New Switchback
Bought a 2012 red switchback last Saturday. So seems to be great. I had an 06 SB, until the stator came all apart and was going to cost over $700 to fix it. So for I like the floor boards and the 103 engine, where my old bike had an 88 in it. Like the power that it has. Seat is ok but i have a Sundowner off my old bike that i will use for longer trips. Does anyone have a switchback that they have had for awhile and how do you like it.

Mr. Norton, I noticed the vibration. Must be from the bigger engine and the same frame as a street bob. I am enjoying the ride so for. I am used to the 88 on my street bob. Learned that the 103 has a lot more torgue that my old bike. Got my new exhaust today, not to loud , sounds really good going thru the gears. Fairly quite at cruiseing speed. Hard to keep under 70 until the break in is over.
