For some reason companies just love to get it wrong... When I registered the bike with the Insurance company (Progressive) they were listing it as a FDL... Told them it was a FLD not a FDL... Their responce was they would have to look into it. Then yesterday I was doing a search on Cobra Exaust website and they have it listed as a FLX... Come on people can't you get it right? http://www.cobrausa.com/exhaust_comp...FLX-SWITCHBACK (2012)&product_type = Motorcycle Exhausts
Stevo, that's a nice bike you got there. Tasty, not over-stated, nice combos dude.
I see you are into acoustic guitars, I have a 1971 Epiphone Texan and I think the model is a 145. Is it worth anything? Made in Japan though, one year past the valuable one. Do I have anything?

See the logic in their thinking.
So any Switchback without stock exhaust is an FLX.........

Just my two cents worth
Progressive did the same thing on my bike. It's an FDL according to them.
The first hint of the FLD was sometime in early 2011 when someone discovered the EPA application to the feds. Harley Davidson at that time was calling it an FLX and apparently changed it to FLD later.
