Practicality due
2.6
The forty eight is an amazing looking bike and it rocks the evolution engine which are said to run for ever, HOWEVER it lacks in comfort, practicality due to no fuel gauge and small tank capacity and also horrible mileage. The forty eight also lacks power in the top end and it just refuses to go beyond 165 kmph mark stock form. Therefore anyone looking to but the forty eight must consider other better options such as the triumph bobber etc
JayaKrishna's Forty Eight gives mileage of 8 kmpl with Forty Eight variant
