My 2013 Switchback upgrades: L.E.D’s all around, Bassani header, S&S air cleaner, oil pump & pushrods, Fueling 574 hi performance cams & a big ol’ tuner. Michelins & a solo seat….. took a good thing & made it one helluvalot better. Handles wonderful & goes like a scalded dog!!!!
@@DOCFWH of its still available jump on it. The FLD was generally ignored and as such most of them are in great shape in the used market. Now they are coming into the know and are getting harder to find.
Do you know if a CC is available aftermarket? Considering a Switchback and I couldn’t care less about other modern screens and electronics but I’d love to have a CC.
I believe Harley actually offers cruise control for an add on around $300 you would just need to take it to a dealership to get the ECU flashed to recognize it. I don't think it was available when I looked a year or 2 ago but recently I saw it.
What year Switchback do you have, and what changes have you made to it? There's a 2016 for sale near me that I'm very interested in. Thanks in advance.
@@DOCFWHmines a '12, put Tbars on it, bassani exhaust, mustache crash bar on the front and bungkings on the back to protect the model specific bags. I also added the speedo/ tach gauge, and a Corbin step-up seat, and passenger mini floor board pegs.
i'm looking at a used one now with low miles. i don't care for the wheels, do you think they could be changed out to a spoked wheel and still have the discs fit the brakes? thnx.
Hogworkz makes LED upgrades for tons of Harleys and Indians. I know they make LED headlights and turn signal upgrades for the Switchback because a dealer near me has a 2016 on sale for stupid cheap and I checked lol.

@@jesusamador4661 a dyna has 2 shocks on the outside of the frame a softail has a rearend that looks like a ridged/hard tail frame but has the shock hidden underneath the seat. Totally different from each other.
This bike has been my goal for a long time. A lighter road king at half the price used. At the end of the day it's still a dyna so it's going to be quicker and more nimble than a RK. The only thing I've ever disliked about the Switchback is the wheels. Same wheels in Chrome or Gloss black look much better but I'd prefer to go with a less old school muscle car looking wheel all together.
Only bike I want ….I own a 2013 sportster 1200c ….I am use to bigger metric bikes like road star 1700cc but my only desire is to own a Harley and I love my sportster but I want a switchback
I had a 2006 1200c and I was thinking about getting a used Street Glide. The dealer didn't have any used streetglides other a 95 police edition. Saw the SwitchBack and fell in love. I got in and out in 40 mins. It was like going from a yugo to a caddy
Had mine now for well over a decade and it’s never missed a beat, amazed at its reliability.

Nice review Hegshot. Brilliant bike. Very much overlooked. Love mine.
First upgrade on my 2012 were the headlight and riding lights. Fitted Truckmall LEDs. Easy to fit, look great and lights up brilliantly.
I've owned a 2012 Switchback for 4 years and absolutely love it. I'm 5-8 160 pounds and it fits me perfect.
What changes have you made to it or wouldyoumake? There's a 2016 for sale near me that I'm very interested in. Thanks in advance.

Have a 2015 and love it..
Gettin one this spring !
Nice bike I would love to have one like that
Get one. You won't be disappointed.
@@bobadams7654 I did yesterday 😉
@@Nobody-xh5qe excellent. What year? Mileage?
Thanks for the video. Cool bike . Take care.
It’s not a softail, re: the 2 rear shocks.
Love my Switchback. If it had cruise control it be the oerfect bike. Light nimble and quicker then the 103 Road King

Yes we have seen that done!The spoke wheels look great.
Nice video. I love my Switch. Does it all.

Loved those!
The Twin Cams are the last of the real Harleys. The new M's sound like Hondas
It’s funny you say that cause the Honda helped design the twin cam motor 😂

I was really considering buying that bike when I was moving up from a Sportster
What’s you get instead?
@@HegshotRides I went straight to touring, 07 RK.
@@ontheothersideoftheroad I sold my rk to get this bike.
Correction to one comment you made in error. The Dyna Switchback is not a softtail, its a Dynaglide.
Dynas aren’t softails . The rear suspension is totally different
Misspoke on that one
If it has a rear end with a suspension it is a soft tail

The current Harley Heritage softail offers this versatility, bags and windshield are quick detach, and it rides nicer than the switchback.
Looks like Street Bob bars..?!

It's not a softail. It's a Dyna Switchback
Only softails had counterbalancers… dynas and touring bikes never did.
I have 5
Its not a softail!
