19??? Man, you have a good attitude and great description of your awesome Fury. Don't worry about 6th gear, remember 80mph is 80mph. Slow down and enjoy your sweet ride.
Put thousands of interstate miles on my '13. Up and down eastern seaboard as well as coast to coast. 55000+mi. Many at over 80mp. It never "screamed." It wanted a bigger fuel tank but it never screamed. Put a throttle boss on it and just let it roll. Got hit and totaled. Used the insurance $ to get a 2019. Doing 85-90 yesterday for several miles. NP. 6th gear would be nice but it would still want to do more once it topped out that gear as well.
Yes it can do it Iam not denying that it just doesn’t feel like you’re cruising it’s more you’re mid power band (2n half to 4)vs like cruising power band (1500 to 2n half)
@@Aric_V Hi there, I am looking to buy a Fury at some stage; just need to know how bad the handlebar vibration is at 80 to 90mph. I'm an older guy and the vibration on my Indian Scout at those speeds (legal on the highway here in South Africa 😁) is not good on my wrist
I’d almost look for something with a full dress it’s not gonna be horrible but at those speeds you’re gonna want a sixth gear as well as a larger fuel cell
Poor description. Nothing wrong with 5 gears. No prob riding at 80 mph CEPT WOND NOISE This is not an Overreving screamer. Liquid cooled and low engine noise. HONDA CRUISER SHIELD good to about 60 mph. Won't do over 99 mph. Pillion seat is a 1 mile seat as you mention, but at 19 as you say, no trouble for a young butt. Been riding a Fury for 11 years. Got 2. #1 is 2010, F/No. Is 3. Got a 2016 F/No. Is 33. I knew more at 19 as a USN sailor or at leat I thought I did (young know it all) than I do at 72. 60 years Honda experience on all products including 25 years corporate. All service related. Thumbs-up to you for your presentation.
This bike is geared for local cruising and not long distance treks. Only a seasoned biker from the 70's would do a 2,000 mile trip on a chopper. ( Like me. ) Planning a long Highway trip ? Change out the rear sprocket for one with 5 less teeth. There's about. Sluggish on the take off but better RPM at 80.
Change the rear sprocket? That'll be fun on a shaft drive bike! What gets me is these kids think 6 gears give you a higher final drive! Maybe just shut up and ride!
I have a VTX 1800 R. The 1800 actually turns a few more RPMs on the highway than the 1300. Mine does not seem to be running too many RPMs cruising down the interstate it 80 or well above. I do agree with you that the fury is a very good looking bike. I do not know how much power the 1300 has.Put my 1800 has 86 hp at the rear wheel.
I have the 08 touring model and that thing will cruise at 90mph all day and can easily go more without an issue. I’ve take enough road trips to find its suit spots and its well over 80. I think it’s just the chopper frame making it not ride as well.
I hv a 2022 750 shadow just came back from a 3000 mile camp trip loaded to the hilt cruised 70 all the way no problem ,don't need any more 😀 👍 😄 I'm 81 been riding since 11 yrs old 😀 😄 😉 👍 😎 😊 😀 😄
I love the architecture real estates in the USA. It always makes me remind of the Game Last of Us. I currently own a Sportster Forty Eight. But I am willing to give the Honda Fury a chance to convince me ;).
I feel the same way with my chain drive 07 Honda shadow spirit 750. Nice bike but any ride over an hour and I’m just annoyed at the high rpm at 75+ mph
Although a 5 speed is "fine" you can see the benefit of a 6th gear if you go ride a Harley. Any big V Twin should have a 6th gear "overdrive" in America, some of us cruise 90mph over here so... Anyway my 05 VTX 1300 sits on 80-85 no prob. I love it. But it would be absolutely amazing with that 6th gear "overdrive" lol.
I like this bike alot and what the young man didn't tell you about it is all the pretty girls he's had on the back. Chick magnet for sure I have a VTX and I've had a few nice ones on mine and I'm 71 I'd love to be his age again omg. Sweet machine buddy take it easy do a lot of cruising in a small town before getting on the big road. Liked your review.
They must have geared the Fury lower because my 1300 VTX will go 80 mph all day without "screaming" at me. Maybe it's because the Fury is only 53 HP now and my VTX 1300 is 74 HP. They don't handle as well either so that's another negative reason not to get one.
80 MPH without a windshield in front of you, is going to feel like 100 after about an hour on the interstate. Slow down to 60 and just enjoy your "freedom" my dude.
The bike is factory governed as follows: 1st gear 5250 rpm = approximately 40 mph 2nd gear 5250 rpm = approximately 60 mph 3rd gear 5250 rpm = approximately 80 mph 4th gear 5000 rpm = 100 mph 5th gear 4800 rpm = 100mph Factory limited to 100. That is not screaming
The over 18k views and mostly positive feed back proves ur comment irrelevant, not once did I say it was a bad bike I actually gave it a lotta praise, now move along
I have a 2001 Honda Valkyrie 5 speed gear box, it cruises just fine. In fact it will smoke a Fury, straight line or curvy roads. You can go ride 500 miles in a day pretty easily. 5 speed transmission has nothing to do with anything. It all a matter of how high your final gear is. My Valkyrie will top out at 125 MPH, it is limited by the gearing. 5th gear cruising at 80 is 3500 RPM tops. Not sure it maybe more like 3000? The bike is very smooth. A Fury tops out at around 105 MPH I think? Just a matter of the gearing. The Fury is meant to have a lot of torque through out it's gear range. A Fury isn't meant for eating miles but I'm sure it would handle 100's of miles easily. The wind would be more the problem. Not a bike I would put a windshield on. I'm going to go test ride one. Interested in the buy one so I need to take a highway run and see what's what with that. I would not use a Fury for a road trip bike any ways. That is the land of the Valkyrie.
You total should their great bikes and because it’s a Honda so you know it’s gonna be reliable, I would buy some other pipes (if they don’t already have em) because the stock ones really don’t let that 1300 breath.

Shut tf up amateur it’s been 3/4 years since I made that video, and I’ve owned literally everywhere under the sun you clearly aren’t listening to what I’m trying to say
6 gears doesn't mean you get an extra high gear or overdrive! Final drive ratio is the same . Chain drive gives you the option of bigger sprockets, therefore taller gears. Shaft drive you can't alter. Ive done 80mph on a vt1300, its wasn't "screaming at me" but it wasn't comfortable either. When your speed limit is 55 (or 70 in my country) at 80 you're cop bait and thrashing your bike too. 45 to 60 is a lot more sensible and way easier on both bike and rider. You'll work it out son.
I am 100% sure that he knows nothing about motorcycles, that he is a simple blogger... That he doesn’t even understand what kind of engine this is and what five gears are... The engine screams at him because he doesn’t understand about motorcycles🙈
Just to clarify I’m not saying the bike won’t do 80 I’m saying I wish that it had a 6th gear to drop the rpms while doing so
19??? Man, you have a good attitude and great description of your awesome Fury. Don't worry about 6th gear, remember 80mph is 80mph. Slow down and enjoy your sweet ride.

The 1312 makes around 58hp at the back wheel and around 75 at the crank. Respectable, but Torque is where these engines excel.
great taste, that's exactly how id do my fury. blue and chrome
That 1300 engine is relaxed at 80, I have reached 125, it sounds hard and seems to be forced, but no, it is designed to cruise at 80 miles
I disagree I really wish it had a 6th gear I think it’d help I think just dropping the rpm down a little bit would help a lot
I have the 08 touring model and that thing will cruise at 90mph all day and can easily go more without an issue. I’ve take enough road trips to find its suit spots and its well over 80. I think it’s just the chopper frame making it not ride as well.

subbed! u seem like a great person
Thank you for being number 100 mah brotha
It makes no diff it is in 5th or 6th. Its top speed. Its the spread of the power over 5 or 6. Unless it is a specific over drive like some cars of old

Only one other person in this comment section got what I was actually trying to say and you aren’t one of them
He's saying the rpms at 80mph are too high and feels like the bike is working too hard. It doesn't feel like it's cruising but is racing.
Get you a FSD Exhaust , and if you want too splurge Sumo-X 250 rear end kit . Check mine out to get a idea
I’m bout to buy one this weekend same color 2012
How many miles mi amigo
