Ain't enough videos of the Fury on this planet! I'm glad I stumbled across yours...pure sound, what a gem. Can't wait to get mine this summer. I've got an ol Sportster collecting dust I'm finally sprucing back up so I can trade it in for a GORGEOUS Fury!
Just got mine last month, but had to wait for BRC to get my license. Deal was too good to pass up. It's my first bike ever, but have to say...love this machine. Smooth ride, good power and killer sound when you get on it. Thanks for the vid. I watched this a couple times while I waited to ride mine.
Shane Beaulieu You're welcome, friend. Thank you for watching. Happy to know that you are enjoying your Fury and are a safe, responsible rider as well. Safe riding to ya!
I have a 2016 with Cobra pipes. It's hard to describe the nirvana I feel while riding. Biggest, heaviest bike I've owned in 30 years. Feels awesome with plenty of power, easy to handle as I stand 5' 2" and weigh 150 lbs. I have a custom seat with flame stitching and a 2" push from C&C. Gets lots of looks and comments. "That's a HONDA?" My neighbors hate me when I leave for work at 3 am.
Thanks man. My bad I'm doing a ton of research. I'm comparing the fury with Vulcan and star Stryker. So far I keep leaning towards the fury. Hopefully I can get mine soon.
Oh, Buick Riviera in the mirror, nice! 2:21 Upd. I think you're -dumb- really brave, man! I am scared as hell to ride with no gloves and elbow protection. I've been misfortunate enough to see fingers torn away and elbow bones scratched (flesh open) in accidents at like 15-20 MPH speeds.
I'm getting ready to put the memphis shade faring on my fury and the shark audio system.. I like how yours speakers r tucked behind the faring.. what did you use to mount yours like that
I don't know what town it is. But as soon as I saw the stop sign at the end of the on ramp, I knew it had to be W. Penn. I mean, how are you supposed to merge safely with traffic if you have to come to a complete stop first. Especially onto I-70 (for example). BTW...Love the bike. I am on my 2nd vtx 1300 and have been looking at the fury recently.
So I picked up the bike yesterday - shocked by its size! It's massive! Rode almost 420 miles from Brevik, Telemark to Trondheim, Sør-Trøndelag (Norway) over night. It was exhausting and COLD, but the bike was perfect. The rumble from the Vance and Hines pipes caught a few stares :D Boarded a cruise liner in Trondheim and taking the sea route the rest of the way. The bike rests in the vehicle parking deck and I'm having a couple of pints in the bar - cheers! Looove my new bike - you were absolutely right.
johsdahl That is so great to hear johsdahl! Thank you for sharing. I am so happy you love this machine as I do. I wish you and yours many more safe miles my friend! I drink to you and your new bike! Cheers!
Thank you. Pipes are Freedom Performance brand and model is Sharp Curve Radius. Yes the fairing will work on aftermarket bars. It's actually mounted to the forks with a quick clamp setup that's really easy to install and is super durable.
Thanks buddy. I have actually had a bunch of people ask me if I am from PA after watching a video I made. I still am not sure what makes it so recognizable.
The two speakers mounted to my risers that you can see between the fairing and speedo. They are powered by an amp mounted under my seat. If I don't use the marine speakers I connect to my helmets bluetooth speakers/mic.
painedinks Thank you. Can't remember the site ATM I bought it from but it's Memphis Shades Bullet fairing. I mounted the speakers to the handle bars and hid the amp next the battery.
1:46 im confused why is the line for the red light SOOO far back from the light? is there a fire station near by or what am i missing? anyways awesome bike
I've got a quick question for you what kind of MPG do you get on it if you ever checked it out? Nice bike by the way. Trying to convince my wife to get one for my self
It depends. When I ride conservatively I might get 130-140 miles out of a tank of gas. Some days when I'm ripping through gears I might only get 80 or so. I have not ran out of gas yet so I can't say for sure exactly.
Matt G They will but I really have to be leaning a lot. Seems to mostly happen on most those highway ramps with a tight loop almost all the way around. I appreciate the positivity👍🏻
Been Ridin H-D all my life...I'm 42 this year but this bike keeps catching my eye....Wondering if I would be comfortable riding this Honda?? I'm not shallow or call people wanna b's...just hear it way to often. Wanna b what anyway????? Its about RIDING a cool bike ain't it!?!? (Lookin for help making a purchase decision)
Any bike is gonna get tossed a bit passing a large vehicle at highway speed. Weather you have a problem doing so or not depends on your skills as a driver. As for myself and this bike I don't really think about it or notice it much.
hey im lookin into buying a fury, and i noticed you have aftermarket exhaust with a sound system...does your exhaust drown out the sound or can you hear pretty good?
Austin Olson If I am just cruising down the highway or around town at a reasonable speed I can enjoy music at any volume just fine. It does not get drowned out. Now, if I am ripping through gears at high speed during a windy day, then yes it does get muffled. The Memphis Shades Bullet Fairing did make a big difference in sound quality for me though considering it directs and amplifies the speakers sound toward my ears.
one more question i have is how is the comfort quality...has it seemed the seat has diminished over a long time, or can you still go on those 2-3 hour rides and be just peachy?
Austin Olson For as flat as the seat is it is really comfortable. Its wide in the cheek area and tapers down a lot in the front. I can ride all day with no problem.
+Don Maxon Awesome. How do you like the Raw? Good airflow, easy to see, comfortable? And yes, PA is a beautiful place to ride, especially out in the country! We sure live in a gorgeous state!
mike johnson www.denniskirk.com You will need to purchase the fairing and also the mounting bracket. They are sold separately. www.denniskirk.com/memphis-shades/bullet-fairing.p233741.prd/233741.sku
+Don Maxon it would be cool if you could put some specs in the description of your aftermarket stuff. I'm a new rider and not really sure where to start with market items let alone aftermarket. but thanks for getting back to me.
The stock pipes were pretty much straight pipes. They had some noise canceling mufflers on the ends though. I don't doubt you can find a aftermarket set straight pipes if you want. I have seen a clutch assist made by a guy on vtxcafe.com for Honda 1300's www.vtxcafe.com/showthread.php/27631-Clutch-assist-from-Glens-Garage
+Don Maxon cool. Would you be able to tell me the length of that end to end? I'm trying to find out the widest part of the bike. And of course I assume the foot peds don't stick out further than the bars. I'm trying to see if the space I have to park will accommodate the fury. Thanks man.
+Kenny C I would say the length of this bike is somewhere between 8 and 9 feet. It's 6 feet from the center of the each wheel to the other. I would say from handlebar end to end is 3
+Zeus Razor If you have no experience on a motorcycle, you should start out with a 250 or 600. Maybe 750 at most. No ones first bicycle was a mountain bike. If you plan on learning on a bigger bike you more than likely hurt yourself or someone else
Eli Bhatti It was, surprisingly. Considering I learned on my own how to ride a motorcycle on that 750 Shadow. Never had a single motor powered bike before that.
This was music to my ear. I now feel particularly frustrated to be 4''11 and 105 pounds. Does it really weigh nearly 700 pounds + saddle height of 27 inches, because I might cry? Is there anything else than the Rebel 250 on this planet for me?
Yeah there is!! I'm not a huge Harley fan but a Harley sportster would fit you. And they look badass too. Or even try a 883 from them as well. Badass bike and for a smaller rider
+Brett Schmidt Yeah, they do! The Sportster is way too high (seat height is nearly 32'') and way too heavy (550 lbs), though. I sat on a small CBR 125 and it was 30'', and the only things that could touch the ground were my tippy toes of only one foot . And the guy had to hold the bike cause it was too heavy for my tippy toes haha. This 125 is only 320 lbs. So I stand no chance with the Sportster! I also sat on a Honda Shadow, which is 26.7'' of seat height (if I remember well), like the Rebel, but way too wide and heavy as well! But a few days ago, I concluded a transaction with a man selling his Rebel 250 (1985) - custom, and I must say: Although it has no torque, I feel much safer with both of my feet touching the ground. And I had no problem with the weight since I had more than my tippy toes to handle the 320 lbs. But I am still keeping my Spyder ST for my road trips, so I don't mine having a weak 250 cc bike for city rides! I've had very good feedback for the Rebel. When I get bored on the street with my Rebel 250, I'll still have my 1000 cc Spyder ST for adrenaline, that will save me from getting bored!
+Jenny Champagne I'm 5'8". I put canella risers on and moved the forward controls 1 1/2" back and 1" up. Handles like a dream. Try a Yahama Bolt- great bike, many mods available
+Frederick Sparks I so wish I could handle a 550 lbs bike (mostly this one), but it's way too heavy for me! The Honda Shadow weighs about the same and I could not even move anything while seating on it. It was pathetic to witness the whole thing...and actually, It was too wide for my little legs, so my right leg was nicely laying on the exhaust, and my foot was obviously not even close to reaching the ground because of that.
shayne hildebrand Very well. While cruising you cannot turn the volume all the way up without it being too loud to enjoy. Sound quality does get degraded by the wind as your speed increases.
You will love the Bullet Fairing. As for the speakers I mounted them to the risers. They are not hard to remove considering that 1 bolt locks a clamp connected to each speaker which wraps around the riser. The wiring from speakers to the amp and then to the fuse box is not as simple. I don't see removing them on the fly a feasible option.
+Wyatt Fabre I've never owned a Harley so I can't give you an opinion on that. Considering the rake it handles turns nicely. It's very well balanced. I think you would love this bike.
Hector Hernandez I'm not sure if that would be a good idea. It could possibly if you were a bigger sized person I suppose. I rode a 750 Shadow for a few years before this bike and it took me a minute to get used to the rake and size of the Fury.
Don Maxon ok thank you for your response rode the iron 883 and loved it too trying to decide on what to get and I'm 5'9 225 you think this bike could suit me ?
Hector Hernandez You're welcome. I think you are good fit for a Fury. I'm pretty similar in size to you. Only thing I could advise is don't buy something you're not willing to damage as a first ride brother

Ayyyy BladedAngel! Fancy seeing YOU of all people here! Did ya get the Fury yet?
Finally he gets on the bike and rides it, no walk around, and no fkng guns & roses b/s.
Thank You..
I could listen to that all day
Very cool bike. Just bought a 2016 Fury too. I love all the makes and most models. You can't beat the Honda reliability.
1966Hemi426 Good for you buddy. Thanks for the kind words and I agree with you 100%
Just got mine last month, but had to wait for BRC to get my license. Deal was too good to pass up. It's my first bike ever, but have to say...love this machine. Smooth ride, good power and killer sound when you get on it. Thanks for the vid. I watched this a couple times while I waited to ride mine.
Shane Beaulieu You're welcome, friend. Thank you for watching. Happy to know that you are enjoying your Fury and are a safe, responsible rider as well. Safe riding to ya!
Likewise. Enjoy the wind!
Did you say this was your first bike?? Damn tough way to start. Sheeet man..
Seek Jesus! He’s the way! The truth! And the life! Repent for the Kingdom is at hand!
those pipes sounds fucking wicked for honda
thanks for the ride, that bike sounds great
You're welcome friend. I thank you as well I appreciate that
Don Maxon make more of these riding videos they are wonderful quality :)
David Borisyuk I will try to asap. Thank you for letting me know they are enjoyable my friend :)
Don Maxon and also because the hond fury is my favorite motorcycle 😂 and ymthe suzuki m109r 😄

I'm about to get one of these beasts as my first bike. I know its risky to get a 1300cc as your first bike. but FUCK is that bike sexy.
Getting my 2013 fury soon. Can’t wait to post a ride😁
Love the way your bike sounds
Thank you. Aftermarket pipes make a significant difference in sound as well as performance.
Your bike is amazing! I want that sound on my VTX
Thanks man. My bad I'm doing a ton of research. I'm comparing the fury with Vulcan and star Stryker. So far I keep leaning towards the fury. Hopefully I can get mine soon.
+Kenny C No problem bud. I can appreciate your buying strategy. Good luck to ya.
Such a pure sound
It has a nice open pipe growl at low speeds. My friend likes these as do I. But I prefer my Harley-Davidson's even more.
I love my Fury. I like how at the end you pull up and park right next to her sister, a Stateline LOL.
Bike is sick it's a copper you can really ride off into sunset and not worry about what is going to break down next love my Honda vt1100c
Sounds beautiful 🤘
Baffle in or out, sounds real good,I love mine 2013....cobra pipes
Oh, Buick Riviera in the mirror, nice! 2:21
Upd. I think you're -dumb- really brave, man! I am scared as hell to ride with no gloves and elbow protection. I've been misfortunate enough to see fingers torn away and elbow bones scratched (flesh open) in accidents at like 15-20 MPH speeds.
My next bike. Love that bike and love that sound. Ear balm. Greetings from Spain. Nice video. 🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝
This bike will love you more 😉 Greetings from the USA. Thank you Arturo!
@@DonaldEMaxonIII I just subscribed. 💪💪💪
I'm getting ready to put the memphis shade faring on my fury and the shark audio system.. I like how yours speakers r tucked behind the faring.. what did you use to mount yours like that
Sweet ride. Love the sound..
Thanks man!
El sonido es bestial 😍
bROWNSVILE PA? Has to be, I ride through there all the time! Thought it lookwed familiar! Im from McKeesport PA. Good to see more local PA youtubers
I don't know what town it is. But as soon as I saw the stop sign at the end of the on ramp, I knew it had to be W. Penn.

Brother...hectic video the surroundings were awesome, im excited hopefully in the morning im trading my Honda repsol 1000 for this rumbling beast!
Brad telnithowitiz Thanks man. I hope you do.
Nice!
Picking mine up this Sunday😎 Can't wait. Like you, I'm upgrading from a Shadow 750.
johsdahl Glad to hear that friend. You will surely love your new machine!

Love the Fury !!
Just think .... everyone thinks it’s a Harley going by. 😂😂😂
Hope I could own one some day .
How do you get your bike to growl so low? I have a fury but it sounds like a pansy compared to yours. Also does the windscreen actually help?
This is what I wanna ride in 20 years lol
Sounds really good.What is your exhaust set up and will that fairing work on after market bars? Thanks for the video!
Thank you. Pipes are Freedom Performance brand and model is Sharp Curve Radius. Yes the fairing will work on aftermarket bars. It's actually mounted to the forks with a quick clamp setup that's really easy to install and is super durable.
Nice bike. Beautiful sound.
The reason I asked where this was filmed is my parents are from Reading. And this looks like how I remember that area.
Thanks buddy.
I have actually had a bunch of people ask me if I am from PA after watching a video I made. I still am not sure what makes it so recognizable.
sweet ride....glad I didn't buy that Harley I was looking at this beast is what I really need lol
Great video, im looking at one, i have a vt1100 right now, should I keep the shadow or go with the fury?
Pipes sound amazing
Andrew Marlow Thanks man. I actually don’t own this bike anymore I own a Dyna Streetbob atm. Only saying since you referenced the Harley pipes
I approve this video. What do you have your phone hooked up to?
The two speakers mounted to my risers that you can see between the fairing and speedo. They are powered by an amp mounted under my seat. If I don't use the marine speakers I connect to my helmets bluetooth speakers/mic.
Don Maxon
what mount are you using for the phone? Thanks. Sweet ride.
HughJass99
Thanks. Its Kuryakyns Tech Connect.
www.kuryakyn.com/products/4732/fairing-mount-tech-connect-device-mounting-system
Badass bike! Where did u get the windsheild or fairing from? And did u mount the speakers to the forks or ? I want something like that, I need music!
painedinks Thank you. Can't remember the site ATM I bought it from but it's Memphis Shades Bullet fairing. I mounted the speakers to the handle bars and hid the amp next the battery.
Don Maxon, nice! Thx for the info, I'm gonna check that out
Went and rode the Fury today. Pretty damn windy on the freeway. Does that little cowl help much?
Yes. A lot more than you would think. I no longer get a sore neck or shoulders on windy days.
Thats good to know! I was doubting its ability to do so. Awesome video, thanks for the response!
rambachpro You're welcome buddy. Thank you too for the positivity.
Awesome ride man. I just bought my 2017 Honda Fury I’m so excited. What type of windshield do you have on? Also is that passenger seat from Honda?
Mike Tverdov Thank you. You are gonna love that bike. I wish I kept mine. The fairing is a Memphis Shades Bullet. The seat is all stock.
1:46 im confused why is the line for the red light SOOO far back from the light? is there a fire station near by or what am i missing?
anyways awesome bike
stufoo Yes there is a fire station near that intersection. Thank you for the compliment.
sorry if this was asked but what brand is the exhaust? Sounds like a vance and hines, but what model if it Is a V&H
FamousRemegadeX Exhaust is by Freedom Performance. Model name is Sharp Curve Radius
I like how you have your speakers mounted. I have the same fairing, did you have to modify the mounts
Alvin Mclean Thank you. No, but I do have 2 1/2 inch risers on. Also a after market headlight housing that's a bit smaller than the stock one.
I've got a quick question for you what kind of MPG do you get on it if you ever checked it out? Nice bike by the way. Trying to convince my wife to get one for my self
It depends. When I ride conservatively I might get 130-140 miles out of a tank of gas. Some days when I'm ripping through gears I might only get 80 or so. I have not ran out of gas yet so I can't say for sure exactly.
Thanks for reply.
+MrMetalist you're welcome friend. I meant to say before that those miles meant when my gas light comes on.
Ok cool thanks
Hey man, what pipes do you have on there? Sounds mean!
Thank you. Pipes are by Freedom Performance and they are named
Sharp Curve Radius.
www.freedomperform.com/sharp-curve-radius/
Don Maxon Awesome. What about the windshield you have on it?
N711DA Its called a Bullet Fairing by Memphis Shades.
www.memphisshades.com/metric-shades/metric-fairings/metric-bullet-fairing
How do them speakers sound .were you get that small wind sheild at looks good
Bike sounds great can I please ask you what brand are they thank you
Brand
Freedom Performance
Model
Sharp Curve Radius
Thank you
do you find that the small tank limits the bike or is it just something you get used to?
I don't think about it much. I get about 125 miles to a tank give or take 5-10 depending on how hard I am on her.
so it's not that big of a deal then?
John Hudson No, not to me. You can't go more than 5 miles without passing a gas station where I am.
ahh, i gotcha. does the wide rake make it a bit unwieldy in low speed turns and such or is it just something you get accustomed to?
John Hudson This bike is perfectly balanced. Period. I joke all the time that she doesnt need a kick stand. The rake isn't even noticeable.
great video wished I lived in california
did you take the baffles out of the exhaust? I have cobra swept and the rumble isn't that loud. maybe I need to switch to that freedom exhaust
do you ever have problem with your pipes scraping love the way they sound
Matt G They will but I really have to be leaning a lot. Seems to mostly happen on most those highway ramps with a tight loop almost all the way around.
I appreciate the positivity👍🏻
Is the exhaust slip on or is it the whole system.
Been Ridin H-D all my life...I'm 42 this year but this bike keeps catching my eye....Wondering if I would be comfortable riding this Honda?? I'm not shallow or call people wanna b's...just hear it way to often. Wanna b what anyway????? Its about RIDING a cool bike ain't it!?!? (Lookin for help making a purchase decision)
I know your frustration. This is a awesome machine and I don't think you will have one regret owning one.
I meant to add also if you have any questions I would be happy to do my best to answer them
My brother lives south of somerset a few miles.
Also how is it going past transport trucks .? Id think it would shake the bike just by the rate of wind as it passes by .
Any bike is gonna get tossed a bit passing a large vehicle at highway speed. Weather you have a problem doing so or not depends on your skills as a driver. As for myself and this bike I don't really think about it or notice it much.
hey im lookin into buying a fury, and i noticed you have aftermarket exhaust with a sound system...does your exhaust drown out the sound or can you hear pretty good?
Austin Olson If I am just cruising down the highway or around town at a reasonable speed I can enjoy music at any volume just fine. It does not get drowned out. Now, if I am ripping through gears at high speed during a windy day, then yes it does get muffled. The Memphis Shades Bullet Fairing did make a big difference in sound quality for me though considering it directs and amplifies the speakers sound toward my ears.
one more question i have is how is the comfort quality...has it seemed the seat has diminished over a long time, or can you still go on those 2-3 hour rides and be just peachy?
Austin Olson For as flat as the seat is it is really comfortable. Its wide in the cheek area and tapers down a lot in the front. I can ride all day with no problem.
thanks for answering my questions, you have been helpful =)
Austin Olson You're welcome buddy. Ride safe!
Where is this filmed? It looks a bit like Reading PA.
Hah, not a bad guess. It's PA but a few hours from Reading.
Nice bike bro. How much your max speed? Drive safe.
What exhaust do you have on your Fury? Does it have the baffles in place or did you take them out? I'd love to get this sweet sound on my Fury.
They are the "Sharp Curve Radius" by Freedom Performance. The baffles they come with are still inside.
Nice!
Hey don hows ur bike performance?
planning to buy this one.
Hey Ansul. Performance is awesome. I suggest you buy one. You will love this machine.
Don Maxon Thanks.
I am buying soon.
Ansul Singh Thats great to hear. Please let me know how you like the bike.
Hello sir, great video. Two quick question's. Is that the Shark Raw helmet and do you live in PA? Thanks!
Thank you. Yes to both of your questions.
+Don Maxon Awesome. How do you like the Raw? Good airflow, easy to see, comfortable? And yes, PA is a beautiful place to ride, especially out in the country! We sure live in a gorgeous state!
+LegitPilot I love the Raw by Shark. It's by far the best helmet I have ever owned. Comfy, stylish, and light weight. I recommend it for sure.
+Don Maxon Thank you very much!
+LegitPilot You're welcome buddy👍🏻
Have you had any issues with the pegs scraping in the corners? I've heard this is an issue with the Fury from a few people.
YKayla Losch yes. But so do the aftermarket ones I use as well
Have you done anything to make it sound like that or is that the stock sound?!
that's a bad ass bike
GROWN MAN SouthernBoi Thank you, sir
Just bought a Fury Where did you get that Fairing?
mike johnson
www.denniskirk.com
You will need to purchase the fairing and also the mounting bracket. They are sold separately.
www.denniskirk.com/memphis-shades/bullet-fairing.p233741.prd/233741.sku
Does it block much wind or more for show?
Don Maxon still have the fury?
Sound like screaming eagle pipes
Thanks for share.
How did you mount those front speakers?
Do you have chrome or black rims? And how much did this bike cost stock, or did you have it customized out of the shop?
TJAnon15 Black. They were around 13k new in 2012. I bought mine stock. I put a lot of aftermarket parts on myself.
great bike. hows the performance?
+Bouge laal Thank you. The performance is a drug I cannot explain.
a lot of people are complaining about vibration in the foot pegs whats your thoughts?
fire storm First time I heard that. I put aftermarket pegs on early on so maybe that is why I don't have an issue.
Do you have any kind of fuel tuner installed to compensate for the pipes
Bula Rider Yes. I use the Cobra fi2000.
Sweet video
ozzy_da_king Hey thanks man
How is the power on the fury? I'm looking at this or the victory Vegas...
+Mr223wssm Power is more than you need. I luckily have only got one speeding ticket on mine...
Is that the stock exhaust? Sounds real nice.
No buddy it's aftermarket. Thanks
+Don Maxon it would be cool if you could put some specs in the description of your aftermarket stuff. I'm a new rider and not really sure where to start with market items let alone aftermarket. but thanks for getting back to me.
+Jim West You're welcome friend. Sure I could tell you all the aftermarket parts I've used.
Hi what is the horsepower and torque of the engine?
tom snitter 74 HP at 5000rpm Torque is 79 at 2250
Hey bud. How's the bike for everyday commuting?
Very good. I have rode to work everyday I am able from March till December the last three years.
What speakers do you have on it??
Could u put straight pipes on this and a clutch assist ?
The stock pipes were pretty much straight pipes. They had some noise canceling mufflers on the ends though. I don't doubt you can find a aftermarket set straight pipes if you want. I have seen a clutch assist made by a guy on vtxcafe.com for Honda 1300's
www.vtxcafe.com/showthread.php/27631-Clutch-assist-from-Glens-Garage
Thanks don i appreciate the info . Ride safe
mad dog robinson You're welcome buddy. Same to you! Keep the shiny side up!
Awesome bike. Are those the original handle bars?
Thanks man. I appreciate the compliment. These are not the original bars. They were black. These are the "stock" bars for this bike but chromed.
+Don Maxon cool. Would you be able to tell me the length of that end to end? I'm trying to find out the widest part of the bike. And of course I assume the foot peds don't stick out further than the bars. I'm trying to see if the space I have to park will accommodate the fury. Thanks man.
+Kenny C I would say the length of this bike is somewhere between 8 and 9 feet. It's 6 feet from the center of the each wheel to the other. I would say from handlebar end to end is 3
+Don Maxon thanks man appreciate it
+Kenny C 👍🏻 You're welcome buddy
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Is this 5 or 6 gears also what pipes do you have on it?
5 gears. 1 down 4 up. The pipes are by Freedom Performance. They are the Sharp Curve Radius model.
nice thanks man im stuck between this and the yamaha stryker s
***** You're welcome buddy. I can appreciate your situation. That can be a difficult decision.
+Don Maxon lol i didn't even go with either of these options but my next bike is gunna be a fury for sure.
***** Nice. Any day on two wheels is a good day. Keep the shiny side up my friend!
Stock air filter? ECU remap?
Will the Honda fury be a good first bike ? @Donmaxon
+Taman Kalsi No
+Don Maxon really? i respect the honesty but iyo why wouldn't it make a good 1st bike?
+Zeus Razor If you have no experience on a motorcycle, you should start out with a 250 or 600. Maybe 750 at most. No ones first bicycle was a mountain bike. If you plan on learning on a bigger bike you more than likely hurt yourself or someone else
Don Maxon makes sense. Beautiful bike by the way.
Zeus Razor Thank you. I appreciate you saying that and I hope you find the same joy I do being on 2 wheels one day.
how hard to ride this bike - what was your bike before?
jowowetan Not difficult. Once you get used to the rake its a blast to ride. I rode a Honda Shadow 750cc before my Fury.
Don Maxon was the shadow your first bike?
Eli Bhatti It was, surprisingly. Considering I learned on my own how to ride a motorcycle on that 750 Shadow. Never had a single motor powered bike before that.
This was music to my ear. I now feel particularly frustrated to be 4''11 and 105 pounds. Does it really weigh nearly 700 pounds + saddle height of 27 inches, because I might cry? Is there anything else than the Rebel 250 on this planet for me?
Yeah there is!! I'm not a huge Harley fan but a Harley sportster would fit you. And they look badass too. Or even try a 883 from them as well. Badass bike and for a smaller rider
+Brett Schmidt Yeah, they do! The Sportster is way too high (seat height is nearly 32'') and way too heavy (550 lbs), though. I sat on a small CBR 125 and it was 30'', and the only things that could touch the ground were my tippy toes of only one foot . And the guy had to hold the bike cause it was too heavy for my tippy toes haha. This 125 is only 320 lbs. So I stand no chance with the Sportster! I also sat on a Honda Shadow, which is 26.7'' of seat height (if I remember well), like the Rebel, but way too wide and heavy as well!
But a few days ago, I concluded a transaction with a man selling his Rebel 250 (1985) - custom, and I must say: Although it has no torque, I feel much safer with both of my feet touching the ground. And I had no problem with the weight since I had more than my tippy toes to handle the 320 lbs. But I am still keeping my Spyder ST for my road trips, so I don't mine having a weak 250 cc bike for city rides! I've had very good feedback for the Rebel. When I get bored on the street with my Rebel 250, I'll still have my 1000 cc Spyder ST for adrenaline, that will save me from getting bored!
+Jenny Champagne I'm 5'8". I put canella risers on and moved the forward controls 1 1/2" back and 1" up. Handles like a dream. Try a Yahama Bolt- great bike, many mods available
+Frederick Sparks
I so wish I could handle a 550 lbs bike (mostly this one), but it's way too heavy for me! The Honda Shadow weighs about the same and I could not even move anything while seating on it. It was pathetic to witness the whole thing...and actually, It was too wide for my little legs, so my right leg was nicely laying on the exhaust, and my foot was obviously not even close to reaching the ground because of that.
+Jenny Champagne If you're still interested, the Kawasaki Vulcan S is a very small cruiser. Fast, 650 motor. Should suit you fine.
Where is this? Looks a lot like southwest Virginia.
Bob Papadopoulos Southwest Pennsylvania.
I feel the fury could use a 6th gear on the highway.. theres enough torque
J KEIMEL same with all the Shadows. No idea why they stuck with 5-speeds. Even my VT750 Aero has the potential to putt along in 6th at 60mph
Hey what kind of fairing is that Don Maxon?
It's by Memphis Shades. The model name is "Bullet"
www.memphisshades.com/metric-shades/metric-fairings/metric-bullet-fairing
+Don Maxon thanks man. Sweet fury btw. I just bought one last week and I'm loving it
+Jarrett Rodgers You're welcome. Congrats on the new ride! I'm glad you're enjoying it.
What audio do you have set up?
2 Pyle Cycle Series Speakers and 1 Pyle Marine Amp. Speakers are 3 inch diameter and rated 800 watts. The amp is 2 channel rated at 400 watts.
How clear can you hear it while riding?
shayne hildebrand Very well. While cruising you cannot turn the volume all the way up without it being too loud to enjoy. Sound quality does get degraded by the wind as your speed increases.
Alright awesome I have a fury and want to put a bullet faring on it. Are the speaking fixed to the bike or easy to take on and off?
You will love the Bullet Fairing. As for the speakers I mounted them to the risers. They are not hard to remove considering that 1 bolt locks a clamp connected to each speaker which wraps around the riser. The wiring from speakers to the amp and then to the fuse box is not as simple. I don't see removing them on the fly a feasible option.
Thanks! You live in western pa?
Welcome, friend! Yes I am in PA
Those are definitely Pa roads...
hi, how much miles per galon on the fury?
Carlos Santana I am not exactly sure at the moment but if I had to estimate I would say I get around 40 give or take
where did you get that fairing??
+mycommentsRbetter Its by Memphis Shades. Its called the "Bullet Fairing".

+Don Maxon thanks man! just bought a fury today!
mycommentsRbetter You're welcome, friend. I am happy for you.
How tall are you? Which exhaust? Thank.
I'm 5 foot 8 inches tall. Exhaust is called Sharp Curve Radius by Freedom Performance.
Thank you!
+Albert Ryabinin (Alberto Gaus) You're welcome, friend!
What type of helmet do you have?

Got mine from revzilla.

Don Maxon That is one nice helmet. Thanks for responding
ron jea Thank you friend. You are welcome.
Bubble gum 1:43 :)
Haha good eye there buddy
what exhaust are you using?
Freedom Performance Sharp Curve Radius
+Don Maxon thanks. how does it compare to a harley? how does it take turns? I might be getting one on Wednesday
+Wyatt Fabre I've never owned a Harley so I can't give you an opinion on that. Considering the rake it handles turns nicely. It's very well balanced. I think you would love this bike.
+Don Maxon thanks. ima get it wednesday, hopefully I'll like it.
Where can I get that wind screen

+Don Maxon ur awesome thanks buddy nice bike
+Rikky Aaenson You're welcome man and thank you for the compliment
could this be a bike for a beginner??
Hector Hernandez I'm not sure if that would be a good idea. It could possibly if you were a bigger sized person I suppose. I rode a 750 Shadow for a few years before this bike and it took me a minute to get used to the rake and size of the Fury.
Don Maxon ok thank you for your response rode the iron 883 and loved it too trying to decide on what to get and I'm 5'9 225 you think this bike could suit me ?
Hector Hernandez You're welcome. I think you are good fit for a Fury. I'm pretty similar in size to you. Only thing I could advise is don't buy something you're not willing to damage as a first ride brother
Don Maxon lol right makes sense guess I'll go with the iron for a 1st bike thanks again bro
fully stock?
No, changed a good bit of parts on her
