Times haven't been very good for Harley Davidson recently. For example, the company is holding an auction for Buell's assets on the 28th of January 2010. However, in the middle of all this comes a little surprise from H-D. They have revealed the 2010 Forty-Eight or as well call it, the H-D 48.
The Forty Eight is based on the 1200 Platform and gets the 48 name from the 1948 H-D S-model, which was the first bike to have a peanut shaped fuel tank.
The H-D 48 sits low, has a chopped seat and yes, the small tank holds only 2.1 gallons of fuel! The 48 goes on sale just under US$11k.
