Default Dyna vs Softail

I've owned an 03 Fatboy Anniversary for 2 years now & it's easy to ride & fairly nimble. I was thinking about adding a bike to my collection. This guy that lives about 5 minutes from my house has an 2008 HD Dyna Anniversary CVO for sale for $10k with 5123 miles on it. I absolutely love the color, all the chrome & the sound of the V&H Pipes. I took it for a 20 minute

ride & the hydraulic clutch was absolutely amazing but my hand was getting numb from the vibration... is that normal for Dyna's n 2008?

Should be just the opposite I've owned 5 Dynas all 5 were alot smoother than a Softail . None had the 110 though but I still think it should be smoother that a Softail.
I just bought a 2022 Heritage my 09 Dyna had a lot less vibration than the Heritage.

It must be the CVO 110 Screamin Eagle w/ the V&H pipes, thanks for your input, safe riding!
