Overview

### 2014 Harley-Davidson Softail Breakout: A Custom Cruiser That Commands the Road The 2014 Harley-Davidson Softail Breakout is more than just a motorcycle; it's a statement of individuality and American craftsmanship. Positioned in the custom-cruiser category, this bike is designed for those who crave the thrill of the open road but also appreciate the aesthetics of a finely-tuned machine. With a starting price of $18,499, the Breakout is a blend of classic Harley styling and modern engineering, making it a coveted choice among enthusiasts who want to express their unique identity while enjoying the ride. At the heart of the Breakout lies a robust 1689.61 ccm (103.10 cubic inches) V2, four-stroke engine that delivers an impressive torque of 129.09 Nm at just 3000 RPM. This powerful engine not only provides thrilling acceleration but also ensures a smooth riding experience, thanks to its electronic sequential port fuel injection (ESPFI) system. Riders will appreciate the 6-speed transmission that allows for effortless cruising, while the belt final drive ensures minimal maintenance and a seamless power delivery. Weighing in at 304.8 kg (672.0 pounds), the Breakout strikes a balance between a solid presence on the road and agile handling, making it perfect for both leisurely rides and spirited jaunts. The Breakout is replete with features that enhance both comfort and control. With a rake of 35.0° and a trail of 145 mm (5.7 inches), the motorcycle offers precise steering and stability, allowing riders to navigate corners with confidence. The single disc brakes—4-piston in the front and 2-piston at the rear—provide powerful stopping power, ensuring safety without compromising performance. Additionally, the low seat height of 627 mm (24.7 inches) makes it accessible for a variety of riders, while the electric starter ensures that you're ready to hit the road with just a push of a button. A range of striking color options, including Hard Candy Chrome Flake and Amber Whiskey, allows for personalization, making each Breakout as unique as its rider. ####

    • Customizable Aesthetics: With multiple color options and a classic design, the Breakout allows riders to showcase their personal style.
    • Agile Handling: The combination of a low seat height and well-designed chassis provides excellent maneuverability without sacrificing stability.
    • Weight: At 304.8 kg (672.0 pounds), the Breakout may feel heavy for some riders, especially in tight maneuvers or during low-speed situations.
    • Fuel Consumption: While the 5.60 litres/100 km (42.00 mpg) fuel efficiency is decent, larger riders or those who enjoy spirited riding may find the range less impressive.
