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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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👍🏻
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
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.
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!
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.
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 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!
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.
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.
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)
+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.
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 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
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.
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.
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
+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
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
wow, thanks for the fast reply, i didnt even get to finish the whole video and you replied! thanks a lot will be looking at one really soon, selling my dirt toy for a down payment on one of these bad boys.
