I own a BMW K1200S (sport bike) and just a few weeks ago bought an 09 Super Glide Custom(very similar to the bike in your second pic). I can tell you, if you buy the Sporty...you'll be trading it in on the Glide within the year. With mid and forward pegs on the Glide it is significantly more comfortable and the twin cam 96 engine mated to their 6 speed gearbox is hard to beat for a slow cruiser. I also found the SGC stock buckhorn bars much more comfortable and attractive than those on the bob above. A matter of personal taste I guess. It's not a fast bike or particularly good handling...but that applies to all HD's (yes, including the V-rod). For the kind of riding you are considering, I'd recommend any of the dynas.
