About this model
About the Harley Davidson Sportster Forty-Eight
The Harley-Davidson Sportster Forty-Eight (XL1200X) is a bobber-style cruiser produced from 2010 to 2020. The engine is an air-cooled 1202 cc Evolution V-twin producing 66 hp and 101 Nm of torque. The model is defined by its peanut fuel tank of just 7.9 litres, a nod to the tank Harley used in the 1940s, paired with minimalist bobber styling, drag bars and a low 710 mm seat height. In 2018 the Forty-Eight Special was added as a premium variant with a larger matte tank and extra chrome. Production ended in 2020 when Harley replaced the entire Sportster line.
The Forty-Eight attracts riders who prefer low, stripped-back bobber style over long-distance comfort. The 7.9-litre fuel tank limits range to around 150 km, making frequent fuel stops necessary. The low-bar, mid-controls position is sporting for a cruiser. It suits experienced riders; it is not eligible for A2-licence riders. Direct competitors are the Indian Scout Bobber and Honda CMX1100 Rebel.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
- Check the small peanut tank (7.9 l) for dents and internal corrosion; a damaged tank can disrupt fuel delivery.
- Inspect the primary chain and compensator for wear: cold-start rattling is a well-known complaint on Sportster engines.
- Check the primary drive gears for wear on bikes that have seen heavy urban use.
- Assess the rubber isolators in the engine-mounting system: broken isolators cause noticeable vibration transmitted directly to the frame.
- Check the rear tyre sizing; the narrow swingarm leaves little room for non-standard tyres; look for non-OEM modifications.
