Nice!! Were there any issues with mounting the 2 into 1 pipe? Which model did you order?
Thanks again for posting.

 

"Nice!! Were there any issues with mounting the 2 into 1 pipe? Which model did you order?"

I used a new 2010 part for a Rocker but experimented to find the right O2 adapters:

1800-1476 18001476 779.99 Exhaust Propipe
1861-0594 18610594 21.95Drag O2 sensor 2010 FL
1861-0793 95.95 baffle quiet pro pipe

I used the quiet baffles. It is probably too quiet for many but I am a disabled Vet with pretty good hearing loss who rides in a big pack and trying to hang on to what remaining hearing I have left. Besides believe the trade off for more noise is loss of power.

I do like that it runs parallel with the ground accented by the chin spoiler but sits higher (happenstance) for additional clearance so as not to scrape the ground on a lowered bike

I think the Breakout much like the Street Glide (Harleys current biggest seller) is a "blank slate" and the easiest Softail to change and make your own reflected by the fact it was the first CVO created and made into a production model.

I like mine but also really appreciate the direction some others who have posted here are taking with theirs!

 

Your choice for the intake looks good with the wheels!

 

XWINO I am going to have to get a new laptop if you keep posting pictures of your "BLACKOUT". I am drooling all over it.
that bike is absolutely beautiful brother!!!

 

Thanks a lot I appreciate it. I was gonna ask you since you have a breakout. Does your right throttle cable rub on your tank when its turned all the way to the right? I've noticed it on mine, just seeing if this is the same issue for everyone.
I'm thinking of blackening out the fender rails as well. How much did it run you?

 

Question: Custom Dynamics told me the GEN200-R-1157 LED does NOT work as brake-run-turn on the CVO or stock Breakout rear. However even they seemed confused. So it does for sure work on yours? Bought it anyway to try on mine as replacement light. They also said a load balancer is NOT needed on the Breakout. Thanks for your help!

 

I would research your area and see who is the best powder-coater. The best are not always the cheapest but powder coating is really a cool way to go! I have one I use here in Chattanooga that makes it look like glass! Poorly done it has an orange peel appearance. I did the fender rails, rear turn signal buckets, horn cover and misc. bolts for a hundred dollars, I did all the work myself (except for electrical reconnect, which takes about three seconds with the right tool. I left that to the pros)
The rear fender is essentially four bolts (two on each side) closest to the engine. the entire fender and attached rails then come off together. You use a small screw driver to pry tab and disconnect wiring boxes. No need to cut any wires!!!!!!! The fender on the breakout does not have an electrical box attached like other Softails. It does have inside the fender bolts which are unique. The small turn signal wire connection will pass through the hole of the fender itself but not the rail, This is what I had someone else disconnect and re-connect.
It's a fair amount of work and if you let your shop do it they will likely charge you the standard HD (Hundred dollars.) They will also be responsible for any scratches or dings and absorb a lot of fear and apprehension so depending on your skill set and anxiety factor you might want to part out.

I think the Breakout is the perfect modern day Nightrain successor! I think Red and Black (I am Georgia Bulldog fan) would look awesome. I think "Black and Blue" is always a tough look. with the frame and oil bag both black, minimizing the chrome and accentuating the black (in my opinion) makes the engine the center focus as it should be!
Post pictures and good luck!

 

I'm going with Blue + Chrome with a hint of black personally. Blacked out isn't my thing but I still dig your bike

 

S'cool! It's great to find your own direction! I can remember way back before Harleys were cool and heard comments like. "I hate all Harleys! they leak oil and break down!" I can almost remember riding three months and never passing another Harley. When you did you did the wave as a sign of respect for someone else paying their dues. I can also remember hearing Harley riders saying, "I don't like the FXR! it looks too much like a Jap bike!" or "I don't care for the look of the Nightrain!" or "Dynas are the only way to go!"
Do you own thing! Eventually the crowd will catch up with where you are at but hopefully you will still be independently somewhere out there else!
I think the Breakout is almost a class of its own. It doesn't fit in the Softail, Dyna or Bagger niche.
even after many years of riding I am finding it has a significant "grin factor."

 

Man, I would have sworn you would have got one by now. Fortunately I didn't have too much in my Dyna Wide Glide so trading it in for a Breakout was painless. I managed to take off 90% of all the extras I had on my Dyna and sold it all on craigslist. My payments went down by $1. Of course I had to put some money down. No regrets. (even though the fuel pump on my Breakout just decided to start grinding away. But that's another story)
