The 2012 Harley-Davidson Dyna Switchback FLD with detachable saddlebags and windshield is perfect for both cruising and touring. It’s like having two bikes in one. Its sports a contemporary look deeply rooted in classic Harley-Davidson style of the 1960s. A powerful Twin Cam 103 Engine, with smooth shifting Six-Speed Cruise Drive transmission. Its light weight chassis and cast aluminum wheels give the Switchback FLD a light-weight, easy-handling feel. Its 2-into-1 exhaust recalls classic Harley-Davidson street rod styling, as do its cigar-tube rear shock absorbers, chrome headlight nacelle, fork-covers and mini ape hanger handlebars. The Dyna Switchback FLD combines touring comfort and cruising performance in a light-weight, easy-handling powerhouse. It’s a modern version of vintage Harley-Davidson style.
