Harley Davidson 48 Midday Ride | Pure Engine Sound
I ride a 2020 Harley Davidson Sportster 48 with a Two Brothers Racing 2 Into 1 Exhaust and an Arlen Ness Monster Sucker air intake system.
I enjoy the pure engine sound that comes from the Sportster Forty-Eight and like to relive my rides from time to time. This is a POV motorcycle ride, nothing more, nothing less.
On this drive I go up to Sentinel Peak, "A" Mountain and then to my local Starbucks for iced coffee. I also do a small sound check of the TBR Exhaust. This is a fairly new addition to the 48.
Cheers and Enjoy the ride!✌️

this is the most flawless camera angle ive ever seen on one of these videos. theyre always a little too high or too low but this is the perfect setup. i dont even ride i just have to acknowledge how good this shot is.

This is sarcasm right? i don't think he goes over 3k rpm on the whole video
You're the first one I've seen on YT that rode a Sportster like a sane person! The rest of these mental cases are either lugging them unmercifully, or 'drifting' them into pieces of junk, or acting like they're on a race track trying thier best to kill themselves, (and smashing up a great bike) and overreving the hell out of them! Very refreshing. Good show. And thanks for treating a fine machine with due respect.

About two months ago I got my first motorcycle. I was set on getting a 1200cc bike. Sadly, due to covid and a rough couple years, my credit was shot. I didn’t have a lot of bargaining room. The first bike I saw was the 48, the exact one you seem to be riding here. The payments on it were just too high, I couldn’t pull the trigger on it. I settled for an 883, which I’m not sad about because it’s been a fun ride and I’m happy either way with it. With all that said, I’m already wanting to get that extra power. Planning on the conversation kit months down the line (when I can afford it). Thank you for the video. Beautiful ride. Be safe out there.

The only time I rode a bike in my life was in driving school to get my driver's license. Never did it again for a lot of reasons, some of them being the fact that a motorcycle here in Brasil, specially a Harley, costs a house, but I won't rest until I do exactly what you did in this video. Not only I cheer you for this experience of yours but I thank you as well for remembering me of my goal. Good rides for you, bro. Take care.
