Nightster or Forty-Eight (Harley Sportster)

Anyways like maxx says most bikes won't really be recognisable after a while.

Just start with the one that most closely resembles the one in your head....

And start down the never ending road of "customising"

I cant recognise mine sometime too.. haa.. and i sat on your bike.. dont worry.. your blackie will have a friend coming soon..

hey guys, i just came back recently from Phuket bike week with the stock 48...

...yes with that peanut tank...haha

 

 

my verdict is....

 

yes i arrived at phuket without my bone shattered. North South Highway was a pain but i enjoy incredibly on B-roads from Hatyai to Phuket.

Power is more then enuff and good cruising speed despite the forward controls are alittle tiring.

 

Only if the tank is bigger, then it would save me alot of convenience...

although i am not complaining about the frequent petrol stops which leads to more smoke breaks and butt rest too...haha

but my tour mates with bigger tanks are not as appreciative...

 

now i am back and i am looking for a sportster customs...cus its has the walnut 17litres tank and higher bars.

48 ooze characters and altitude but not really for extensive highway touring...i do it just for that been there done that mentality..

haha but no more...

If the OP is interested I am selling my 2011 48 for personal reasons.
