Welcome aboard Humper.
I'm biased but I'd say get the bike!
If more performance is your bag (though I doubt you'll need it) then mods are really cheap compared to the H-D equivalent - MUCH cheaper I believe.
You'll have a good bike that stands out from the usual line of bikes, it will be a genuine rideable bike and you'll have money in your pocket ... that is until you discover Brent's site
Ride safe.
