And the MoCo just introduced PINK sidewall tires.  Possibly 'limited time only'.  You can't make this chit up.  har.  spyder

Bonsoir mes amis des Etats Unis,
J'aimerais avoir votre avis sur les couleurs 2012, l'un d'entre vous as t'il eu la chance de les voir de près?
En fait je suis asser deçu par les nouveaux coloris.....
Le seul modèle qui me plairais c'est celui-ci.
Merci aux chanceux qui les ont vu de me donner votre avis.

Good evening my friends in the United States.
I would like to have your opinion on the 2012 colors, one of you as you he had the chance to see them closely?
In fact I am disappointed by the new colours asser...
The only model who dislike me this is it.
Thanks to the lucky who saw them give me your opinion. :orange: :orange: :orange:

Certainly they hit the nail on the head as far as marketing goes... It is definitely built for riders (both men & women) who feel a touring bike with hard bags is just too heavy for them to handle.

The point of my observation was that the MoCo went cheap on this bike... The wheels and all the casings would have looked much better in chrome IMHO, and would not have increased the price that much.  It is similar to the EG Standard with all kinds of brushed/polished parts rather than chromed.  I would suspect that the ones who purchase this bike will get busy chroming it up but some of the parts will be too expensive to do and they may realize buying a Deluxe and putting hard bags on would be a better way to go.  Both bikes weigh the same, but the Deluxe's seat height is 2" lower, has a bigger tank, has a 2-tone paint option AND has way more chrome!

I'm sure they will sell many of these Switchbacks due to the size and hard bags coming standard - great idea!  But if anyone asks for my opinion, I will be suggesting that they look hard at a Deluxe with all of the chrome it already has.  If they want hard bags, spend the money on dual pipes and painted-to-match bags as a friend of ours did... Very cool looking bike indeed!

I think the MOCO built a nice one 3 years ago. It's called FXDSE2.

Not a CVO, but I recently saw a 2012 Dyna Switchback at a dealership and was not impressed...

I realize the market that this bike is targeted at and they are attempting to keep the price down, but I feel they really went cheap on this model.

How about everyone else?

The wife rides a Road Kind and before that a Deluxe but when she got this edition of HOG she actually liked it.  She won't trade in her King but I see women 5'6" and below as well as some men really going for this one.

BTW it looks "redder" than it is
that paint is very very Orange...

Inner faring is all Orange, I think
I'd have a problem looking at it all day, JMO
It'd look better black or two tone again JMO
