Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight vs Indian Scout Comparison

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.

The Indian Scout offers a compact, low-slung, beautifully designed cruiser that is a definite head turner. Straight line stability is solid, and even around corners the bike maintains composure. Only in slower speeds, the suspension feels a little stiff. For a weekend companion, and for a leisurely outing in the open road, the INdian Scout could be a good companion, but stay away from traffic!
