Ride both and buy the one that has the best feel. The difference in braking will not be all that great on bikes that weigh less than 650 pounds and go less than 150 MPH. The only differences are how they look (meaningless if you spend your time riding 'cause you can't see that much from the seat) and the riding position. The gunfighter seat and drag bars may look "cool", but not everyone finds them comfortable for long rides.
