Will got to take the bike out for a little while yesterday. Sure was great weather. Sure was a lot smother than the Wide Glide. Handle really good to me. Cornering was much better. Just have to get us to the running boards. I just have some issue with picking my feet up to get them on the boards. Not use to that yet but will in time. I do like the Slim and will ride it a lot more with time and weather getting better.
I test drove a slim once, and it does handle the twisties good. The salesman told me it was the lowest HD on the market (2013). It was a little too low for my personal preference, but it handled a lot better than my dyna superglide.
Enjoy, its a fun bike to ride, and I like the look as well.
Edit: I ended up buying my Fatboy, and it didn't take long to get used to the floorboards. I don't think I'll go back to pegs.
