What I like about Harley is that you’re not wasting any of your hard earned money on plastic.
That is very true with the premium models. However some of the newer models are plasticy!
117 is a crazy engine. This breakout looks sick sick sick . Well done HD
😎 It is one mega looking bike and that engine is a beauty. Great job
I'm selling my sports car to buy this bike, it reminds me of my 750 from my younger days, just much cooler looking and powerful. I've been riding for a good 40 years so I might as well enjoy the years I have left riding this bike while I can.
A great choice and am sure you won't be disappointed 👍 Make life a ride 😎
Get it. I've got a 20 Breakout and absolutely love it.
The small changes do make a big difference.
Looks mint 👍
Great review. 💯 Nice to hear your thoughts. Definitely one of our favourite bikes of all time
Thanks 👍 It is such a ridiculously cool bike!
Awesome bike, in my opinion worth every cent. Look good, sound good, and have shedloads of torque. Always have a smile on my face when I've ridden mine
It is certainly way up there on the cool factor 😎
Lol.
@@GBMatthew07 Yeah Ditto.....
Oh my Dream Bike 🏍…❤❤❤ thank you so much for making video of it… much love n respect to you man…🙏👍
It is a stunning bike 👌 It is my pleasure and I hope you enjoyed the video. Cheers
Higher risers or bars would solve the Clamshell riding position you experienced, perhaps the guys at Oxford HD will have something fitted for your next test, would be a good reason for another spin, they are great fun to ride.
👍 yes I think they would help a lot. I also think slightly higher bars would look great as well.
Nice bike and a great review 👍
Thanks I appreciate it and glad you enjoyed the review 👍 Stunning bike
My dream Harley!
👌 it’s a beauty
Beautiful
Great review Angus! Wouldn't trade my Speedy for one of these (especially as it's almost double the price,) but it does look beautiful, and seems like an interesting ride.
Thanks I appreciate it and glad you enjoyed the review 👍 An amazing looking bike. But yes, I don't think double the fun of the Speedmaster!
Great review. I have owned 2 Breakouts. 2014 and 2017 CVO 103-110. currently on a 2023 street Glide. but seeing this 117 in the 2023 breakout has me possibly wanting to get back into another breakout. Yes, they're very hard in my opinion to tight corner but I can go over Paris Mountain here in SC easily on a breakout. the torque and HP on this new one sound great. and the higher handlebars you pointed out definitely add to the aesthetic of the bike. nice rake on it. just add some custom aftermarket pipes from TAB OR V&H should give the bike the sound to match the look. I don't ride very far. more in town hop around bike. once you get used to the breakout they are fun to take on an 1hr-2hr cruise. again, nice review.
Hi thanks so much I appreciate it and glad you enjoyed the review 👍
Beautiful bike and nice review. I just wonder what HD was thinking with the tiny digital tachometer.
Thanks really glad you enjoyed the review 👍 Think they are trying to keep it minimalistic as possible
I bought mine in 20 when I thought that they were going to be gone forever. I've got the same air cleaner, Bassani radial sweepers, a Wood Knight Prowler 22x cam, and a full tune. Now to get the 23' tank on my bike and a Legend air suspension. The Breakout isn't for everyone, but it's damned well right for me. I love riding her almost as much as I love riding my wife.
😂 great to hear you like it so much! They are super cool bikes
What a beauty! Lucky you.
👌 really lucky to ride this!
Well, Mr Harley and the Davidson brothers have certainly come a long way since "The Grey Fellow "
The looks are Harley Davidson and I don't dislike it... however the only time I think I would ride a Harley would be in America...
Good to hear that someone has actually come up with a comfortable seat, after all it is one of the most important part of the bike.
Nice video
Ride on Angus!
😎 super cool bike! Looks incredible in person, great attention to detail. Yes I would struggle to justify buying this bike for in the UK.
Absolutely great work with the seat, very surprised at how comfy it is. Just a shame about the riding position!
Cheers
Like the big Harleys.
My current bikes are a 1900 Roadliner.
A Triumph Thruxton 1200.
Yamaha had 13,000 kms on the clock.
Triumph had 2700 kms.
Together they cost $A34,000 with on road costs.
The Yamaha has 100 hp, big motor loping power long wheelbase, well made good handling.
The Thruxton is fully acccessorised and has the street appeal of a Harley bit without the Hells Angel vibe.
The 117 Breakout costs from $A38,000 in Australia. In UK it's $A46,000.
Lors of custom parts and good deoreciation rate . Ive entered a Harley dealer many times yet never took the Rubicon step to buy one....except 50 years ago I swapped a new Yamaha for an 1942 WLA.
Thats my take on Harleys.
Not related to this video - but to your tour spain/france. Did you find the 12Litre tank capacity a problem on the speedmaster - filling up all of the time?
Hi, to be honest yes it was a bit annoying on the tours! I was having to stop a lot to fill up. However it is nice to have regular breaks when riding longer distances. I wouldn't let it put you off the Speedmaster
Fabulous lookin piece of kit Red she would have to be a garage queen in the winter though I would luv a go on one but alas not much point at £20,000 plus grand just could not justify it for 3 months a year if that .Great watch good review nice one 😉👌👍
Thanks really glad you enjoyed the video 👍 Exactly my thoughts as well, just such a shame to have it tucked away in the garage. Really need warmer weather for one of these. Stunning bike though!
Cheers
We'll just go in the pub and get pissed😂😂😂 I think that badass bike is getting to you 😂 Mind you, if you were an American Harley rider, you wouldn't be wearing ANY safety gear. I agree that is the best looking new Harley. Except the mirrors, they are naff. It's screaming for drop down bar ends. And I think you have to be built like the Ol' Man to be really comfortable on it. Terrific review.
Haha it got under my skin a bit!! Very true about the lack of safety gear, just a bandana and some jeans 😎 It is a really impressive looking bike, amazing attention to detail.
Yup definitely an Ol' Man kind of bike 👍 Thanks glad you enjoyed it.
Did I hear my name there? haha. Off to the gym!
@@MrDarcy-OlMan 😂 ripped!
Agreed that the bigger tank looks better. I'd have to change the mirrors though, those fitted don't look right at all.
👍 Yup I agree, maybe some nice teardrop shaped mirrors would work well. Lovely looking bike though
Did you feel it didn't always go in a straight line due to offset rear wheel and track. It's the reason I never had one apart from roundabouts, lol. Having had a few Dynas.
To be honest I did not notice that. However it is not the best handling bike around!
Nice bike and engine. What i find funny is a large part of what you are paying for are those beautiful crome pipes. But 99% of buyers will replace them for louder pipes. Why doesnt Harley just make the pipes with interchangable baffles so peoole who buy it can get the tone they want with the original pipes. And what happens to all the bran new original pipes that are taken off of every new Harley ? There must be thousands of bran new pipes somewhere. Its like you are paying allot of money for beautiful pipes for no reason. Why doesnt Harley just have an option to buy there bikes without the pipes. Its just an observation from someone who is not a Harley guy. But i do apreciate them.
Hear Hear 👏 A very good observation and you are completely right! I am not sure if it is down to emissions or that it helps keep the aftermarket exhaust industry going! Either way a valve or removable baffles on the standard exhaust would be great.
Cheers
Hey it’s been awhile. I wanted to check in and see how things were going. It’s Scott from Texas. I got back on here tonight because I remembered you reviewed the R9T so I wanting to watch that. I thought I buy the Trident, but I found an BMW for 11500 here and I thinks it’s really a great bike for that money. Anyway, I hope your doing well, I’m going to catch up and watch you new stuff. S
Hi Scott, hope you are doing well 👍 The R9T is a fantastic bike, thats a greta price for one! I am good thank you, hope you enjoy catching up with the videos.
Cheers
@@redangrevival Hey! I’ve also looking at a MT09. I really like that bike a lot and I can get one of those for 9250. Have you been on the new ones yet? The SP model is really nice.
@@shardie78239 I haven't, but do here great things!!
Does not do well compared to Nightster in some other test rides. Very what you see is what you get.
Intake bothers knee? Does not like to turn?
For a flagship needs more function?
The Nightster is a very different sort of Harley Davidson! More of a sportster, whereas the Breakout is full fat Harley 💪 Not so much built for riding dynamics etc...
Nice honest review but I did find the gazillion edits very distracting; it would flow better even with ums and ahs.
More jump cuts than a paratrooper landing in a razor blade factory 🙈
Thanks I appreciate it and glad you enjoyed the review 👍 Thanks for the feedback
Did a test ride and that sticky out air filter so gets in the way. Dealer says I can change it (obviously) but that's not really the point, how about making it right in the first place. I'll keep my Sport Glide I think.
Yes I like the look of the air filter, however it does get in the way somewhat! Maybe a case of just getting used to it
Built for those long straight non pothole roads of Arizona and California.
That riding stance is the “taco” 🌮lol
😂
Hi 👋, it just looks like a bigger version of the soft tail DEUCE , I think it’s too expensive, I think you’ll be great on the open roads, but once you get into traffic like the city of London , or Barcelona, or Madrid or St Tropez, I think you then struggle, and it will overheat.
I think the SOFTAIL DEUCE is one of the best looking bikes out there, I had written mine who a lot of a hog rallies in Europe and never had a problem with it, they are only sad thing about it is that my ex female partner has scanned me back in 2019 where I had to sell it, I had had it from new 1999, I’ve got over 55,000 miles on the clock, and I have written it in a serious fashion, 20+ guys hurtling across Europe , sometimes not breaking the speed limit ha ha, The bike looks great, but it doesn’t really sound like a Harley and by the looks of it the air cleaner gets in the way, Bring back the softail DEUCE a light and nimble motorcycle,
RIDE SAFE GUYS, PHIL FROM THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOULIN FRANCE
How does this compare to your speedy?
Obviously a lot bigger and more powerful. Different style really, both stunning bikes. The Speedmaster is much more comfortable!
I want that tank for my 18 breakout
It does improve the looks thats for sure 👍
An American Badass! ( on the left side of the road)
@@Tondaloona03 the left side of the road is the right side of the road and the right side of the road is the wrong side of the road 😂
I love it… but that little red/grey graphic on the tank proper rubs me up the wrong way haha. WHY?? Just black it out. I’m about to buy one and I’ll paint over that lol
Yea I agree! Bit annoying, but easily painted over
Nice to look at. Single front disk at that weight ? For that price why not a Ducati Diavel ?
That's like saying would you rather have a tub of ice cream or a bar of chocolate. Both great but totally different. I'd have the Diavel coz I'd never be able to turn the Harley 😂
@@lilynorthover8378 One of them is worth the price. 🥸
Yes I think the design really was more on looks rather than performance! The Diavel is a very different bike indeed
Hi Angus
When you are in your 60’s with a belly that has had some investment, that clam like riding position is awful. Lower back pain after a few minutes. Shame as this is a stunner.
Regards
Denis
Hi Denis, haha yes I can definitely understand that! It is not the most comfortable rising position.
Cheers
It tracks through corners like a pregnant Hippo! The stupid heavy breather is just in the way of everything you need to do with your right leg. BUT, it does go pretty good in a straight line and looks good doing it.
All true! haha
Have you ridden one?
@white_devil73 Almost bought one. It was in my final 4 bikes I test rode. I shopped 5 dealerships and rode 9 bikes. So my comment was just 2 days from my test ride. I have rode another one since then while on a group ride. Swapped bikes with a fellow who wanted to try my bike. We did two gas stops and I got a much better feel for the Breakout. It is by no means a terrible bike, but I still stand buy my comments. The bike just doesn't fit me right. But that's ok. There is a bike for everyone!
@tkchillin2065 fair enough. I've got a 20 model with the heavy breather. It doesn't bother me when I ride, but I know what you're talking about. You're dead on about the cornering. I'll scrape pegs, and she still doesn't like to corner. Still, I love my bike and will never sell her. Keep the wheels down.
That air filter looks just….in the way!
Haha yes it is a bit, but so cool!!
The dogs bollocks. Sadly too heavy and far too expensive for me
38K usd for naked one .
Is this basically the re-incarnation of the Lpw Roder they recently stopped selling? It looks alot like it ...
That is a good point it is similar in ways! Up close this is a stunning bike and great detailed design 👍
Wow, what an awesome looking modasickle! But hey, I like the cut of your jib in your reviews, however - and I know this is kinda shallow - a bad-ass bike deserves some bad-ass gear! I appreciate you were recording back-to-back with the AT, but the chocolate limes look 😬 isn’t rocking it on this fabulous beast! 😎✌️
ps Looking forward to the AT vid 👍
It is a super cool bike 😎 Absolutely fair enough, I really need to update my wardrobe for a review like this. Just waiting for the weather to warm up and I can get the nice summer gear out 🤙
Cheers
Ground clearance ? thats why i would never have one .
Built for the U.S. ,not really here .Long distance cruisers .Ugly 80s wheels .
Great vid .👍👍
Thanks glad you enjoyed the video 👍 Yes the ground clearance is a problem! However I think Harley know this but sacrificed it for the looks.
Cheers
They've got the looks back. I was so disappointed when the first m8's came out as the whole long and low look seemed to have disappeared. This is much better!!
It is a stunner, the small changes make a great difference 👍
As much as I like the looks of this bike, I can’t imagine myself getting comfortable with the riding position.
Badass review!
Cheers,
Lupo
Yup same, the riding position is just a bit too strange for me as well! Looks stunning though 😁
Haha cheers!
"Bigger ppl" yes we americans are a bit bigger. 😂
I'm 200 lbs or 14stone but I dislike most Harley Davidson, but this at least looks cool
haha I didn't mean it like that! We also have large people in the UK.
Not a bike for me personally but I do love the looks 👍
~30.000 EUR... Nope. There's a limit to what I'm willing to (or can) cough up to look cool.
27% engine or drivetrain failure within four years. That is what Harleys current record is.Horrible.
I have never heard that before! Not a great stat
Rubbish unless you can provide some proof.
the bike looks like it was designed by a 5 year old
😂
😂 fair enough!
😉
It looks awesome.
Fricken Harley Davidson. They make stylish, well powered bikes for premium cost and saddle them with the cheapest, ugly mirrors, grips that are also found on their cheapest bikes, and incadescent lighting for all but the headlight. In 2023! Let's not even get into the quality of the seat versus any after market seat. I mean, look at the bike, then look at those mirrors that could be on any UJM. I'm not ranting as a HD hater. As a HD buyer, I'm tired of paying extra dollars for things that, considering the cost of the bike, should at least be somewhat included as the base level components of an expensive motorcycle. For an HD enthusiast, I can attest to a feeling of upgrade fatigue. Can't I just buy a bike off the floor and ride it without the feeling that I need to upgrade this or that to bring it up to what its base potential really is? Oddly, I'm OK with stock exhaust. Having lost my shirt on aftermarket headers, pipes and tunes when selling a bike, base power is fine, thank you very much. BTW, my therapist thanks you for taking her shift.
👍 Haha thanks glad you enjoyed the video! Nothing beats a bit of motorcycle therapy. I do agree partly with you, I think the grips and mirrors could definitely be of better quality. I suppose they are creating a huge second market for modifications etc...
I've got to admit that the Breakout is the most ludicrous offering in the Harley lineup. Why anyone would buy this straight line bike is beyond me. Nope!
Fair enough, I do get where you are coming from!
Hi.. in this world of thugs, thieves and gang crimes.. NO chance to leave that bike unattended... H-Ds are the worst to own in MCs countries and cities...
(Berlin, Germany)
Hi, yes that is a valid point and one really worth taking into account! Would definitely want a secure garage for this bike
