Hauled up to Milwaukee yesterday to pick up the bike and it was a good thing I had a trailer, rained off and on. Bike is absolutely a thing of beauty. Don't need to post any pics since Z06pilot has already shown plenty. The fit is definatley different than my 07 cvo springer was- like the way the handlebars curve into the rider more. The seat seems to be a little wider, but it is deeper and provides more support (stock cvo springer seat provided none, I used a sundowner, which I will be selling by the way). The only complaint I have about the bike is the sound of the pipes- WEAK ASS!! The screamin eagle slip ons I put on my wife's sportster sound better than the stock pipes on the Breakout, I'm not kidding.
Dealership experience (Hal's Harley Davidson-New Berlin): Biggest dealership I have ever been to- probably had 100 bikes for sale-my local dealer usually has about 15 on average. Were all very friendly, particularly the finance manager- really knew what she was doing and extremely straight forward and helpfull in many areas. The only negative experience was when it came down to my trade-in (which I was expecting). Now I knew my 07 Springer was in immaculate condition, but they told me I needed a new front tire which would cost $300 (which was the original tire, and I can see them wanting to replace it just to make it more appealing). But $300, that was just an insult to my intelligence. So, I simply looked up the tire and saw that it was $105 at JPcycles. Then they said the remaining portion was for labor. Bottom line, I paid $100 more (price of the tire).
To sum all up- the bike is awesome, with the exception of the exhaust. Dealership was extremely friendly, but I hate it when a dealership tries to stick it up my _ss in some way. I wish they would all just drop alot of the extra rallys and various events that cost so much overhead. I understand why they put them on (they want customers in there). But it is my feeling that they would get much more business if they decreased all the overhead and just played the role of providing great bikes, great parts and great service, at great prices. Of my soap box now- off to enjoy the nice weather here while it lasts.
