I was just saying how a black Switchback would probably look great all blacked out... and it does! Thanks for posting!

Yeah it does. Maybe they could do a black Denim version like the fat boy low.

Looks very nice though it makes me wonder why he didn't go with black windshield trim or a black HD LED headlight. Maybe that is how he finds it at night.

LOL, good point. It needs your bars too or something similar, but overall I like that blacked out look on the FLD. I'd be real tempted to put a black springer on it though if I went that route. A dyna crossbones without the gold could be cool.
