Pros

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.

The Triumph Thruxton R looks great, sounds great and it's so much fun to ride. Practicality and trackside bragging rights about power output figures may well take a back seat because the clean café racer lines and a decent list of features, coupled with a delightful engine make this a beautiful motorcycle worthy of your garage. The steep asking price maybe a problem and the availability as well.
