    If I would like to buy both if I would be the owner of bank of America. I had 2015 Breakout which I sold for a 2017 Hayabusa. Now I have One 2017 Iron883 with V&H on it. I must say, to me, 120th anniversary Fatboy is the best-looking Motorcycle on earth.

    Coming from a 2012 Sportster 1200 and traded it in for 2023 Fat Boy… absolutely love the riding position, floor boards for foot comfort and the overall “feel”. Took it along Oregon Coast to SF - handled awesome on the highways AND city!!!

    Both bikes are chubby cousins in the rear...that black and orange on the breakout is stunning..
    the fat boy is meaty beefy muscular with a steamroller look..a show stopper..perhaps Harleys most Iconic sled for sure...some inexperienced riders think the fat tires impede its steering and lean angle..that's crap..I live in the rocky mountains and ride every Sunday in the twisties hairpins etc...counter steering sets the bike into the turn and i can scrape the boards when ever I want...a boulevard cruiser as well..love my 2022 Fatty

    The breakout is a great looking scooter no doubt about that. If I could only have one cruiser I’d have to go with the fatboy. It’s just personal preference but I’m hooked on floorboards and heal toe shifters I know it doesn’t come with heal anymore but it can be added. Also not a huge fan of forward controls I’m more into comfort the appearance. If it was all about appearance I would definitely choose the breakout

    I have a 2023 breakout and after 20 years of my dad's wanting, I got him a 2023 fat boy. Mine is atlas silver, his is vivid black. The breakout is for speed and style, the fat boy is for comfort and classic look. If you're going to be in town, breakout all damn day. If you want some more highway miles, fat boy. My personal preference after mileage on both, I love my breakout

  • @FranBunnyFFXII
    @FranBunnyFFXII Před 8 měsíci +5

    The Fat Boy is actually more nimble than the Breakout because the Rake is more aggressive, trail is much shorter, and the 18inch wheel allows quicker turning of wheel direction.
    The big advantage of the breakout this year though is the 117. And between the two bikes the Breakout has more lean angle avalible because it has pegs instead of boards.
    The Fat Boy though will be more comfortable, and that front tire likes to crawl over things easily on the road, so it's safer to ride on poor quality roads.
    I have a Fat Boy 114 myself. Fully upgraded suspension. It's an awesome bike. I wouldnt trade it for a Breakout.

    Picked up a '23 Fatboy this past September. Grey/silver. Man, I'm loving it so far. I was trying to decide between FB and Breakout. Unfortunately, i couldn't find a BO at the time and got real lucky finding a FB recently traded in cause the guy wanted a bagger instead. My local HD dealer offered me lots for my '08 Dyna. The '23 FB became an offer i couldn't refuse.

    Went through this exact same debate 2 months ago. I ended up going fatboy because I am 6'1'' 230 lbs and the Breakout looked kind of smallish with me on it, where the fat boy with its bigger everything looks the right size for me even though they share the same frame.
