Default rigid mount vs. rubber mounted motor on H-D?

trying to decide which model to buy next the Softail has a rigid mount and the Dyna has rubber mounted motor. Both have a 96 cu. in. and 6-speed tranny. What are your ideas on this difference in mounting options?

No offense, but if you're buying a harley, vibration is the least of your worries. I'd buy the cheaper of the two and then use the extra to stock up on spare parts and extra oil.

The solid mount is for the sensory depreciated who prefer to feel their bikes vibrate, Rubber mounts are smoother.
