Kind of embarrassing to admit, but the main reason I like them is because they're essentially a 1964 ElectraGlide with improved frame, improved forks, improved front and rear suspension, fuel injected 103 motor and a six speed.

The perfect mix of old and new!

Yeah, basically. Really though, size wise, weight, and equipment all considered, the Harley Switchback is probably the closest thing to a 60's era Glide.

Pretty much. The downside of the Switchback is that it's touring "style", but no touring frame.

See yuz tomorrow, doc!
