I got a Breakout!
Wasn't really in the market for a bike. In-fact I was in the process of selling my Ducati 848 and just stopped by the dealership to help a friend make some decisions on his.
Fast forward 2 weeks and I'm the proud owner of a 2016 BO in Charcoal Denim. It's still totally stock so I can justify spending some money on it. Most readily on bars and pipes as I'm sure you all guessed.
I like the Vance and Hines Big Radius in chrome. Any recommendations on where to pick these up for less than $800.
As far as bars go, I haven't tried many other Harleys out but I feel like I'm struggling to reach the BO handles. Up and bac would be a nice fit. Something that follows the lines of the forks that but not crazy aggressive. Can someone point me in the right direction. Not sure how you get a feel for these without buying them and trying em all out. lol
Lastly, you all seem to have a vast amount more knowledge than I, seeing as I've been into Harleys for about a week now. Any other must have mods right off the bat. I'm mechanically inclined but not made of money
Thanks in advance!

Do you guys know if CVO headlight cowl is available to purchase already?
Or if anyone installed Night rod cowl? Want to do this mod on my bike
It got really warm here in Chicago and I start working on my Breakout again, still have to install Thunderbike chin spoiler, turn signals, black mirrors etc, and was looking to do something with a headlight too

OH YES!!!
No comparison.
Changing to the Pirellitires back and then front on my Breakout was, each time, like the bike lost a pair of cement overshoes. The change at the rear was particularly stunning.

Sharp bike, what did you do with your front signals? I'm going to be slowly working on getting my handlebar area cleaned up some. Can't decide between bar-end signals or fork wrap-around signals. Also want to add some scythe mirrors, iso grips and some kind of contrast cut levers.
