions on a dolly or Mover for the garage. Haven't been able to find any that support that 240 tire. Any help would be appreciated.

Can you buy an analog oil temp gauge for a 2016 fxsb?
I live in Australia and can't find one that fits...
