I'm new to the forum and looking at buying my first HD. I'm seriously considering a Forty-Eight. I've wanted a Sportster for quite a while, but the 48 really grabbed me. It reminds me of some of the cool bikes from Zero Engineering/Shinya Kimura.
[wince] I don't even have an M-license yet. My riding has been the product of youthful indiscretion and living in Germany for several years (it's legal to ride 125cc or less with an auto license there over if you're over 30). Though I left myself with an Aprilia RS125-shaped kink in my back.
I rented a V-Star 650 Classic (only cruiser they had left) on a nice vacation on Mallorca and was surprised how much I enjoyed just cruising around. Now over 10 years have past and I'm 4 years late getting myself getting myself a 48 for my 48th bday.
I am signing up for an MSF class soon. Kick my *** if I don't. Guess I'll have to rent a car for the week as I've been car-free since I moved up here to downtown Seattle. It's been a new, interesting experience but I'm really starting to itch for some wheels.
Cheers,
