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.
