i think the breakout is the best looking bike harley makes, maybe the best looking bike that anyone makes

I have a 16 hard candy breakout with apes. I have no problem with turning or corners. I was told mine was originally sold in AZ and brought to tn when I got it. Best money I've spent. I'll be doing videos soon on it.

He did'nt mention that the 2020 only has a 3.5 gallon gas tank . The 2016 has a 5 gallon tank! Makes a difference on a long run.

Can you put a 2016 5 gal. tank on a 2020 breakout ?

Of all the motorcycles I've owned throughout my life, my 2019 Breakout 114 is my absolute favorite. Never get tired of looking at it.

Man this guy knows his Harleys.

I really don’t like the gas tank on the new models, the older model’s gas tank is much more appealing, especially with that beautiful council on it. Great informational video by the way👌👍...✌️😎

I can’t really confirm the reasoning for the smaller tank. My personal opinion has always been they did it for better cooling.

Purchased my Breakout last Month. And its a Hell of a Bike. Loving my 114 Ellie. Thanks for the Video.

Imagine that.... salesman at the dealership says “I’d recommend the 2020” and names all the ways the new one is so much better. The new one handles better and makes more power but it’s ugly and neither of them is made for track days. The slightly better performance doesn’t outweigh the newer ugly changes in appearance or the sound vs the twin cam.

Mark a I’m a motorcyclist first and foremost. I don’t help with these videos for advertising i do it for the love of the bikes. I’ve owned upwards of 80 motorcycles in my life and I’m no brand shop. Currently in my garage you’ll find 2 Honda’s, a Suzuki, a Yamaha, a vintage Triumph and just last night i purchased a 1976 CB750 basket case i have high hopes for. I personally own a 2013 CVO Breakout which is absolutely stunning to look at but I’d be a liar if I said it could hang with the new M8.

I have a denim white 2017 and I just love being able to do long rides with the bigger tank. Such a comfortable ride and all the power I need💨💨

White Horse I’m with you. I’ll keep my 2013 CVO Breakout over the new Breakout.

wow this video was exactly what i was looking for. literally these 2 exact models is what i wanted to compare. thanks.

I think that this Harley Davidson seller did not mention that 2013-2017 has done in CVO with 110 cubic inch engine , and that in 2018-2020 you have only one kind of rims with whole new breakout model.It is logical that you got improvements in new model , like led lights, display, ...,but the 103 engine in old breakout sounds much better.

I've always liked power in anything with wheels but on a Harley I don't wanna sacrifice my mpg. Now if I had a vrod I'd treat the bike right and wouldn't always get on it . Glad you made this video man and if you make anymore videos on any breakout or any other Harley I'll be there to watch

Thanks for the great rundown, I love the channel❤

I love the breakout like I love the vrod. In 2018 I went to Harley to me a new bike , the breakout didn't cut it for me cause it has a little tank . Another bike I like is the new Fatboy , the girth of a Harley is what I'm really into plus the Fatboy has a 5 gallon tank . I made a comment about why I didn't want the breakout , the sales man tells me that they have three pre-owned breakouts up stairs . I take a look at the three and they all have 5 gallon tanks . These bikes look new . My girl was sitting there waiting for me , she's a 103 ,5 gallon tank with only 498 miles on the Speedo. She has a screaming eagle air breather and a big radius v&h exhaust in chrome . This bike already has the Willie G handle bar and forward foot controls . I would trade my 103 in for any new bike , she doesn't suck gas like the 114 and being I like riding in long stretches , this one's for me

Forgot to mention the 3.5 gallon tank now from the 5 gallon previous and the totally new frame definitely enhances and compliments the suspension, Handling

What I liked the most about the video is the 5'5 "height disclaimer. I am about the same height and I had always been thinking that if I were to buy one. I would have to modify it.

Great video. Rob, great job explaining the bike in a clear and concise manner. Oh, and the Chuck Taylors comment was spot on!

Huntington beach H-D had a demo day last weekend for us the customer to try the new 2020 models. Is very hard for me to pick one particular bike because they all fun to ride. No particular order nor preference heres my top 3 new bikes. Breakout, lowerider S and sport glide. Good job with this video and ride safe guys😎

The rake is less on the m8 newer version, the older twin cam has a bigger rake so (personally) looks better 👍

I had no idea that was a dial for the suspension.. I thought it was oil related.. I just purchased a 2019 breakout 107. I love it

Excellent comparison video 👍🏻

Great demo, thanks from the Uk

I bought my 2020 on New Years eve 2019. Didn't even test ride it. I just knew. Hasn't let me down.

I chose the 2016 because of price, lots of quality upgrades by previous owner, better tank, and the 16 with vance and hines pipes just plain sounds better.

I have a 2014 FXSB. I traded a 2019 Fat Bob and I specifically wanted a twin cam over the M8. They sound great and run phenomenal. The M8’s might be more efficient, but it takes a lot to get them to sounding the right way for me. I can’t feel a difference in real world riding comparing the two, but I do agree that the 2014 feels hot. My 2002 TC doesn’t feel the same heat wise so maybe I just need a tune.

I like the sound of my Black 2016-110 with Bassani pipes and 585 cam- she's a stage 2 CVO. Still building her.

I like that 2016 breakout better love the bigger gas tank. the 2020 looks like it has a peanut gas tank kills the look of the bike

I'm not really a big Harley fan. But I do love the new Fat Boy and the older Breakout. There are a few commons on the fuel tank. Yes I agree they just don't suit the style of the Breakout. Love the new led stuff thou. It's a shame Harley didn't leave the fuel tank the same as the older model. I think that's the all thing that let's it down. Plus it gives you a long fuel up time as well. Well let's face there are some places that filling stations are far and in between. Apart from that everything is brill.

New gas tank looks horrible takes away from classic look!

Good info. I own a 2017 cvo Breakout myself with a 110 screaming eagle engine and dual disc front breaks. I like riding it very much. Thanks for the info on them. Trying to learn what I can about the bike.

I’m still torn between the old and new breakout.. I like the chromed out look and the cvo chromed rims are killer along with the sound of the twin cam that I prefer. Then I see the M8 shits on the old Breakout in every way apart from looks and sound.. I’m coming from a vstar 650, so I’m completely fine with how that handles and turns so if the old breakout has the same drivability or better then I think that will do for me. Isn’t the old breakout 4.5 sec 0-60 while the new breakout is 4 sec 0-60? Also how noticeable is the power and torque difference as I’m a speed freak lol Thanks!

@@Hybr1dK1dz i agree that the looks and sound of the old Breakout get the win. Also the fuel capacity is better.

I want to thank everyone for your input and knowledge of the different aspects of this breakout, but now is 2020 and I have employee's at Midwest southern Harley Dealerships that breakout has been discontinued so good luck with buying a new one next year. I like the high torque little bit bigger than a sportster and monoshock suspension café style seat mid controls and some distance from the exhaust pipes, all my Harley's burn the hell out of me and T-shirts are not cool enough in Texas summer weather. I want a cool motorcycle that don't bump my calf's or pressure my boots with crazy pegs and hard to brake and hard to get the gears changed, I wish someone would build a motorcycle that is comfortable to ride that don't weight in at 900 lbs.

I ride a black and gold 2016 CVO Pro Street Breakout. Wouldn't trade it for either of the M8 versions. I have a Custom Dynamics LED kit, a the Screamin Eagle Stage IV 117 kit, and a Vance and Hines Pro Pipe. I don't have any trouble with handling. The performance is decent. I want *more* than the 112HP and 124 ft/lb. It's getting Wiseco pistons and Total Seal rings from T-Man Performance, and probably a custom cam set from Comp Cams. Possibly some S&S stuff, too, roller rockers, cam plate, and oil pump. Of course, the other option is the Screamin Eagle 120R, although even that would get new cams. I'm wanting to push 140HP, or better.
