Harley releases new Forty-Eight Sportster
February 13, 2010
Check out this promo video from the new Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight, a blacked out version of the Sportster 1200 with the (peanut) tank of a Sportster 883. This is the latest addition to the Dark Custom series for 2010.
Among the riders in the video are pro skateboarders Heath Kirchart, Leo Romero and Brian ‘Slash’ Hansen. All these guys have been riding for multiple years.
Both Heath and Leo have been on the Wild Ride, a motorcycle/skateboard tour organized by their shoe sponsor Emerica. Heath Kirchart is pretty much the leader of the pack and always rides with a big American flag on his bike (during the Wild Ride).
Emerica even made an shoe for the skateboarders that also ride a motorcycle by combining a boot with a skate sneaker. It was sold in 2008 and was called the Shifter.
Check out more on the Wild Ride on the Emerica website (or search on YouTube).
