I may have missed this, but do you plan on hauling a passenger? If so, my wife says our B has the most comfortable passenger setup she's ridden. Also, I understand your desire for classic styling and the v-twin's rumble. I still think about what could have been if I pulled the trigger on a H-D Heritage Soft Tail. If I had to make the decision again, I'd get the B. It's just so quick and smooth.
