That's the new Dyna Switchback? Pretty cool. Not too bad job on the plasti-dip, either.

Is that light stock or did you put that on? Looks real beefy and cool if it is stock!

Not sold on the plasti-dipping because it makes those parts look...like plastic. Don't mean to offend.

Just some constructive criticism here, but I think the matt finish would match better with the black denim color vs. the gloss black paint of your bike. Nice work though!

not offened in the least I asked for opinions LOL! That is the light that was on it when I bought it, my switchback I got used with 3300 miles on it and quite a few mods already done, except for this work and the highway pegs, and a kickstand extender everything else was done when I bought it! Got lucky I guess lol

Wow, really cool headlight. What an interesting bike, kind of a cross between an FLH and a Dyna. I like it!
