When I saw the Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight for the first time parked outside a hotel in the Phillippines, I admired it for a few minutes. I really wanted to buy it, but when I took it for the test ride, my experience was not that good. I am 6'2", and this bike fits smaller riders better. I know that forwards are important in the cruiser market, but anyhow I'm not too fond of this concept in the Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight. The 16" rear and front wheels give the bike vintage military sort of feel, but they take a toll on the performance and handling of the bike.
