Take a Demo ride at any dealership ask to ride all the different types. Then go to different dealership and do the same thing. Here a site to help get started.

Same basic bikes, frame, suspension, engine and transmission are the same. Basic differences are ride height (Street Glide is lowered) fairing vs windshield, radio or no radio.
All HDs are EFI no carbs anymore.

Best thing to do is test ride them or better yet rent one for a whole day and go put some miles on it to be sure.

If what you are asking is the difference between the 2009 and 2010 models, then the answer is the only significant change is the helical cut fifth gear on the 2010. I guess the MoCo got tired of listening to everyone bitch about it. All bikes for at least the last several years are EFI. You don't get a choice...

Oh, and you haven't been able to get a carb on a FL bike since 2006.
