Harley-Davidson's Dark Custom range has a new "bulldog" in town - the Forty-Eight.
Based on the Sportster 1200, the Forty-Eight features the "peanut" fuel tank, a blacked-out and polished rubber-mounted Evolution 1200cc V-twin fuel-injected engine, under-mounted mirrors, forward foot controls, fork-mounted turn signals,
There's a dual texture solo seat with, while a pillion seat, footpegs and backrest are some of the many accessories that can be added.
The Forty-Eight's Dark Custom cohorts include the Nightster, Iron 883, Cross Bones, Fat Bob and Street Bob.
Pricing on the Forty-Eight is yet to be announced, although we do know it will go on sale in September.
"With its classic bulldog shoulders stance, the Forty-Eight strikes a distinctive look and low profile that could only come from Harley-Davidson," said Ray Drea, Harley-Davidson Senior Director of Styling. "The Forty-Eight model has a collective past life experience and broken-in look that is raw and authentic."
Colours are Vivid Black, Brilliant Silver or Mirage Orange Pearl.
