Wow, the Breakout 117 is awesome... Harley's most posey bike for 2024.

I ride the Harley Davidson Breakout 117, it really is a big smiles machine and what a bike to pose on! There is a lot of chrome and you are going to need to be a fanatical polisher to own this beauty. Cornering is just fine, but don’t purchase this for twisty roads; purchase it for straight line fun and steady corners. I am joined by Alan ‪@HelmetHead‬ who tested the amazing Lowrider ST. Check out his video here. • Brutally Honest Review...
A big thank you to Newmarket Harley Davidson for loaning Alan and I these beauties, drop them a line and get yourself a test ride ASAP.

All depends what you want from a bike. Some want to drag knees through the twisties on a sport bike, some want a sedate ride on a modern classic and some want to cruise on a massive machine like this. People commenting here seem to think that these bikes are straight line bikes only - what a load of crap! Alright they’re not nearly as fast as other machines through the bends but not everyone wants to have their heads inches from the floor at the very edge of what their bikes limits are! These bikes go round bends just fine, just a little more work needed to muscle them around. That Breakout is a work of art designed by a person, not by a computer programme.

It certainly is a work of art, looks stunning indeed. You are spot on, this bike corners just fine it is all about going a little steadier and smiling knowing you look good (or at leat the bike does!) Cheers

Most Harleys are not made to handle anything more than a straight line. The Breakout is a lame attempt by Harley to make cheap chopper looking offering to a few customers.

I like your review because you were honest about this bike's shortcomings I test rose this bike and I also had a problem accessing the brake pedal! I have a 2021 Fat Boy with the same 240 rear tire and it's a bear to make turns. This bike handles about the same (maybe a tad easier?). However, I feel that the entire front end of this bike is hideous. The forks, headlight are an ugly mess. I thnk my Fay Boy is much more attractive while still being badass. .
@FenTour
@FenTour Год назад
Thank you for the kind compliment, yes, the bike has some issues, as I made clear. But I don’t think this will put people off purchasing the breakout, as they’ll fall in love with its looks or in your case not! Yes, the fat boy has an amazing presence that is hard to beat. Thank you for commenting and much appreciated.

Thank you for your kind comments. Only you can decide between Fat Bob and the Breakout. Breakout of course is more of a head turner, Fat Bob more nimble to ride. Then there is the price difference, you could do a lot to a Fat Bob 114 with £5k-£6k to spend of mods... Whatever you choose it will be big smiles. Cheers.

Definitely has the look a lot of people want. As for upgrading to stage 2 I don't see the point. It's a cruiser/poser. If you want a bike that'll jump out from underneath you then buy a crotch rocket to begin with. Just my opinion. I'd buy one of these in a heart beat (old guy here), but I like the payments on my 2016 Fat Boy with stage 1.

The Breakout is gorgeous. But best suited for local riding since it has no storage and the ride quality is not what you would want to make 350 miles a day

I would say that longer days up to 250 miles should be fine, easy to fit a removable cissy bar and rack for luggage if needed. Ideally for distance the ST as Alan was riding is more suitable or better still a Roadglide.

Is there a flatter breather, more like the one on the Fat Boy that you could exchange for to give the right leg better room?
