I'd like to mount an auxiliary plug to the handlebars and place another in the saddlebag. Is this something I can do just by purchasing part HD part #69200970 or is this something i should have the dealership install? I could not find any detailed posts discussing this on a Breakout. The directions say the tank must come off?
I have just put a single solo bag on my breakout, I got the bag made with a little pocket inside so I can put my phone or keys in it.
I have bought a USB charge port & am planning to fit that inside the bag, as for power I was planning to power it from the connector that I use for the battery tender, that way if I remove the bag I can just unplug the charge port.
Be interested to see how others have done it& see some pic's.

I didn't realise a battery tender Y adaptor was available, just googled it 
Thank you
no I need to go shopping again, be great if a Y adaptor was available with a USB on one end, have you seen one like that as I don't like to have a lot of un necessary joins

I use my adaptors on both my Battery Tender and my heated clothes. And yes, the HD-branded battery charger uses the same adaptors.

Hey everyone, new to the forum but I have taken the time over several weeks to read all the posts here. I bought a 2015 Breakout in August 2016 and I love it. That being said I have a couple questions for the long time members and tech guru's here. I am planning on installing a set of Vance and Hines Big Shot Staggered pipes and. DJ Power Vision tuner. I know about Nostradamus' info on his install using V&H part 17933. Unfortunately that part number is no longer available and they are using a universal fit # of 17939. When I called Fuel Moto today I wanted to be sure I could get a good map for the Power Vision, since the manufacturer says these pipes do not fit the breakout. The tech went on to say that they won't even order pipes for me if the manufacturer says they don't fit my model.
So here's the big question...if I order a set of pipes for a 2016 Softail Fatboy and a Power Vision for the same bike will I be ok with mapping or should I order my pipes and tuner separately and get the tuner mapped for the breakout?

Seeking an opinion guys,
I took off my tank badges and wanted to see how the Iron gothic decal would look on the Breakout.
Without Decal: https://ibb.co/mBrWVa
With Decal: https://ibb.co/dy25qa
Which looks better? Obviously I know it's subjective, but looking for feedback.
Sorry for the links, every time I try to embed pics on this forum it never posts.
Thanks Guys!

Yes, I have always liked this tank decal. I did a side by side comparison with the 883 and that was the best I could get it placed. It's hard to compare the two because our tanks are shaped much differently and have less surface area.
