Went to my HD dealer today to firm up my Night Train order and had a good look around at all the current models. Thing is I really liked the Deuce, and for my 6ft7in frame, it has more room. I feel a bit guilty now and the Deuce is a lot more expensive. Need to look at colour options so any links to photos appreciated.
That is going to be a tough decision, as those are my two favorite bikes!! I chose the Night Train as I liked the rear fender and the massive amounts of black. The two are almost identical in their specs. If you choose Compare Motorcycles on the HD website you can veiw their specs side by side....
I looked at the deuce myself and truly didnt think it was as sharp or as appealing as the night train so I went with the train,,I also like the wide glide but couldnt find any 2003's for a good price so I stuck with the train and have not regretted it one bit yet.I am 6'6 and weigh 266 and my train brung me up the interstate today 90+ with more than half a throttle left,,I dont normally do that but I just passed my break in period today and had to try her out,,,all I can say is wow what a ride!!!!!!
When I was deciding on which Softail I was going to get I looked at the Deuce. It's a nice bike, but the Train is just so MEAN looking. It's ME to a "T"!
Spie... Night Train and Deuce... my favorite two Softails. Well, the Heritage is up there as well. Tough call. However, I'm 6'5" and the finest Harley for longer legged riders is the Dyna Wide Glide. Not just my favorite Dyna, but my favorite H-D. Have you given it a look? Longest forward controls. Nice in the bike feel. Mini-apes. Great rubber mounted engine with a little more ooomph than the Softails. Has the FX frame like the Softails you're looking at. Also... costs less.
Another one that got the night train, but for me the springer was the "other girl". Would I cheat. HELL YEAH, but I would always go back to the train. I never really considered the deuce, not my style. Of course I met up with a riding buddy who has a deuce and loves it. (probibly hates mine)
