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

The new Triumph Scrambler 1200 XC lives up to the Scrambler name with its true off-road, go-anywhere capability - period! At ₹ 10.73 lakh (ex-showroom), the Triumph Scrambler 1200 XC offers almost all the capability of a big adventure bike. Despite its few shortcomings, it's one capable Scrambler which can run shoulder to shoulder with any adventure bike, on any kind of terrain. That's more than one reason to give it a go, and maybe even include it in your garage.
