Harley-Davidson XL 1200 X Forty-Eight

The 2011 Harley-Davidson XL1200X Forty-Eight maintains its distinctive style and character from the previous year. Its 1201.3cc engine produces 107.0 Nm of torque at 4000 rpm, providing plenty of low-end power for quick acceleration and a satisfying riding experience. The engine's classic Harley-Davidson rumble and strong torque make it a joy to ride around town. The low 660mm seat height and forward controls contribute to the bike's laid-back riding position. Weighing 247.2 kg, the Forty-Eight feels solid and stable on the road. A defining feature is its iconic 7.95-liter peanut fuel tank. While visually appealing, the small fuel capacity limits the bike's range, making it best suited for shorter rides and urban cruising. The 5-speed gearbox provides smooth and reliable shifts. The front suspension features 39mm forks, and braking is handled by a single front disc brake with a dual-piston caliper. Designed for riders who value style and a minimalist aesthetic, the XL1200X Forty-Eight stands out with its low-slung profile, fat front tire, and signature peanut tank. It's a head-turning motorcycle that's perfect for cruising around town and making a statement. While its limited fuel range may not be ideal for long-distance touring, it's a fantastic choice for riders who want a cool and iconic Harley-Davidson with a classic bobber look.
