Several years ago (2008?) I test rode a used Sportster and a new Dyna (FXR successor), back to back on highway 101 in Camarillo. Not much difference between the two, just accelerating and cruising. Would have been different in the canyons. Weight feels lower than CB. Acceleration similar, if the CB not reved past 6K RPM.
In respect to handling and performance. I love the way my CB handles and the power as great and smooth as silk. I have never really been interested in Harley's but I like the look and design of the FXR2. The one the dealer has here is very pretty and I like the riding position. Since it is a 99 with about 7,500 miles I have been tempted to buy it, maybe as an alternative to the CB. I doubt I will do it since the new 2014 I should be getting in a couple of weeks is priced a little less.
