  • This video provides an overview of a 2013 Harley Davidson Switchback. It describes the benefits and features that make this bike a joy to ride. Features of interest include the removable hard bags and windscreen. In addition, the 103 ci engine coupled to the 6 speed transmission make it a nice mid range touring bike. Add an accessory tube and a gps holder and coffee cup holder and you are ready for the road.

    I have a 2012 switchback as well. Mine has a little over 12k miles I just purchased a rekluse clutch, flush fuel cap and LED fuel meter, new HD Speedo w tach. Can’t wait to install all of it. Oh, I’m still learning to ride too. Mid life crisis. Never rode before.

      Always watch the car's front tire at intersections, you will notice it moving before anything else. Thanks for watching and good luck with the bike!

    I bought a used 2014 switchback in blackened cayenne sunglo. Lowered front and rear, new seat, new grips, slip on cobra muffler, Led headlamp and painted the lower part of windshield black. Moved up from a 2016 sportster 1200 custom. Wanted larger engine, hard bags, 6 speeds and ABS. Had everything I wanted.

    Nice bike I bought my 2015 new mystery red in color and had to get the back rest before my wife would go for a ride since I bought it I have put more crome on it and more power in it stage one only so far kinda wish they made a trunk for this model but they don't but im sure you can modify one to fit after market but that's later enjoy it but should have bought a roadking instead its just bigger and more suited for touring longer trips but not putting it down maybe I give it to my wifeand get a bigger on for me lololol

      @BikesBoatsBivouacs  Год назад

      I had the accessory installed when I bought the bike. It hooks into my battery tender plug on the left side near the seat. It should be easy to run if you have a battery tender plug, if not then you need to pull the battery and add the connection on the battery terminals. Thanks for watching.
