Welcome from South Florida. You will find this site invaluable, especially if you perform your own wrenching. I joined the site last January and it's been a tremendous asset in transforming my stock Fatboy to this.

Go with the Fatboy.

I like them both but the night train only came in a soft tail.

I know...I wanted a sporty, then rode a dyna, then rode a fatboy. FB wins for me. Depends on the ride you are looking for. FB was smooth. Hope to pick up my FB very soon.

Welcome to the forum. Both are great choices. My opinion is that if you plan on riding more in city vs long distance, the Dyna is a perfect choice.
