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.

Verdict

For MY2022, the Kawasaki Ninja 300 is offered in three colours - Lime Green, Candy Lime Green, and Ebony. Power on the 2022 Kawasaki Ninja 300 comes from the familiar 296 cc liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine that was upgraded to BS6 emission norms. The motor develops 38.4 bhp at 11,000 rpm and 26.1 Nm of peak torque at 10,000 rpm, while paired with a 6-speed gearbox. It continues to be one of sportier 300 cc motorcycles in India.
