This is the breif history of the Honda Fury, Honda's Production chopper line that has stood over a decade of imitator, and duplicates. #motorcycles #hondafury #honda #chopper
I want a Fury to park next to my 66 Triumph chopper. I wish Honda would update it though. A 6 speed and a bump in horsepower and torque would be nice as well.
Don't knock it until you have it parked in your garage. It honestly does not need the extra gear or any more HP. It really is a perfect combination the way it is. I'm 6'4"/ 260lbs and it totes me around perfectly. If I needed a 6th gear for more highway riding, I simply would not choose the Fury.
what i would like most from the fury is a fuel gauge, gear indicator and a bigger gas tank wouldn't hurt either. Tach would also be nice, but, im indifferent to that great if it did also meh if not. I just hate playing the game "am i walking or riding to the gas station ?"
This was one of your best videos. I love my '14 Fury. It's a perfect combination of all things from styling to comfort to performance. Happy New Year from NY
great video! perfect statement on the Fury! i still want one, but also looking at an Indian Scout. we'll see how my finances are come spring time. but this was a great video on what the Fury is all about.
1997 Honda Valkyrie touring with cobra pipes (baffles in) The Honda Fury has a lot going for it as far as style, but comfort... range... vibration... Yeah, I'll stick with my Valk. To each their own!
The range is the only gripe I have. No vibration issue and I put a Mustang seat on it so comfort is great. Tons of other upgrades but everything was done out of preference, not necessity. Any bike is a great bike if you love it.
I had a Yamaha Raider and I like my Fury alot better. The Fury handles better, has less power, but come on, you don't need more ponies than the Fury has.
@@DanielKulkaexactly! Greedy people all around! Its just a beautiful bike! And most important, you can ride it without wearing fancy overpriced, Made in China, clothing 😂
The 100mph limitation can be tuned out and about 8 more h.p. added with a good reflash of the Ecu . The bike has a lot of low end grunt and easily run over that100 mph if you are willing to do so. Makes a great cruiser.
I don’t know why most Japanese so called chopper (they are not by the way) have weird proportions. Take the Fury for example, the rear profile of the bike looks awkward
@@galwegan4081 A bike customized for you by the factory isn't the same as a bike you customized for yourself. A chopper is a stock bike (or custom frame built from the ground up) that you "chop up', customize or in some manner, make it yours by putting blood, sweat and skinned knuckles into it to make it your own. You earn it, you build it. That's a chopper. I'm sure the Fury is technically a sound good handling bike. If you're unfortunate enough not to have a garage or workshop to build up a chop, well I guess the next best thing is to buy a bike like the Fury. I'd ride along side with you, probably buy you a beverage at the next greasy spoon. Peace, bro.

@@eibbor171 my VTX needs all of that too. I'm used to it tho. Just set your trip meter and figure you need to fill up at 120 miles.
@@nickjurgle7131 that's just it though i dont wanna do that when gas gauges exist and im not lazy i just maximize efficiency lol

Have been riding Harley for over 30 years. Sold my 2004 Heritage yesterday to buy a 2010 Fury. Probably my last bike!
This is going to be my first bike.
It was my first and I loved it and still do You won’t regret it 👍🏼
You won't be Disappointed. I have 2 of them.
@@markhampton2142 I have looked at the price for a new one and it’s not bad.

The Fury will give you years of trouble free riding. The motor is virtually bullet proof. It's a great bike.
Excellent video!
Best video yet E.R
nice report.

They could make an 1800 bigger like the big dog
A Honda Fury is NOT a chopper. Nothing has been chopped. It's a factory made bike that's designed to look like a chopper.
So what's your point?
Congrats bill nye you pointed out the obvious lol

First thing i think about is Honda interstate.

of course its a chopper .. is it a bobber ? nope .. but it sure as shit is a chpper
Not a chopper. A Honda Fury is poser jewelry for check book heroes. Sorry.
rocket
p.s. To those that understand, no explanation is necessary.
understand ? understand what ? that you dont know what your talking about .. we got that .. thanks tho

I NEVER wanted a chopper
