If it is, I'm unimpressed. If I am looking at the picture near the bottom that you are looking at, it looks like the Dyna answer to the Blackline Softail, which to me was a questionable release...


I expect the Switchback to be not unlike the Dyna version of a poor man's CVO Softail Convertible.

Agreed. Under the picture it mentions taking your bike to a "fit shop". It's probably just a catalog build assembled at a dealer with a special sign.

With the switchback being a new 2012 model and the new models aren't revealed for another couple of months, I'd say no.

Found this on moto-nation. Supposed to be based on the Wide Glide bike.

I also read that the Cross Bones, Rocker C and Street Glide Trike are all going away.

Maybe "switchback" simply means they are switching back to the original style wide glide...

Not likely Jayson. Look at that 19" wheel up front.

Would be awesome if that link wasn't in French.

I don't speak French and didn't translate it but a couple of things are obvious enough - The headline has the word rumors in it and the photo is a artists rendition of what it "might" look like, see the word "photomontage" under the photo.
