That's a good way to put it.
The weight tranferrence feels a little different on a softail (or at least a Springer vs a WideGlide). When on his and accelerating It felt as if the bike and I were going forward together moving me towards the front end making it feel top heavy.
On my Dyna, the torque plants me in the seat and gives me a good center of gravity.
And the difference when hitting bumps was night and day. Could be because of the Springer front end though. Wasn't nearly as much give as my DWG.

I went through the same delemia.
All my friends ride soft tails (customs fat boys and night train)
I rode them all and loved them all .They just felt alittle top heavy to me.
The dyna it felt like I was sitting in the bike not
on it,that is the best way I can explain it.
good luck with your decision.
