just rode my buddys 06 st springer home cause i forgot my keys at home. they look cool ride ok dont shake at stop lights but man they are slower, rev slower and feel heavier than&nbsp\\; my dyna. as soon as i got on mine i hauled *** home man i love my dyna.

 

&nbsp\\;Just keep forgetting your keys at home and ride your buddys Softail. You could save alot of gas money that way.

 

I don't notice the shaking at stoplights... I've ridden a few softails before but still prefer my lowrider.

 

Nah!!
&nbsp\\;
Ride the FXR someday.....1982-1994 and 1999-2000 models. These beat the Dyna and Softail both.
&nbsp\\;
Quiet possibly the best bike Harley ever manufactured...."EVO powered FXR"

 

before getting my WG and buddy and I both rented models... me the WG, him some Softy of some sort.
Half way through the day we swapped bikes... I pulled over after three blocks and said "gimme back that Dyna".&nbsp\\; Friggen hated it.&nbsp\\; And a Fatboy was on my shortlist, glad I had a chance to see how they felt.

 

Good thing harley makes so many different models otherwise we would all be bitching about how bad our rides are.

 

Same here, rode a new Heritage. The engine&nbsp\\;sound / feel&nbsp\\;is so&nbsp\\;different must be the balanced effect i suppose. Much prefer the raw thump of my Dyna, don,t think i,ll be changing any time soon.

 

rented a fatboy in Vegas, cruised around, went to the Grand Canyon etc Death Valley and the thing was ace plodding in a straight line but woefull handling and flat power wise,, you could give it the beans, everything it had and feel nothing! Anyways, glad i did it because a fatboy was #1 on my shortlist..

 

I rented a Heritage last year in Jackson Hole I tell you that needs some serious engine upgrades.&nbsp\\;

 

same motor and weighs about the same as a dyna
wonder why the big diffwerence?
