Honda Fury

[Tmall]

I'm with marko.

If I wanted a Harley, I'd buy a Harley. Not a clone.

Would have been cool to see them take it serious and drop a huge engine in it.

I like it. It looks just as good or better than any harley on the market, and minus a few very small stick on badges nobody would ever know you were riding a honda

The funny thing for me is that they are comparing it to bikes that cost $30,000+. Motorcyclist did a comparo with this bike against a Big Dog that cost $35,000, ummm this bike cost $12,000. They're like, I don't like the fender, gauges, whatever. I'm thinking, for $22,000 you can do whatever the fuck you want to this bike and still buy the wife a bike to boot! I guarantee you that this bike will never have the problems that some Big Dogs have. Considering the fact that it's shaft-drive, maintenance will be changing oil for at least the first 10-20,000 miles, depending on what tires are on it and how you drive. I think it's a great chopper-esque bike for someone who doesn't want to work on them.

I agree, and as far as engine size Honda's market research indicated that 1300cc's way the preferred engine. Time will tell how this project turns out but I think it's a cool bike.

I'd be surprised if it does well. They are introducing it on the back end of this 'chopper' fad.

Now that's a good point! It'll probably be another Rune, especially if all the mags dog on it!

It's getting good reviews from what I read. Solid engine and typical Honda. Complaints seem to be too much plastic covers. It just looks typical to me. And the way I see it the chopper craze is all but over.

You think if you wanted to buy a sportbike, you would of bought a sportbike and not a cheap clone either. Couldn't resist.

*spew !!* Ok that was an awesome comeback !!

This bike looks good for a Honda imho. I would want a bigger motor though.

If I was going to buy a "clone" Harley I like the Star Raider and the Victory Vegas Jackpot.
