Switchback????
Is it just me, or is that thing just plain ugly and stupid looking? It just seems to be a real bad idea to me. Trying ot mix a Dyna and a Tourer is like cross breeding cats and dogs.

Actually, I rather like it. I'm in the market for almost exactly this type of bike. My Lady and I will probably end up on a Road King, but the Switchback looks like it could be a good fit for us.
I wasn't initially that impressed with it's looks, but it's growing on me.
It needs a little... something, though. Maybe a little chrome on that front fender?

can't tell if those bags are smaller than the touring bags, but the do look like minature bags. again the designers at the moco add stuff to a bike that is out of style and will likely be replaced with stretched or full size touring bags. I get the idea of having a bike that is easy to switch between a tourer, or a more sportier bike, but guys have been doing that with Deluxe's for years.
