Default If you could own one of each in the HD family, which one???

Hello all, just wanted to start a fun thread. Like the title says, if you had the ability to get one of each in the HD lineup which model would you get? For me it would be the following:

Sportster: Forty eight-volcanic candy orange. I love the fat tire nostalgic look it has to it.

Dyna: The new low rider in vivid black, it has a nice look to it, and with the front dual disc and 103 engine it looks like a fun bike to ride.

Softail: This one is tough, because this family has a lot of great choices. I would go with either the slim or deluxe. Both have the nostalgic feel to them which I love.

Touring: Well I have a street glide special, so I am kind of partial to that. But I would get a road king with the white walls if I could.

CVO: 2012 Road Glide the maple or the skunk, either or.

Okay, so I am splitting hairs here because the OP did not state "current" HD lineup.

With that caveat it would be first year production Knuckle (1936), last year production Panhead (1965) and last year production Shovelhead (1984). And yes there were Shovels that were registered in 1985 to fulfill police orders but it is a general consensus that 1984 ended the Shovel era.

Sportster: Not interested in owning another one. I bought a new 2005 883C and traded it a month after purchase. Too small.

Dyna: 05 or older Wide Glide. IMHO, the best looking bike HD ever made.

Softail: I have an 06 Heritage Classic and 05 Softail Standard I'm happy with both.

Touring: Tossup between Ultra Classic and Street Glide. Would lean toward Ultra because of tour pack and lowers

V-rod: not interested

CVO: overrated over priced

Sportster: 72
Dyna: happy with my SuperGlide, maybe new LowRider
Softail: Heritage Softail Classic, maybe even with Springer fork
Touring: Ultra
V-Rod + CVO : not interested, would rather sell and get a Road King to add to the Ultra and a FatBoy to add to the Heritage

Sportster 48. Love the looks.

Dyna Street Bob. Have it. Love it.

Softtail Deluxe. Reminds me of old tail finned cars from the 50's and 60's.

Road King Classic.

I would love the Vrod Nightrod
Dyna Lowrider

I would even take a Street 750. Just to see.
