Dot...you're really considering vastly different bikes. If you really like the R bikes...you won't like any of the HD's (my guess). Why not do like so many others....get both!
I love my K1200S for cooler weather and mountain carving. The sheer power of the thing is a rush that's indescribable. I love my HD for relaxing country roads...a great hot weather bike. The comfort, feel and sound of the thing is intoxicating. Neither bike could substitute for the other.
Problem solved! Seriously...you'll get a thousand opinions. Get the bike that stirs your soul the most. Doesn't matter what anyone here says. This is a very personal decision. Your priorities for riding are different than any one elses. I've never ridden a bike I didn't like...but it took a while to understand what works for me. Look for the machine that gets under your skin and rules you. Bond with it. None are perfect, but they're all awesome!
