Harley-Davidson’s best selling Softail, the Breakout, is going black. For the first time in the model’s history, the iconic cruiser will feature a sinister finish, which coincidently will only be available in Australia and New Zealand.
Amplifying the bike’s darker side, Harley-Davidson’s Black Breakout sits apart from the standard range, and offers riders unapologetic attitude with a more assertive aesthetic designed for riders who want to stand apart from the crowd.
Building on the unmistakable silhouette that has made the Breakout a favourite among Australian and New Zealand riders, the new variant introduces a refreshed trim across key components.
That’s paired with a matching Black Denim finish and Blackline-inspired graphics package. The result is a motorcycle that delivers an even stronger custom presence straight from the factory.
Powered by the Milwaukee-Eight 117 V-Twin engine, the new Breakout continues to deliver effortless acceleration and powerful torque, complemented by modern rider technologies and premium cruiser comfort.
Combined with its raked front end, stretched profile and wide rear tyre, the new Breakout maintains the unmistakable look that has defined the model while adding a fresh visual attitude.
Originally inspired by the stripped-back styling and rebellious spirit of Harley-Davidson customs, the new black-trim Breakout broadens the appeal of the model for riders seeking a more performance-inspired factory-custom option.
Harley-Davidson’s Black Breakout will be available through dealerships across Australia and New Zealand, with stock availability expected from October 2026. To find out more, visit the brand’s website, or talk to your local retailer.
