Yeah, 4 gallons should be good for 140 miles. My *** needs a break by then anyway.
If I could afford that as a second bike, it would just be for short trips, and my Ultra for touring.

Since you're the sage here. What's the lean angle on the Switchback? Yea, thought so.

I have floorboards on my '10 FXDC that originally came with mid controls. Wyatt part number 49218-01. Basically the same floorbaord as used on the FXPD Dyna police bikes. Bolted right on.

I looked under Chassis for specs. Other years, Harley listed it's lean angle under CHASSIS. So EXCUUUUSE me..... when I looked there for the information and couldn't find it now that it's listed under PERFORMANCE.

And whether your Dyna came with mids or forwards makes no difference, the frame will accept both.

Forgive me ROMEO , if I dont see those mid controls with floorboards on your 2010 in the photo. Am I missing something? I see forwards with floorboards.
Like my post said........"without modifications" on bikes with mid controls.
Are you telling me you had floorboards WITH mid controls? If so, I stand corrected.

Floorboards have nothing to do with mids or forward controls, they are floorboards and come with all necessary hardware to make them work.

I looked one over today. I think its an excellent bike for the price.

$1500 less than a comparable equiped Road King.

So the tank is smaller....BFD. Most people I know stop way before gas time anyway.

The bags are also smaller.

Smaller riders who want a touring bike but cant handle a RK or SG will love it.

I say thumbs up to HD for building it.
