I live in Oregon USA and bought my ‘18 Breakout in Twisted Cherry a couple of years ago. Being brought up with motorcycles my entire 50+ years, I have to say this is my favorite of all bikes I’ve owned. Every bike I’ve owned left me looking at other bikes, but not this one. I plan to keep and ride this one for the rest of my riding life. I love seeing reviews that agree with my thoughts and feelings. Doesn’t happen to often these crazy days.

I have a black 114 Breakout with Vance & Hines short shots. You are spot on with your review I love riding my bike. One thing I would say is I took the pillion pad off and went for ride with friends. As soon as I got home I put it back on my arms ached like hell. Without the rear seat I kept sliding sliding back when accelerating. At motorway speeds having the rear seat to push against takes the pressure off your arms from the wind.

Immediately started looking up reviews and your the second one I’ve watched and both have been marked by not only how surprised they were by the bikes handling and abilities but both reviews immediately said just how incredibly “fun” this bike is to ride!

Great review. I've just (about a month ago) bought a 2014 Breakout 103. Supposedly harder still to handle than the 114 (I actually test drove a new one before opting for the 103). My other ride is a Honda SP1, so very used to chucking that around the corners. I've got to say it took a couple of weekends, but now I'm used to it I'm not having any issues, Its heavier and you can't lean over as far as the SP obviously, but you just adjust your riding to cope. This is my first foray into HD and I've got to say, I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Still get a massive grin on my face when I get on it and would recommend anyone out there to not be put off by the stories of woe around the Breakout's handling. I'm 6' 2" by the way and it's an amazingly comfortable ride. Ride safe all.....

I have to keep it below 4k rpms until the 1k mile mark and I take her in for the first fluid change and to have her properly tuned to open her up.

A long heavy bike with a fat rear tire takes some learning and skill, it's not "bad handling", it's just different. If I rode cruisers and choppers for years and jumped on a sport bike and did nothing but bash it for not being what I liked and was used to, I'd get crushed...I'm not sure why it doesn't work in the inverse.

I really like this bike. It is very sexy and has fabulous curb appeal. I test drove this at the same time with the Fat Boy and it handles just fine.

I’m extremely happy with my decision and feel the future for Harley is the Club Style scene.... and the FXLRS fits that for me.....the Breakout harks to the past.....fat rear tire and drag intentions.

If you buy a Breakout, then be sure to buy the extended warranty with road hazard coverage. I hit a pothole on my 2019 BO on US I80 expressway doing 85-mph, just west of Joliet Illinois, and bent the front 21” rim. I had to have the rim and both tires replaced. Without the road hazard warranty it would have cost close to $2,000.00 USD. Fortunately I always buy the H-D extended warranty so it was no charge, including delivering it 50-miles to my home.

Great review! I started off on a Sportster and moved up to this and it was a perfect upgrade for me. I wanted a sixth gear and forward controls and this fit the bill at only about 100 lbs heavier but with a much bigger motor! I agree wholehearted that the factory pipes are quiet. I think they put very restrictive baffles to meet California requirements. But I upgraded to V&H pipes for better sound and looks. Also, I initially had problems with wide u-turns at slow speeds and at first I thought its all I could do with the larger rake and fat rear tire. But I found that because this bike has a low center of gravity, if you use more counterbalancing than you usually would on any other bike, you can tighten up those slow turns a lot! Granted, not a lot of available lean angle there, but enough to get it around better. Give it a shot! Great bike and great review. Cheers!

Rick Anderson Hi and thanks! The Softail Harley-Davidsons have a low seat height so from that respect ok. Reach wise, they are quite long, but you can get bars with a bit more pullback. Its the longest Harley, so you would probably be on full stretch. Maybe have a sit on one at your nearest dealership. Otherwise, the Street Bob has mid controls which may be better and you can lean the mini ape bars nearer to you.

Thank you for that 👍 Now lets get back to the bike: For me, the breakout is a modern construed style of a chopper and not really my cup of tea. The style is very close to some japanese bike models.....furthermore suitable for new, younger clients. Nothing for "older" f***ers like me (nearly 50 years old). But the problem is: Younger people cannot afford a bike like that. A big problem for the company: The traditional clients will dislike the newer models and "pass away", young people are not interested to ride a motorcycle or can't afford it.

@MrDarcy-OlMan4 жыл бұрын
alan robinson hopefully we will in due course, although it’s pretty similar really to the Bobber Black in many respects, that we reviewed recently. In that respect , they are vastly different. The Breakout is more stable, more powerful, more torquey much louder and a far better bike. The triumph will corner quicker. Put another way; the Harley is Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Triumph is Sebastian Coe.

IMHO I think Harley should never have discontinued the Low Rider. Instead they discontinued that model and brought back an inferior model, The Breakout, instead. But that is the way the cookie crumbles I guess. I do own a 2020 Low Rider S and love it.

Yes! The Breakout is the one i'd go for between the two because it handles really well, is actually quite 'flickable' when moving, and it feels safe and secure. The Fat Boy is a bit more heavy feeling and less nimble (because of the fatter front tyre mainly).

Apparently this is similar of the VRod according to last week postings of comparison. If so, after owing four HD's this would be a thrill. Like the idea of less chrome. Nice but spend half a day to clean and polish. Not a fan to spend a cost to spray and spend nearly five bucks for cleaning chrome extensively but each of us have our quirps, yes. Still HD's are a bomb to ride even for only a period of time. As Deep Purple stated, "Long Live R & R" so I say Long Live HD.
