I have the HD Profile on my CVO Prostreet and have had to get them replaced after a year. They loosen up and the wind blows them out of adjustment at speeds over 65 or on quick acceleration. They are nice to see out of for a year. If I have to replace them again, I think I will get the new HD Dominion mirrors because they have lock screws on them instead of relying on friction to hold in place....but they are $220 a set. OUCH!

pleather or actual leather would be best. Would not be able to have anything too thick to screw up getting the trim piece to fit back
in okay. Tried a PM to the original poster but it has been a long time since he has been active in the site. Thanks....

Alright fellas, just picked up a MINT 2016 Breakout with 1094 miles and in like new condition. The only things that have been done are 9 inch mini apes (with chrome switch housings) and V&H big radius pipes, both of which were installed and tuned by the dealer. So, it's basically a blank canvas. A couple things right off the bat for me will be 16 inch 1.5 inch ape hangers and Legend air ride. I am gonna swap out some of the accessories like the foot controls for the edge cut stuff, but other than that, probably not mess with it too much. One thing that I will need to figure out though is the rear struts. I'm a chrome guy, and love how black and chrome go together, but those chrome struts on a black bike just look hideous. HD finally figured this out and the new Breakouts have black struts. Do most people go with powdercoating, or are they just swapping out the fender struts for ones that come black originally? For those that have powdercoated over chrome, any issues with peeling? I'll also do the rear signals with the struts. The other chrome is well placed IMO, but just gotta get those struts figured out. Also, the risers....what's the deal? Can I just not swap out the lower riser portion with straight risers out of the Fat Book. They offer like 27 different kinds of straight risers. When I search the googles, I seem to only come up with the option of CVO risers or some company in Australia who makes Breakout specific risers? For right now, I just reversed the risers because I hate the pull back look. Thoughts?

Anybody have a suggestion of what type of material would be best for covering the dash panels like this? Just wondering if a vinyl,

Thanks! For the most part just stock now, but don't worry, I'll customize it to my liking! But ya, for the risers... So, unless the bolt pattern is specific to the breakout, then wouldn't any risers work that have the symmetrical bolt pattern? I have seen the symmetrical pattern and the angled pattern, and that's it!! I think I'm gonna try a set of 2 inch straight risers and hopefully that'll work. I just hate those stupid pullback curved risers. Looks so silly IMHO, especially with apes!
