The 2014 MY Harley Davidson Switchback is a modern version of classic cruisers. With a timeless look, it can easily be transformed from a touring machine to a boulevard cruiser, thanks to its detachable windscreen and soft saddlebags. It sports the proven, 1690cc, air-cooled Twin Cam 103 engine, which produces a gut-churning 126 Nm torque at 3500 rpm. Laden with lots of chrome, as a classic cruiser should be, MoCo's attention to detail is evident in its cast aluminium wheels inside the full wrap fenders, the chromed out headlamp nacelle and the mini, ape-hanger handlebars.
Comfort and handling are ensured by the adjustable, cigar tube rear shocks, the cartridge-style front fork and the lightweight build of the chassis. The two-up seat means a pillion can enjoy this machine, while the full-length floorboards help the rider spend as much time as possible in the saddle.
