Oops! Trying to think of a Softail Slim joke to counteract but that sounds kinda fruity

Remorning Woodzers! Had to cook some breakfast!

Terry after we let you last week at lunch we went over to Rubber City HD and checked out their bikes. Tonya made the comment she was tired of looking at the back of my helmet all the time so I spotted a 16 Switchback with 63 miles on the OD that I thought would fit her good and it did. Sales guy was an *** so we left and went down to Adventure in Dover which is under the same HD owner.

Long story short, we had the bike transferred to Adventure, got it for 1k less than the floor price at Rubber City and Tonya starts Rider Academy here at Triple S next weekend.

Rick, I wish I knew you were looking for one. My son has a 2012 Switchback with 2300 miles for sale. I've ridden it and they are nice bikes, shame that they discontinued them.

We werent really looking for one, we had a small discussion and she signed up for the Riding Academy. So when the dealer was willing to transfer she was fevered and hooked.

It is a nice bike and resembles a smaller version of a Road King. I think if HD made a smaller version like this of the Street Glide, it would sell immensely. She is probably going to put a Batwing on it eventually I think......

It is definitley bigger than a Sportster but not overwhelming for a new rider. Feels like a 10 speed compared to my Limited LOL

Yep..I rode it home about 55 miles the day he bought it..it was 26*. Felt like a hot rod compared to my Ultra.
