2012 SwitchBack vs Fatboy Lo??
Ok guys now my freakin head is really spinining! I was set on getting a new 2012 fatboy lo but now im considering that switchback! It really looks like a good idea and has alot of potential i could just picture it abit more blacked out with some skulls here and their i love the wheels on it! I like the bags they dont look overwhelming and they would be nice to put stuff in on a long trip! I love the bigger front end on it looks just like the front end on the fatboy. I like the front fender better than the fatboys! It has flair to it! Anyway that being said what would really be the better bike in the end?? especially for long trips! I also like the fact that its 650 dollars less than the Lo which is money i can put towards even more accessories! Also is the suspention better on the dyna then the softail? I use to own a dyna street bob but traded it for my Night train and its been that long ago that i really cant remember! I just remember that the engine vibrated a little bit more! HAHA! So Fatboy Lo or Switchback!

If you are planning on doing more touring riding then the switchback would be better because to setup the LO the same way would be a good 1000 +....As far as ride the dyna might have a slightly better handling, but to me not so much to say it is far better than riding the softail. If the black out look is what you are going for go with the LO because it would cost a lot to change over the switchback. In the end it is what you want. Hurry up and pick and go get it.

I'd go with the switchback, but then I don't care for most of the current Softails or the blacked out look.

Well not alot replied so far and i know its hard to tell tell everyone sees it in person including myself but it looks like so far you guys are favoring the switchback! I really like the wheels and the big style front end! I think this bike is a breath of fresh air from Harley. Alot of guys are saying its nothing new but i disagree. They say its just their dyna with bags! Well go get the hard bag detachable kit and that big front end and sweeping fenders and see how much it costs! It is not the same old Dynas!

You'll regret not getting the bike you really wanted. Get the Lo.
(not directly at OP) There's a lot of people that on here that don't know what Harley they want. I guess I don't get it. When I was looking at Harley's and my eyes first saw a Night Train it was a done deal. I was getting nothing else no matter what. I still feel that way. There's not a bike out there I would trade my Night Train for.

In my opinion the Fatboy low looks so much cooler. I am a dyna guy and I don't find the switchback my style at all. I haven't seen it in person and that has to be factored in. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder of course. Looks certainly mean a lot to me, they may or may not mean as much to you. Either way...
Good luck with your choice and enjoy whatever you get.
