BMW R nine T vs Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight Comparison

The BMW R nineT is a beautiful looking modern classic motorcycle, with a perfect blend of the classic styling of old BMW motorcycles from the 1960s with the latest technological advancements of engineering and electronics. It gets an air-cooled boxer twin engine and offers solid performance. But it is heavy and the engine tends to heat up as well. Not to mention the high cost of ownership that is required.

The Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight Special is definitely not your affordable cruiser. After all, there's a price to be paid to look uber cool and enhance your riding personality. If you're the kind of guy who wants to make a statement with your ride, and nothing short of an all-American v-twin cruiser will do, by all means take a good look at the Forty-Eight, you may end up bringing it home. Just keep in mind that it may start losing its appeal soon.
