Well i gotta tell you i do agree with you! Cause a bought a Night train as well 3 years ago and i thought it was the best looking bike harley ever made! But i sold it this april like a dumb a$%! Anyway i do like the fatboy Lo alot but this bike has my attention too! Knowing me i probably well end up with the Fatboy Lo as i love softails but this bike has my attention so who knows.. I have to see it in person!

 

If It were me I would add the security and abs for $1195, then add chrome wheels. They look much better than the stock ones.

 

if it was me whitch it isn't I'd get the switchback
and put a fat boy front end on it cause that would
look good and a road king head light on a dyna dosen't

 

Hey--Don't forget the "Live to Ride" accessories with those skulls!!

Seriously, I don't like either bike. The Lo would've been nice, but the flat black frame makes it look cheap, IMHO. I would get the standard Fatboy & lower it. You're still $$ ahead.

The Switchback to me looks like yet another of Harley's abortions by throwing a bunch of parts bin stuff from other bikes on it, and change for the sake of change. If they put on auxiliary lighting, and 16s front & rear instead of those dopey,trendy sized tires, you might have something. A Dyna Electra Glide. Something I've always wanted. If you're leaning more towards a Dyna, here's how to have a much better looking bike. Get a SuperGlide Custom,IMHO their best looking Dyna EVER, put bags & a windsheild on it, and you'll STILL be $$ ahead than if you buy the Switchback. Just my .02.

Remember--BLACKED out is PLAYED out!

 

Well i will say this my buddy has a cvo softail convertable sweet looking bike for sure. .but it was over 30,000 dollars! This switchback is the exact same concept as the cvo just in the form of the dyna! Oh and 15,000 dollars cheaper! Just got off the harley web site and if you go to the section that lets you compairs bikes side by side it think its under tools,, Theis bikes almost look identical.. almost except for the obvious reasons dyna vs softy! But im just saying this is really a sweet bike for the price IMO!!

 

Get the bike you want and ride!

 

Get the LO, the switchback looks like a suzuki boulevard! IMO. The LO has way more personality to it. the make it your own factor! regular fat boy will look like everyone else's chromed out bike. NOBODY GET MAD! ITS MY OPINION!

 

I take it back, maybe it will look better in person! I mean, it is a harley right!

 

I had a 1999 FXDS Dyna Convertible. It was a sweet bike. Bags and windshield would snap on and off too. Seems they moved it up to the Softail now. I think they should put passing lights on it too. JMO!

 

Heck, for 1500 more I'd get a road king, just for the touring frame and the dual exhaust, the engine guards and the auxiliary lighting. If you'd put those things on your Switchback, it would cost you more then 1500. Actually, the bags of the switchback look pretty small too. I still like it, but if it was me, I know what I'd do.
