Looks Good Black  :2vrolijk_21:
It would be great if you could post a pic of the " whole bike " though  ?
How does the suspension feel ? Not sure I could do this mod with the rubbish roads we have here in Oz  :nixweiss:

Lowered the whole bike or just the handlebar?

Thanks for your feedback Dave. No it's not touch down easier. I can still run "hard" cornering  :)

What suspension (brand of shocks) did you use to lower the back of the bike...... & do you still have the stock (Harley Davidson) side stand?

Hi Joe, I use stock suspension and side stand.
Here is a link with the same lowering kit I use:


I just replace the bolt, see picture

wow..... thanks for the info....

 I recently purchased Progressive shocks (#422-4102C) for my Breakout, and I am going to install them later this week.  These shock ONLY allow the bike to be lowered two inches.....

  Has your bike been lowered more than two inches?

The lowered wheel looks great, but I see that you  still have that super ugly licence plate with that half black painted extra mudguard installed.
I have found the solution for this ugly thing , they have installed a licence plate holder that is normally installed on a VROD Muscle, the Black mudguard and reflector are taken off the Breakout and the VROD licence plate holder is modified such that the LED licence plate lighting that is part of this item is on the place where in the past the reflector was. While the Bike is still being prepared by the Dealer and I will pick it up next Saturday, I do not have any pictures. Saturday I will post the pictures of all the mods. :smilie_koch1:

I agree, the oem license holder is ugly.
You need to take some pictures so I can see how you've done it with the license holder :)
