Welcome to the forum! whatever you do, DO NOT lower the bike all around or you will really lose all of your cornering clearance. As it is, the front fork suspension is extra-mushy and you lose 2" of height just braking into a turn.
You can do a majority of adjustment with having the seat revised- Go to a good seat shop and have them re-fit the seat for your needs. the rest of it can be adjusted with bars that sweep back a bit more, if needed. I think the CVO bars / riser will give you a closer reach.

A lot of my buddies own Harleys. Some I see regularly and some I see every once in awhile. When I tell them I bought a Harley this year they ask what did I get. When I tell them a Softail Breakout they don't know what I'm talking about. Funny, out of the last 10 or 12 people I told not one of them ever heard of the Breakout. They love the bike when I show it to them. Or when I have gone on rides everybody checks it out because it's different. I'm glad I got it. I hear that they sell them quick out of the dealers but I don't see to many around town.

Just saying hi
Hey all
Just thought I would say hi from Aus. Recently purchase a 2016 Breakout and love it to bits. Have gone with the Vance and Hines 2 into 2 Big Radius and the screaming Eagle Pod filter. Have since changed grips, pegs and mirrors. There are some nice looking bike here! You guys are going to cost me a lot of money in mods! 😆
Couple of pics from a photos shoot I did recently of the bike.
Cheers
Chris

Road Warrior
The classic BSA ad was the one with the scantily clad tough looking girl with the cane standing in front of a BSA Lightning, and saying something like "120 mph out of the box. THAT's performance."
In the Norton Commando ads, the gal always sat on the bike and just looked provocative!
After my college roommate and I, both of whom were motorcyclists, saw the Norton ads, we suddenly really we really needed one of those (bikes)!
