Pros Cons of Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight

Pros

  • Classic H-D cruiser styling
  • V-twin engine sound

Cons

  • Small fuel tank limits range
  • Gearbox not very refined
  • Performance & acceleration

Verdict

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.

Pros Cons Harley-Davidson Fat Bob

Pros

  • Traditional styling looks great
  • Torquey motor is aggressive
  • Throaty exhaust sounds great

Cons

  • Suspension can feel stiff at times
  • A bit too heavy
  • Instrument console needs more information

Verdict

The Harley-Davidson Fat Bob is the quintessential hot-rod cruiser and it is currently on sale in India. It is a style-statement by itself and can be ridden hard too, if required. The Fat Bob offers ridiculous amounts of torque and shove and can be a decent motorcycle to ride in the city as well but on long, open highways is where it shines the brightest.
