With its dark custom style, throwback ‘70s fuel tank, muscular attitude and fat tyres on 16-inch wheels, the 48 Special is the single-seat bike that looks customised straight off the showroom floor. With its 1200cc motor producing 98Nm of torque, there’s plenty of grunt on tap and it’s one of the lightest Harley-Davidson models around.
