They are both great bikes, any year. You just have to decide on your personal preferences for colors, handlebar style and wheel style. Neither of them have significant enough advantages over the other that you should worry about whether you got the best model. Obviously you should ride both if possible. I never got to ride my TBA before I bought it and I've never been unhappy with the choice. That said, if you want a fast bike, a really fast bike, look elsewhere, like a Rocket III or a crotch rocket. If you like a spirited but mellow ride, one of these just might be the bike for you.

Disclaimer: I didn't read all of the responses so I've likely duplicated comments made previously.
