The 2014 MY Harley Davidson Forty-eight sports an air-cooled, 1202cc Evolution powerhouse that produces 96 Nm at 3750 rpm. It also features some state-of-the-art technologies like anti locking, upgraded brakes, a new closed loop exhaust system and redesigned ergonomic hand controls, all to make life behind the bars as easy as possible. 

On the visual side of things, the looks are dominated by a far front tire, mounted on a lace-spoked wheel, at the end of a beefy front fork. The slammed handlebars have under mount mirrors, for an authentic drag-style look, while the rear end has been kept as clean as possible. The Hard Candy Custom paint adds an one-of-a-kind touch to this machine.
