10: Harley Davidson Forty-Eight
To be honest, you could probably put virtually any Harley in this slot, and that’s not a criticism. We’ve picked the Forty-Eight because this list is about retro bikes, which means things like performance or equipment levels aren’t really part of the equation. The Forty-Eight has the all-important element of authenticity, although an Iron 883 – the cheapest bike in the Harley range – would also be decent choice. Even if you’re in the anti-Harley crowd, the appeal of these bikes in terms of their style isn’t hard to see.
