2015 Harley-Davidson XL1200X - Sportster Forty-Eight, Authentic Styling Fat Front Wheel: A beefy front end with a tall, fat MT90 tire gives the Forty-Eight® model a grounding visual equal to that of a 1950 Mercury. Custom rubber reminiscent of the lead-sled culture. A dominating presence up front that provides a smooth ride and solid handling. Slammed Handlebar, Speedo and Under Mount Mirrors: The slammed black drag-style handlebar with speedo and under mount mirrors adds to the stripped down, minimal look of the Forty-Eight® motorcycle. Inspired by the way hot rod pioneers used to slam their rides, the drag style handlebar is an old-school garage feature that demands a forward, aggressive riding position. Clean Rear End Styling: When the look is fast and smooth, details count and clutter doesn t make the cut. We carefully crafted the rear end with retro-styled Stop-Turn-Tail lights and a side-mounted license plate to leave the fender surface clean and uncluttered for an authentically raw, custom look. And while the lamps may look old-school, it's their new-school engineering that keeps things clean, packing stop, turn and running beams into each bullet. Classic Peanut Fuel Tank: First appearing on a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle back in 1948 and providing the inspiration for the Forty-Eight® model name the small 2.1 gallon tapered peanut fuel tank holds strong today with its traditional styling and modern attitude. A low, powerful bulldog look that gives way for showcasing more engine, the peanut fuel tank is attitude and looks all balled up into one. Hard Candy Custom Paint: Hard Candy Custom paint is a large metal flake finish that s more than just paint job, it s a shining declaration of independence bright, bold and unique. The Sportster® Forty-Eight® is available in Hard Candy Custom Cancun Blue Flake and Hard Candy Custom Big Red Flake. Recalling the iconic rebel styling of 70s custom bikes, Hard Candy Custom paint marks another milestone in The Motor Company s legacy of innovation. We start with several passes of 200 micron flake over a black base, then clear coat it, hand-lay the graphics, and apply the many layers of clear coat to allow the flake to shine through. It s a painstaking process that delivers a premium custom look straight from the factory, so you can start flying your colors with no waiting or extra effort. Iconic Engine Evolution® Engine Heritage: The Evolution® engine known in certain crowds as the Blockhead was first bolted to the frame of a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle back in 1984. Born from legendary Shovelhead and Ironhead engines, the Evolution® engine broke new ground in displacement innovation while maintaining the hunger for power, durability and proven reliability that The Motor Company was built on. Evolution® Engine Innovation: Air-cooled and durable as hell, the 1200cc Evolution® engine is yet another nod to the unwavering work ethic that
