Just wanted to let the forum here know that I caught myself off guard over the weekend and ran across a a 2012 Harley new model that is just what I've wanted until Stryker came along. I can't afford both so decided on the 2012 Dyna Switchback.
Bought it from a metric dealer, and they gave me a good trade in (especially with the mods I've done) and made a good deal. It's a totally different type of ride but just right for me as HD's go.
Thanks for all the help here and I still am expecting some parts that I ordered: faceplate and LED lights, GIPro setup, and the great guys at PHAT Performance were able to cancel my "slip on" order and not charge me anything. They will still have my business!
I'll see if anyone wants a good deal here on a these couple items.
Take care and "Ride On"!

Actually this was an excellent choice as far as HD goes. I will definitely have to test ride one when I am ready to by another bike. Really doubt I will give up my Stryker though.
Give us some #s? like how fast, mpg etc. Max load capacity? And tell us what you like about it over the Stryker ?
I see it's about $16,000.00 before tax and shiz.
The one thing I don't like about it is the suspension is really tight. Front travel 3.86 and rear 2.18

Nice bike Bill. Wish I could say it has the unique styling and raw badass look that the Stryker has but......














I'd be lying to ya :D Good luck with it and don't become a Harley snob
Oh but if he put 5 or 6k well maybe 10k more into it I bet he could get it to look close? Or wait he could by a Stryker for that much :eek:
