Dyna vs Sportster...which to buy
#23
Just joined this forum so sorry if this question has been asked 1000 times before.
I'm considering a new HD. I own a 2000 Sportster XL. It runs great BUT I'd just like to try something a little different, even if it's another Sportster. I know I need to test ride a new Sportster and Dyna before I decide but in the meantime I'd appreciate any input as to why I should get a Dyna vs another Sportster.....cost notwithstanding.
Here's a little background. I never ride 2 up. 99% of my riding is day trips of 100 to 200 miles, most of which is not on the super slab. I don't ride aggressively....I'm too old for that...lol.
Thanks in advance

I'm a taller guy and the laid out stretch of the Wide Glide fits me about perfectly

OP, get the Dyna and ignore anyone that says there isn't enough difference. Ride one and see for yourself.

First off the Sportster is not a girls bike as some say. I loved my Sporty and there's nothing girlie about me. I came close to grabbing a new one until I rode and bought my Heritage. It's all personal preference and whatever you like riding that's what you should get.

I'd say there's less difference between a Dyna and a Softail than a Sportster and a Dyna.
