2018 Harley-Davidson Softail Breakout (FXBR)│Full Review and Test Ride

[@bryanrolland2967]

Very cool bike for sure; really appreciate you breaking down the lean angle.

[@armybiker]

Definition of "hell yeah" .. when Matt uploads a new video 😁

[@MinnerQ]

Very rare for someone with so much access to have so much interest and intellect. Thanks Matt. I hope the business reflects your efforts. If it hasn't yet, it will.

[@MattLaidlaw]

haha Thanks!

[@MattLaidlaw]

Thank you. Yea, I love motorcycles....but mostly Harley-Davidson

[@johndavies6152]

Hi Matt great review, question for you, can you remove the passenger seat?

[@davidgreve1081]

Why does that rear tire look like it would be so uncomfortable to ride? The bike looks nice except for the rear tire that was chosen to put on it.

[@thejerseyj1636]

Long and boring ? No way ! These are the best videos on the most beautiful bikes ever. Really, the motor company has outdone itself for '18. I love to just sit back with a nice cup of cafe and just let the autoplay do its thing. Wow, the paint... Oh !!!

[@MattLaidlaw]

Thank you!

[@warrenmullett]

Best reviews I’ve seen for Harley’s. I love the full breakdown. These bikes have so much to enjoy..

[@topcop1116]

The information you provide is the most comprehensive and honest I can find. This was one of your best reviews yet, imo. You covered it all. Passenger riding, bags, shield, even your honest opinion on the difference in the real world between this and the 114 breakout. Great job. Thanks.

[@MattLaidlaw]

Thank you

[@mosgor]

First of all: Thanks for great videos! so to answer your question: no! These videos are not boring, on the contrary, they are the best videos we find online, and when you look at the number of viewers you have, I think you've hit just exactly the right place. The videos are enlightening and they do not have the product advertising feeling one could have feared, they seem honest, and neutral. For people like myself, who like American motorcycles, these vido's are the best. Furthermore, I would like to say that it is a pleasure that you do not speak badly about other motorcycle brands but concentrate on the bikes you show us. A very important component is also that each video can be viewed separately, so that one can (in contrast to me who see everyone) - watch a video about exactly the bike you're interested in. In the long run, it is best. Thank you for your good work - looking forward to the next video.

[@MattLaidlaw]

I appreciate that feed back thank you very much

[@bobber1656]

Very cool bike. I had the privilege of test riding one last week and I really loved it. The clutch engagement point was off, but that's adjustable. I liked the power and handling. I still felt that Harley rumble that we all love (I rode the 114). I still love my Dyna Wide Glide & Street Bob for that great visceral Harley feeling, so they're keepers, but I wouldn't mind making an extra space in my garage for this beauty. Great review Matt. Thanks again. :)

[@Mike-bv2yf]

I would not buy a new Harley without watching your review first.Just bought the 48 and your review was a big factor.Already thinking about the breakout.At least I will get another gallon of fuel.The breakout definitely has my attention.With the trade in of my new 48 it should be doable.

[@willman65parish2]

Matt, excellent job. Your videos are probably responsible for 5% of Harley's national sales. Keep doing what you are good at! Bill P.

[@CUInMySights]

Keep up the great vids. Please continue to include custom parts add-ons...it really makes the the vids more informative and interesting. Thanks.

[@MattLaidlaw]

+CUInMySights okay thanks for the feedback.

[@zeus_ca577]

Best Harley reviews. Thanks Matt.

[@MattLaidlaw]

+Jesus Guzman thank you 👍🏻

[@jdubchoi7597]

Matt, I live on the East Coast, Philly to be specific. I'm new to Harley. Bought a 2017 sportster. Anyway, your reviews are very informative. Well done. Keep up the good work. I'm looking to move up in size so I'm all over your video's.

[@MattLaidlaw]

Thank you! 👍🏻 I appreciate you watching.

[@dewayneatwell7604]

Matt, thanks. Always look forward to your uploads. Best reviews and most details available anywhere on HD.

[@MattLaidlaw]

Thank you

[@gregmilona2159]

Great video Matt,what an awesome era these bikes are in now,wish they were around in the eighties,all the best mate

[@MattLaidlaw]

+Greg Milona Thank you!

[@gabbyhayes1568]

It's not "long and boring" at all, lol. Most informative videos on the internet about HD's. Thanks for posting these excellent videos.

[@MattLaidlaw]

+Gabby Hayes thanks for watching.

[@timmorrison2714]

I would have to disagree about the comfort of the seat on long rides. I bought this bike with the 114. The seat is wide and the angle that your legs are combined with the seat angle combined with the way the seat sits relieves any pressure points its like u a are sitting in the bike not on it. Its very comfortable. I've never had any discomfort after putting 5000 miles on it less than a year. The handling on the bike is far greater if you use counter steer techniques. With counter steer any bike can cut into curves. It places your bike on the inside edge of the tires giving you tremendous Manuverability. Anyone who rides a bike should know about counter steer techniques it can save your life. If you had to break hard into a curve it would throw you into traffic with counter steer you keep ur body to the inside of the bike while pushing the handlebars away from the curve places ur front tire on its inside edge giving you the ability to carve into the curve on any bike.

[@timmorrison2714]

I pushed my limits on this yr breakout with the 114. It has antilock brakes. I have geared down on this bike so hard its locked up the back tire and never lost control. I topped out at 120. It has a rev limiter or somerhing. I've had it in 3rd hitting 90 shifting to 4th. I topped the bike out in 4th at 120 mph with two gears left. It can hit 0 to 60 in less than 3 seconds. By the time i shift from 1st to 2nd I'm pushing 70. Hit 3rd at 70 at about 3800 rpm. I can cruise on long tours in 4th gear with all the touring models or choose to cruise in 3rd so i can hammer it. I can be doing 70 kick it down to 3rd punch the throttle and just insane acceleration at 70 to 90. Hit 4th and I'm at 120 in 3 seconds. Its a great touring and around town bike. Its a drag bike with straight line power but with counter steer you can cut curves so hard you scrape your forward controls. I've had it over that far in curves.

[@Twincam808]

Selling my 2016 iron 1200 converted with 4.5 gallon tank to get this badboy. This breakout and the iron are the most beautiful bikes harley made imo. But I’d get a 12inch ape bar for more comfort.

[@bgm1911]

I'm giving a thumbs up just because you're wearing a FF helmet on a HD where in most places in the US that seems to be sacrilegious (or any helmet, FTM). Beautiful bike.

[@MattLaidlaw]

Thank you !

[@mikef3300]

Very nice looking bike. One of my favorite models from Harley. Wish they didn’t cost so much though. Guess I’ll continue to ride my ole 95 Springer Softail until I get really lucky and win the lottery lol. Great review

[@andylace709]

Another great review Matt packed with plenty of information and honest opinion on the ride and handling.

[@kurtekdahl6872]

Great review & video. Believe it or not my wife bought this bike 2018 for me as a surprise Christmas present. I have 114 in black the dealership (Hannums HD) in Media, PA installed the stage 1 kit prior and Cobra exhaust. I absolutely love this bike. In the past 20 years I have owned 6 bikes Yamaha cruiser, 3 Honda sport bikes (still have an F4-i) and 2 Harleys a Dyna & a Springer in my opinion this is the best model Harley has to offer for the way I ride. You were spot on regarding the handling its something you have to get used to, no more quick turns. Thanks again for the great review & video. Kurt

[@johndavies6152]

Thanks Matt very much appreciate your speedy response. Keep up the good work and appreciate the detail ....

[@mopar21]

M8 looks great in this bike. Harley-Davidson rocked this one. Refined modern bike for those who are looking for that. Miss the Dyna and don't feel M8 was a magic bullet leaps and bounds ahead of TC but this is a nice bike.

[@thunder8cat]

Matt, I finally joined the dark side! HA! I traded my 2006 Suzuki Katana in on a 2010 XL 1200 C. Man you were right. The pride of ownership is much better with HD. It is an awesome bike. It takes off like a stripe assed ape. I love it. It's like taking the road with authority! I still want that 2018 Fat Bob 114, but for now I am getting use to riding a HD. - Another great video. My buddy had an older Breakout. It was a great bike, but like you said, it gave him trouble on long trips because no wind screen. Anyway, for anyone thinking about trading your sport bike in on a HD, my advice is DO IT!

[@MattLaidlaw]

+Tommy D Thanks for the comment Tommy! Also congrats on the Harley purchase. I’m glad you’re loving it! Yea, the pride of ownership thing is undeniable. Enjoy my friend

[@rsbharley4766]

Great review Matt, as always. Keep up the good work. Cheers

[@Patrick_B687-3]

I'm older than much of the target audience, so I like this bike looks wise, but that baby gas tank..it's not so good. Being the curmudgeon I am, not many new Harley's appeal to me, but I like keeping up with new designs. You make great vids on these bikes for potential buyers, so keep up the excellent work Matt.

[@joeglenn7323]

Rode one yesterday. I was hoping that you would do a review soon. I really like this bike.

[@MattLaidlaw]

+Joe Glenn Really fun bikes to ride.

[@craigyarrington4964]

I doubt it will be long before either Harley or someone will make an after market bigger tank for them. another great video Matt. looking forward to the Lowrider review.

[@PunisherPrime81]

I'd hope so..it really bugged me the tank was smaller ..not a fan of the headlight design but can always change that.

[@mickybrennan1490]

Great review as usual, tells you pretty much all you need to know , seat looks uncomfortable, compared to old model and tank size not good, preferred old breakout teardrop tank, 5 gallon.

[@Patiboke]

Man, you split lanes really tight, on such a heavy bike with wide handlebars! I'd go for higher handlebars like the ones at the end of the video.

[@timmorrison2714]

Great videos! I enjoy the stats and all the info. The test rides are are great!

[@darkoflight4938]

An excellent review again sir and no, you are by no means boring or tedeous! I just love all the info. The headlamp is the same as the one on the elec-bike? Well there we go, I just learned something new. Must admit, the Breakout doesn't tickle my bikenerves and I'm not sure why..? Maybe the small tank?

[@BigMoeFo]

BTW Matt you can stick markers in your KZbin videos so guys that don't wanna watch all the specs and add-ons can skip right to the ride!

[@MattLaidlaw]

Good idea. I'll have to figure out how that all works.. I'm sure it isn't too hard .

[@KIWEPETES]

You Always do a great thorough review, keep up the good work.

[@RobertBIrish]

Love the videos, just an fyi I rode my Breakout from Florida to Ohio =D and I am only 5'6" tall and it fits me like a glove.

[@CharlieMallow]

This contained very detailed information, like always! Great job!

[@jag2039]

Matt why did they stop making the Black Line it was Bad Ass n looked awesome Lol gas gage Matt so u know when you’re running out of Gas imagine wouldn’t take long ✌🏻👍🏻 Nice videos Matt thanks

[@matt2012mt]

Awsome, super informative video. A good salesman knows his product!

[@DeadDogSanders]

good review thank You ! looking @ the Triglides alot! Great looking bikes also ! Keep up your work! ~ Rikki~

[@mtoli266]

Thanks for this video, Matt. You do a great job, and have a great job!

[@thomasangelo4219]

Best reviews thank you Matt love old and new Harley Davidsons

[@allen2959]

Well I officially have the bug for one of these. Especially with an ape hanger conversion. On the list for next years toy. Kinda broke my leg so wont be ready to ride untill season is pretty much over here in Minnesota

[@corneliusx1811]

Please go over the recommended maintenance schedule for these bikes and others. I am forecasting the annual maintenance cost based on riding about 15,000 per year. Thanks.

[@MattLaidlaw]

I'll do a future video on that. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@brianhegedus440]

I currently ride a Ducati monster 796 and really love the look of this bike. I’m only 5’6” though so I’m thinking this may not be a great fit for me. Plus I’m apprehensive about going to forward controls to start. I love the more standard positioning of the 796. Do they sell a kit to shorten the forward controls? I know the Ducati xdiavel does now.

[@BigMoeFo]

The pipes sound great! Really low end Listened on my sound system. Saw this bike up close not crazy about the LCD speedo, I grew up in the 80''s so LCD reminds me of Casio watches.

[@joeglenn7323]

Mitch Clyman , I like the small LCD speedo/info center. Leaves the bike with very clean lines, as if it doesn't even have instrumentation. It's all there and very easy to read.

[@BigMoeFo]

Joe Glenn the great thing is with this new line of Softails there's something for everyone! 😉

[@joeglenn7323]

True, except I don't like either of the two bikes with a 5 gallon tank and I'm pretty sure the 3.5 gallon tank is going to keep me from buying a Breakout or a Fat Bob. I'm probably going to get a second hand Fat Bob and will trade out of it if HD puts a 5 gallon tank on the Breakout in 2019 or 2020.

[@rocko8153]

Awsome job on the review! Very detailed!! Thank you , keep the videos coming 👍

[@darrylelvey1251]

i like it because it looks like areal bike without all the crap on like wind shield and fairing and crap just you in the wind. what sort of up grades would you do to the 114 breakout or do you think its good enough as is power wise?

[@badkarma3059]

Some solid incremental refinements on that bike. Coming from a breakout owner, a nice stock trim improvement the motor company did was to get rid of those god-awful stock dunlop's. 👍

[@mannys2893]

How do you think this compares to the 2010 Rocker C (FXCWC)? They both seem like H-D took the same approach but obviously I'm sure the Breakout has it's finer points.

[@bodycream7904]

Dang this is the one I want can't wait to have one of my own!

[@timbutler3213]

Have you bought a bike yet? I just bought the new Fat Boy. LOVE it.

[@EILANDBAMRecords]

I probably watched this for the 10th time. I can't wait until the day i own one. Greetings from Belgium.

[@MattLaidlaw]

Haha thanks man.

[@TheTrenya]

This is what I've been waiting for.. Thank you sir..

[@MattLaidlaw]

+TheTrenya no problem hopefully you got some helpful info.

[@jeanne1019]

I’s this bike a good option for female riders , height 5’10”? I’m very seriously considering buying one. My hubby had a 15 breakout , but I like the way this 18 fits my frame . It has the 114 and stage 1 kit. I previously have had two rockers Thanks In advance

[@goregeegaming]

why did they stop making this bike, I love this bike!

[@jamest4162]

Love your in-depth reviews! Really digestible info, especially to someone fairly new to Harleys and cruisers in general. Only have a Ninja 250 right now, but I'm really intrigued by the new Low Rider. When will we be expecting a review on that one?

[@MattLaidlaw]

+James T thank you. I'll have the one up fairly soon like 3-8 days

[@darrylelvey1251]

sorry when I said I hated the wheels I meant the rims, I love the fat wheel on the back its great. what kinds top speed does the 114 have and does have trouble keeping up with other Harleys?.in the video you showed the 107,but if I bought the 114 breakout and changed the exhaust and added some of the sceaming eagle up grades as I love more power would the speedo need to be up graded as well cause in Australia the cops are dynamite on speeding here in Melbourne and you need an accurate speedo? love your video thanks

[@MattLaidlaw]

It keeps up just fine. This bike has a governor that stops you speed at 110

[@barackblows1942]

Well that sucks, nobody at the dealership mentioned that when I bought my 2019 FXBRS.

[@thomaseisert624]

Great Video. Like always. Kind regards from Munich, Germany!

[@kawancraigstewart]

Matt, I just purchased a 2018 breakout with 114 engine vivid black and my dealer in Michigan told me any slip on not EPA compliant would void my warranty and they told me I had to have it tuned for any slip on .

[@MattLaidlaw]

The catalytic converter is in the muffler on the 2018 softails. So yes what they are saying is true. It doesn’t void the warranty on the whole bike though. Just the muffler part

[@kawancraigstewart]

Matt Laidlaw Thanks Matt. Every since I got my new breakout a month ago you’ve been my go to since I joined the Haley club . Your reviews are the best. They are detailed and so informative. If I wasn’t in Michigan and lived in California you’d be the only place I’d do business.

[@darrylelvey1251]

also love the instruments in the handle bars

[@Cammann1122]

Hey Matt, I’ve been doing a lot of research on Harley’s and this bike has caught my eye, great review by the way. I have no experience on any motorcycles and I was wondering what you think of this bike being a first bike for a rookie rider? I am also 5’10” and would just be using the bike going too and from work which is about a 14 mile trip.

[@MattLaidlaw]

It isn’t a good beginner bike. That being said you could learn on it. You might make mistakes on the bike like dropping it that will cost more to fix than if you were on a inexpensive motorcycle.

[@saddle8bag]

Just noticed that in addition to the "torque at the rear wheel" being wrong, the HP cam makes less power than the HT. And the HT makes less torque than the HP. And that's not just on this chart either. It's that way on the CVO Streetglide chart too. They should fix that stuff. Not impressive.

[@Jinbrge]

So I recently bought a 2017 Breakout and love it. I admit it is not a "performance" machine but style wise it cannot be beat. I'm sure everyone who purchased a Breakout did so because of the look and how it makes you fell when you ride it. The new Breakout misses the mark big time on style. Where did the turbine wheels go????????? The small tank is a complete fail.

[@MattLaidlaw]

+Jeff Morgan Yea. If I can say one thing is close if not better it's the overall look of the old breakout. They still look awesome. The stiffer frame on the new breakout is just better to ride though. The M8 is better to. 2017 FXSB is still a very nice bike though man. Enjoy it.

[@fabiobertinipaes7122]

Hey mate, I am from Brazil and I love HD and your reviews. I want to buy a HD softail 2018, and I am with a bigger doubt between Street Bob and Breakout 114. I already did a test ride with Street Bob and I love it the handling, but I prefer the Breakout style. I didn’t ride a Breakout yet but I would like to know the difference if you compare both?

[@Teachering]

A nice bike! Great video review...as always.

[@MotorcyclesforTallRidersNow]

Which Harley Davidson bike would you recommend for a giant? I'm 6'7 and want to stretch out.

[@danmurphy1994]

Hey Matt, great review as always. I appreciate you covering the 107 Breakout. I heard the 107ci M-8 has a totally different personality than the 114ci M-8. Also I have a question that only you could accurately answer I think, being so involved with the brand and the fact that you work for HD I figured you may know: Of all the available 2018 Harley Davidson motorcycles; Which model and configuration has the best power to weight ratio? Thanks lol

[@MattLaidlaw]

+Danny Murphy The 107 and 114 do not have totally different personalities. The 114 softails have the best power to weight ratios in the 2018 model year. The two best are the Fatbob and breakout. The 4 114 CI softails are very close though.

[@danmurphy1994]

Right on Matt thanks for the response! I guess the stock power to weight figures aren't of any consequence with so many ways to increase power on these relatively low stress engines. I was really impressed to see how easily the Fat Bob 114ci accelerated from 70mph to 120mph, no drama just effortless acceleration, seems as if the engines were designed to power a 3,000 pound car, like they don't even seem to break a sweat no matter how hard they're pushed, lookin forward to see your next video(s) on more of the new or redesigned HD's man

[@markmcintosh7095]

Danny Murphy I have a 114 fat bob and 107 sport glide and you will not feel much difference. Some people like the 107 better. My 107 feels smother and more snappy in the lower end. Can't go wrong with either. Supper fun motor.

[@2hotFL]

Not really a fan of this model, but another great review as always.

[@navinbabji]

The breakout can be a nice substitute to the v-rod, what say you???👍👍

[@MattLaidlaw]

+navin babji absolutely.

[@euozdil]

looks a bit like the night-train from 20 years ago.. that was gorgeous too.....

[@cheby56]

Love my Night train

[@N6570J]

Nice job, Matt!

[@Maxamar90]

Was at my local HD dealer the other day god dam they really are not a working mans bike company anymore price of the new bikes are up 5-8 grand and they where already expensive before that but at least it with reachable.

[@superduty131]

An Iron can be punched out with a kit to 1200cc and the right set up put out 99 horsepower with torque at 80ft lbs. You will never be bored!!

[@miguel123wence]

I have to admit it and we need to be fair this bike looks beautiful he's a very nice looking bike the only thing that I'm concerned is about it 3 gallons tank three and a half I think I don't know how far you can go with three and a half gallons of full

[@MattLaidlaw]

120 miles easily.

[@Axl_colts]

@@MattLaidlaw it gets 47 mpg right? Should get 150 miles easily!

[@morkthetubabiker5479]

Is it possible to swap out the 5 gallon tank from one of the other new softail models?

[@MattLaidlaw]

I would think so. I haven't seen it yet

[@topcop1116]

One question. Can this bike be made comfortable enough for 100-200 mile days 2 up. I used to have a Vulcan 900 custom. Very similar style which I love. Sold it because I wanted more power and size to handle my lady and me. I love the breakout style.

[@MattLaidlaw]

Yea, there is a more comfortable seat (sundowner) that you can buy for it. It will do that mileage, no problem, but there are just better touring options available out there.

[@elias1579]

I’m 6’1 290. Could I ride this bike or is it to small?

[@johanvanhullebusch980]

iam 5.5, 152 pounds, i have gsxr and harley street 750, butt i like the breakout kwa looks, is it possible for me to reach thoose, foward controls?. is it possible to change them to middle rangecontrols

[@Axl_colts]

Will the detachable bags go on without relocating the tail lights?

[@HIJUELAGRANDE]

Great detailed video of the Breakout Matt! Are you going to do one for tje Lowrider as well? Hope you do! Cheers!

[@MattLaidlaw]

Yes, The low Rider video is coming in near future.

[@Meshari47]

What a detailed explanation Subbed!

[@mixalis6168]

New softies are awesome !New tank on breakout to small.....

[@MattLaidlaw]

+mixalis I'm getting that a lot.

[@gabbyhayes1568]

It's a bar hopper. You're not going to tour on it. You'd be ready for a break after 80-90 miles any way.

[@karamlevi]

Gabby Hayes yeah I’m planning on taking lots of breaks anyways... I drive a Prius V for a tour (and for work) but a bike to engage life... I like the need to take a break and stay more social and also I love nature... I like riding n taking a little walk every so often since I’ve given up the idea of speeding and coving lots of un-needed fatigue-ing miles.

[@johndavies6152]

Matt, may be a stupid question but can you remove the passenger seat? Thanks

[@MattLaidlaw]

+John Davies Not a stupid question and yes, you can remove it independent of the rider seat

[@FranBunnyFFXII]

You can tell the engine sounds good, even at the higher idle, but the pipes just ruin the sound. Would replacing them with slip ons from Cobra or Vance and Hinez void the warranty or anything like that? These EPA regulation pipes are killing the Vtwin sound that everyone loves. And if you get slip-ons do you have to retune the bike with something from Screaming Eagle? I like the round aircleaner on the 107, reminds me of the older fatboy my grandpa has.

[@MattLaidlaw]

You don't void the warranty with slip-ons. Everyone gets them. Yes, you will need the pro street tuner if you do exhaust.

[@glenntracey4127]

Hi Matt, great reviews you do, I have spent most of my Sunday looking at them. I ride a 2016 Street Glide Special, had a Road King for 5 years previously to that. I want to go to a lighter screen free bike that is capable for two up ( yes I'm one of those heavy dudes you refer to in the vids, lol ) and am 6 foot 2 inches tall. Looking at the new 2018 Deluxe verses the 2018 Heritage. Will you be doing a review on either soon ? Rgds Glenn, Sydney Australia.

[@MattLaidlaw]

The deluxe isn't even being made yet, at least in California, the lights didn't pass DOT cert. I will be doing a heritage review soon. The deluxe won't be until next year though. I can already tell you based on what you said that you should go with the Heritage - hands down. More travel in rear suspension and two-up seating already there.

[@glenntracey4127]

FLHCS ordered :), expected delivery next week, still look forward to your review on the Heritage though, and thanks again for your great video's (just watched your slim video, hmmm, now a heritage with Hollywood bars, now there's a thought ! :) ) definitely an influencing factor when looking to purchase as your honest views and unbiased comments are terrific.

[@darrylelvey1251]

i watched another video and it had a 117 stage 3 what ever that means breakout but it flies .so can you explain this in detail for me.thanks

[@MattLaidlaw]

Look up my. Stage 4 softail video. I explain everything there.

[@matthewlidel4324]

Hey matt great video buddy

[@MattLaidlaw]

+Steven Miller thank you!

[@ronl6746]

The gloves you’re wearing on the ride. What are they??

[@kenkrouse434]

Hey, was the dyno sheet showing HP and torque with a stage 4 kit, did it have performance exhaust??? If not how much hP would it have with performance exhaust? Such as thunderheader???

[@barackblows1942]

ken Krouse Stage IV needed to match the 125 hp that you get on a standard 1250cc Revolution engine. How much does that cost?

[@dheller777]

Thanks for the review. I am thinking about the Low Rider. Since it only comes in the 107 do you think the 114 upgrade would be worth it? I do a lot of two up riding with the better half and was planning on being able to get an S model in the Low Rider for 2018 but now that's not going to happen. Was hoping to see the 114 in the Low Rider, possibly a mid season model upgrade for the Low Rider, I wish. Thanks again.

[@TexasGlocker1]

[@onestardragon2011]

I would love one!My dream bike.

[@verruno999]

Hi Matt, i enjoy your vlogs. They’re very informative and fun to watch. I would however, like to request you to please have someone else record you while you’re riding a bike as watching the entire video from a POV perspective is a little monotonous. Also, the viewers would get to look at the bike while its on the move. Cheers.

[@MattLaidlaw]

Thank you for the comment. I got that feedback a lot and I have since changed how I film. I always ride with someone else to get the 3rd person perspective.

[@bignoiz08]

Harley gotten me confused..too many great new bikes😄👍🏽 but the fxdr..fatboy...breakout...or a street glide....im.so torn.....but definitely a fan..

[@Moonrakerd]

coolest harley ever created

[@1RevMatt]

looks badass to me!

[@gearhead1805]

When is the heritage review coming?

[@Brianjmhutton]

Awesome review! Thanks!

[@Axl_colts]

I just bought one! Getting a stage 2 put on it now....

[@Islandsoundzz]

I’d like to know how this bike compares to the Honda Fury in the “chopper” style category.

[@MattLaidlaw]

This bike is the real deal. The Honda is a Japanese rip off.

[@Islandsoundzz]

Matt Laidlaw that might be the case, but given that the Fury is nearly half the price of the Breakout, I’m a little curious of how they differ in handling and performance. If cost wasn’t an option I would go for the Breakout without a question.

I would say this style is more Street Drag or "Pro-Street," than "Chopper..." That's why they probably offered the 114" in this Model...
