I got the WG.
But I heard that the Softails are more comfy. Never rode one myself. I just always wanted a WG.
Softail Custom has the apes too!

Wifey hates the Sporty. She said it doesn't feel stable for two up, doesn't take bumps well and its narrow. She won't ride with me anymore because of it. She personally loves the look of softails, but the wide glide got her attention. She liked the apes

Perhaps you could tell us why you want to move from the XL?

RE: Making the switch to Dyna
I haven't seen anywhere where he says he wants to ride 2-up most of the time. And a dyna is perfectly capable of 2-up anyway, especially if not "all the time", unless they are both "elephants".
Here's a suggestion, go buy the dyna you want and let her ride the sporty...

RE: Making the switch to Dyna
I'm in the "get a RoadKing" camp. I currently own a Dyna, Sporty and a RoadKing and for two up riding, which they will all do, the RoadKing does it best. If the majority of your riding is two up it will be hard to beat a RK it in this regard. Good luck with your decision.

It won't be most of the time by any means, but I want her to feel comfortable enough to want to ride. The RK would prolly be the bike of choice, however they get a little pricy. She has shown zero interest in riding on her own, so Ima trade the Sporty to keep payments low.
