This is exactly the sort of Forty Eight that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Previously supplied by ourselves and owned by a good friend I’ve known since school, it has clearly been built and maintained with care rather than simply modified for the sake of it. The huge custom specification includes Vance & Hines Short Shots, Stage 1 tuning, custom upholstered sprung seat, short rear end conversion, custom LED lighting, lever-mounted front indicators, drag bars, whitewall tyres and a beautifully painted tank, creating a bike that stands out for all the right reasons. Rarely do you find one finished to this standard, in this condition, and still available for a fraction of the original build cost. Please take the time to study the photos closely.
The Forty Eight remains one of Harley-Davidson’s most characterful models, combining classic styling with an easy-going riding position and plenty of V-twin personality. This particular example delivers all of that while offering the reassurance of careful ownership, sensible mileage and recent professional ECU remapping, making it a bike that can simply be enjoyed from day one.
Keys/Docs: 2 Keys, service book, owners manual.
Service History: Mileage related service history, recent full ECU remap by Harley main agents and will undergo our in-house pre-delivery inspection prior to sale, with all fluids checked and changed appropriately.
With 35+ years in the industry, we know what a good used bike looks like — and how it should be presented. All bikes are described and shown honestly. They are used motorcycles, not new, and will show light signs of use consistent with age and mileage — as you’d expect in the real world. If you’re expecting a brand-new finish, a new bike is the right option.
If you’re buying from a distance, every bike is listed with 40+ high-quality images and a detailed walkaround video, so you can see exactly what you’re getting and make an informed decision before proceeding.

We operate on an appointment-only basis. If you’re looking to purchase a bike and would like to confirm it’s as expected before you proceed, please get in touch to arrange a suitable time.
Please Note: Due to modern microphones and thousands of moving mechanical parts, sound quality within the video is in no way a true representation of the actual real-time noise of the bike. In real-time, all our bikes sound precisely as they should. We strongly advise, for the best sound experience, please view the bike personally.
