We all have different tastes. I bought an 01 Heritage classic new in 01. I liked the bike but sold it within one year and bought a BMW R 1150 RT. I kept that bike (an 02) till about 3 months ago and bought a Sportster (used 05) 1200 C and feel in my case I have finally found my bike. It ads a certain "fun factor" (attitude) that seemed to have been missing there for several years.

One of each wouldn't be bad though.

My son has a XL1200C and sometimes when we go on rides I ride it(when he lets me). Dem Sportsters got some power.
