What was Truman's main reason for dropping the atomic bomb instead of invading Japan?

It was not "instead of", he was doing both. It is just that Japan surrendered in August 1945 after the second atomic bomb (of 23 planned atomic bombs before the end of 1945) instead of waiting for the invasion to begin in November 1945. It took time to set up the men, weapons, and supplies for the two planned invasions (November 1945 and spring 1946) while the atomic bombs were ready to use starting on August 6, 1945.

The regular bombings of Tokyo killed just as many people as the atomic bombs. The use of the atomic bombs were to motivate the Japanese populous to demand the Emperor and the Military stop the war.
