Default What Softail do you ride?

I just wanted to see how many people ride what and to see which is more popular. Comments welcome.

That's a low blow to the Rocker guys putting them on the list but I guess that's better than leaving them off.

FX Springer for me. Not sure how others feel about this but general "Heritage" and "Springer" cats contain two models each.

I like to ride my 05 Springer. I wouldn't mind riding the Springer Classic, but I chose the other model instead.

I forgot about the Rocker situation. My bad for the ones who have them on hold.

Deuce for me.

I think the fatboy will be the most popular.
When i bought my bike i went to the dealer to buy a fatboy, then i saw the deuce.
In my opinion the fat boy, duece, and the night train are the best softails.
Everyone has different tastes though.
