Pros Cons of Triumph Street Twin

Pros

  • Torque-friendly motor
  • Comfortable ergonomics
  • Sharp brakes

Cons

  • Slightly expensive
  • Lacks sixth gear
  • Can run a little hot in the city

Verdict

The Triumph Street Twin is priced at ₹ 7.45 lakh and at that price, the kind of performance and quality that you get is perhaps best in class. There is a marked improvement in the riding characteristics of the new Street Twin as well. With the addition of more power, new features and upgraded suspension, the value-for-money quotient is even higher. If you are in the market to buy a modern classic, then the Street Twin should definitely feature on your list.

Pros Cons 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.
