Harley-davidson Softail Breakout 117
The Harley-davidson Softail Breakout 117 has a top speed of ~185 km/h (estimated; governed/limited in practice), produces ~100 hp and weighs 303 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
La Harley-Davidson Softail Breakout a été introduite pour la première fois en 2013 dans le cadre de la famille Softail, inspirée de la culture des choppers personnalisés avec son avant allongé, son pneu arrière épais et son style minimaliste. La variante du moteur Milwaukee-Eight 117 de 117 pouces cubes (1 923 cm3) a été introduite en 2018 en tant qu'option haute performance, offrant beaucoup plus de puissance et de couple que le moteur 107 standard. Il demeure l'un des modèles de production les plus visuellement remarquables de Harley-Davidson, alliant esthétique personnalisée d'usine et performances modernes.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Milwaukee-Eight 117 Power
The 117 cubic inch (1923cc) engine produces around 125 ft-lbs of torque, making it the most powerful stock Softail engine Harley offers. It delivers strong, linear power but can run hot in slow traffic due to its high displacement.
Strong Resale Value
The Breakout 117 holds its value exceptionally well due to its limited production numbers and aggressive chopper styling that appeals to a wide audience. Low-mileage examples often sell close to or above original MSRP in the used market.
Watch for Heat Issues
Owners commonly report heat soak from the rear cylinder affecting rider comfort in stop-and-go riding — inspect for any signs of exhaust header discoloration or heat shield modifications. An aftermarket exhaust or tune can significantly reduce this issue.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"A stunning, straight-line bruiser that absolutely earns its keep."
$14,000-$22,000 usedThe Breakout 117 is Harley's unashamed style statement, and honestly it delivers hard on that front. That 117ci Milwaukee-Eight is the real deal — massive torque from almost nothing, and it pulls with genuine authority that'll catch you off guard the first time you crack the throttle. The stretched-out chopper geometry looks incredible but commits you to straight-line cruising; don't buy this thinking you'll carve canyons. It's a boulevard machine, full stop. Used examples from 2018-2023 are worth hunting because early owners often swapped pipes and tuners already, which saves you money. Watch for the typical Harley oil weep around the primary cover and check the rear tire wear pattern — that 240 wide-rear looks badass but chews rubber faster than you'd expect. Avoid bikes with stage kits and no tune; previous owners love bolting parts on and forgetting the fueling. Inspect service records religiously on these.
