I ordered a mustache bar engine guard but the dealership tried to charge me $300 for installation + $400 for the engine guard so i cancelled it.
Could someone please make a video on how to install an engine guard for a Harley Breakout please? What to watch out for and what to avoid when installing? Also which engine guard do you recommend?
Thank you in advance.

Agree with Ray "IMO no engine guard is best on a Breakout."
I wanted some manner to be able to stretch out more on my '15 but think a highway bar to NOT be the look I wanted... I went the RIVCO adjustable bars that mount to each side of frame down tubes... Went with chrome and think it looks awesome and truly functional... Can't take a photo until this weekend as my "Willis" is not at my location.... Photo to follow...

I have these and they work really well. Only downside is you have to use Kuryakyn pegs. These are called "Kuryakyn peg mounted cruise mounts" (Kuryakyn item #7887)
I'm 5'11" and I can fully extend my leg when I put my foot on the forward pegs. The cruise mounts give me 3 foot positions. Stock foot placement, heel/toe (as seen in the pic) and fully extended. This was a pic from a 2000 mile trip to the Tail of the Dragon. They are worth every penny as far as I'm concerned and they don't take too much away from the bike.
