After much introspection, I'm totally sold on this bike now. I actually think the wheels are brilliant. They look like Mustang Bullitt wheels, which is pretty awesome. It just so happens that my wife, in-laws, and kids are on a vacation in Alaska. Seems to me to be the perfect time to surprise my wife with my new bike when she returns in 10 days.
I need this bike. My Sporty is a wonderful bike, albeit a bit small. The softails do *nothing* for me and I'm not quite ready for full on bagger. Enter the Switchback.

I have to say that I am interested in this bike and cant wait to see one in person, and if I like it as much as I do now I will be trying to trade my heritage for one.
I love my bike but dont like the counterbalanced engine, if it wasnt for that I would be happy with what I have.
I hope the Harley tractor trailer I saw at my dealer this afternoon was offloading at least one of these, I will go find out tomorrow.

Doesn't surprise me. When I first saw it the first thing that popped into my head was.... dare I say it.... Honda Shadow!

Didn't care for it on the HD site. Can see the attraction looking at the pics Sm0kediver took. Still not my thing, died in the wool tourer/retro/bagger (didn't we used to say dresser?) type of guy but I see that bike would appeal to many. More so then the website first impression.
Maybe HD should can their photographer.....
