If your going to rip around for a hour or two keep the softail. If you going to do some serious riding don't think twice about it , get the SG. Totally different suspension made for cruising+comfort. Handles just as good or better than the fatty. Take one for a ride-then decide.
+1. All depends on the types of rides you're going on.

Wow ,beautiful.
Well you guys are going to think I'm crazy for this, but if the #'s were right for me I would and will trade my 07 fatboy for a 09 SG! The reason is the SG comes with everything, yes you can turn your fatboy into a SG, like the guy in this post did " VERY NICE BY THEWAY"! , but how much $$$ would that end up being in the end? VS just buy a bike that comes with everything? I love the way my Fatboy rides, sitting low in the seat and etc. Just think a Fatboy does not look right with saddlebags, no matter what type of bags you put on it, it just doesn't look right? A heritage, SG, EG, etc they loook right. Atleast that's my opinion. I think I have made up my mind and so when the time comes I will trade for either a SG 09 or a 09 or 2010 heritage.

I first had a sporty and said I would never buy a bagger and now I have a deluxe and I am def gonna buy some bags for it.When you do any type of distance it sure is nice to have them bags and windshield.Like I said never thought I would but they really are nice to have.Go for the sg you wont be dissapointed.
I think one of the main things for me on my Fatboy, is the DAMN BLUE STRIPE ! that HD decided to do. I Like the pearl white gold paint, but they screwed it up with a lovely blue stripe. If there was a way I could remove the stripe I would. Any sugestions ?
