Just installed 422 RAP Friday and love it! Actually drug the brake pedal where it mounts to the frame... That was different :-/
Others stuff includes levers, grips, pedal, shifter, pegs, CVO seat, CVO tank emblems, Blackline console, combo speedo/tach, LED running/brake, signal, Custom Dynamic LED signals in front, K&N, Big Radius, Power Vision, and other misc chrome bits. I hope to have the 2013 chrome turbines, sprocket, and 250/40 on her by the weekend.
Also, thank you to everyone for all of the wonderful ideas and information!

On that 3rd photo, the one that shows the brake pedal pivot: Is that just an optical illusion on the bottom of the brake pivot, or have you actually leaned enough to scrape that pivot on the road?
No illusion Jim, I scraped it on the road. To be fair though, it was an odd situation and not just an extreme lean angle. I was going up an incline and made a sharp right hand turn onto another road that was flat. I cut too sharp and dug my brake pivot into the road. So it was part lean and part bottom out. It hit hard enough that it stood the bike up a little. And the worst part is that I had just installed it a few days prior.

I can also confirm that the brake pivot point is the next part on the Breakout to scrape Jim. I have standard suspension and stock pegs with the feelers removed. I was turning out of my driveway at slow speed last week and it bottomed out on the brake pivot and scared the crap out of me. At least it wasn't the pipes!! I was gunna powdercoat the brake lever anyway.

Ok, thank you both for the alert! I would never have suspected that.
Paradox, is the CVO pillon larger/wider than the stocker or does it just look that way? If so, how would you compare the comfort/density?
It is exactly the same size and I think the foam is identical as well. The only difference is that it is all leather vs vinyl, and the design of course. I was happy with the feel of the stock seat and loved the look of the CVO seat, so my decision was purely aesthetic. Hope this helps.
