My friend and I are all mostly vet and we call it wind therapy...best cure or at least managment of PTSD in the world a long ride and good lunch talking with the lord ....its like gold
My friend rode his Tricked Out Fury to Sturgis. All the Harley riders were checking it out saying how awesome it was, wanting to know who built his custom chopper. When he told them it was a Honda Fury and the conversation stopped immediately.
@@bigrob7821 they would donthe same to my old 86 shadow it looked like a HD to the RUBS that didnt.know better because of the exhaust the previous owner put on and i had the paint done after some dru k knocked it over
@Phenomenon Boy I have owned (3) Harley's over the past 15 years. I don't disrespect anyone else's bike no matter if its a Enduro, Sport Bike or a Cruiser of any make and model. I have to say I have got a chuckle out of people on scooters calling them motorcycles. BUT, I did see a Honda Fury at a bike night here a few years ago and I've considered buying one for myself to have for shorter rides. Not EVERY Harley rider is disrespectful, we all have our favorite Auto maker and/or Bike manufacturer.
I'm a harley guy....but goddamn the fury line from Honda ridiculously gorgeous. And for the price, brand new, they're more affordable than most Harleys I've seen
Agreed, I dont care what anyone says in todays day and age you need money to survive and a good amount of it, money is the name of the game, unfortunately it's the system they created
@@Jay-jb2vr no way man. The less money you have the bigger the problems are to you. People who have many problems but a lot of money would have even more problems with less money
@@chuckleibengood5440 your point being, oh utra relable. Won't overheat In Daytona traffic and the drive shaft will go forever with little maintenance. Air cooled engines have limited time before they're history. Harley had their chance with the VRod but blew it. Oh bearded one: Nope Honda gleaned 3 other models off of the Fury non of which made the cut and they dropped em. Stateline, Sabre and interstate
@@oquitar what do you mean "so"? He started with "just a cool fact", so that's what it is. A japanese bike with more domestic parts than a company who heavily relies on patriotism to sell bikes.
I have the same, it's a great bike. Just putts down the road effortlessly. I've got my suspension set perfect for wt and put some z-bars on it so my back is straight. Of course I've drag pipes and a tuner on it. She's very happy. Black as night. I've removed a lot of crap off her, and still more simplicity is needed.all the control are going as soon as I can find a suitable substitute. Headlight I dispise as well as all turn indicators. The front fender is in the trash as well. All chrome plastic is to be replaced,etc.😊
Till your rich and u have everything and it gets old u get tired and burnt out then start trying to take over the world like the Rothschild rockefeller bill gates mark zuckerberg and the rest I'm fine being poor God family food and a motorcycle is all u need I think the deal with money is people want to be able to have what they want when they want it which is nice till u have it all then what just keep buying multiples of everything just to feel a little thrill it's what everyone with money does I say invest in a relationship with God and and you're family it's what ultimately matters don't neglect it
@@shawnskinner1336 I want her 100% agree with you.... I love God I want my next life to be better than this one..... I guess it would be nice to have a lot of money to keep yourself busy in your times of depression
Yeah, whoever said ‘money can’t buy happiness’ has never been well and truly broke. As long as I have enough to get by, I don’t care about money in the slightest, but I’ve not had enough a couple times in my life and nothing besides money could’ve made me happy in those times. A nice sentiment, but it’s just fluff.
I went from a vtx1800 to the Fury. I miss my 1800, but this Fury takes the sting out of it. Bought it stock, put on a C&C seat, Hardkrome 2into1 sideburner, and a Ginz scorpion sissy bar. Love it
I owned a 2011 fury. Coming from someone who had the aftermarket exhaust, with those same exact mirrors, the fury is an awesome around town bike and can be taken on some midrange jaunts. The exhaust does get hot, still a extremely fun and extremely reliable bike! I'm 5'10" and it was the absolute best bike I've ever had! Got a Harley street glide by trading the fury in, and got rid of the Harley and went with a honda stateline.
Whether or not I opt to buy a bike, the fact that I ran into this channel and get the Bible lesson seems a great deal more important. This is cool Keeps me coming back btw
I am very seriously contemplating buying one of these bikes. I like the style, the deep rumble of the big v twin, and how low it sits seeing as I am only 5'8 and 180lbs. It's been years since I rode, but this thing seems like it would be a nice one to get back on two wheels with. My last two bikes were older sport bikes, but I've always loved the chopper look but not the chopper price or how they felt.
Had mine 7 years now. Might go get a new one. Absolutely the best bike I've ever owned, especially when I incorporate the cost of maintenance. I just can't drop the money on a Harley for their lack of innovation since the dawn of the 2000s.
I had a 2010 Honda Fury. That's the first year of the Fury as well. I gotta say that I absolutely loved it. The Fury is an awesome motorcycle, and a great choice for someone looking for a cool custom chopper style bike that still performs. I wouldn't classify it as a muscle bike. It's not super strong, but very torquey. It'll reach the top speeds very quickly and rides really good and smooth for the style of bike it is. It could definitely benefit from a 6th gear, as 65-70 mph, mine definitely wanted another gear. It would keep climbing and I'd be at 75-80 mph without even realizing it. Otherwise it is setup great as fun, sporty, easy to ride chopper style bike. The only reason I don't own mine anymore, is due to an accident that resulted in insurance totaling the bike. But I do miss it. It's a great bike to own and ride.
Soon, there is going to be the rapture. It's when there will be trumpet sounds, and after the trumpet sounds, God will lift his people from here. Also, God said people should be living by the Bible. Amen, and God bless you.
When the Fury came out I was riding the first of my two St1300s. The ST had a 7 gallon tank and 300 miles in a tank was easy to do. The two or three gallons the Fury could carry seemed teeny. Almost like peanut tanks or something. The bike looked great but just limited. I’ve since learned they had a reasonable range and regret not at least taking a test drive
I personally own a 2016 model....love it!!! It is by far the best bike i have ever drove. Lots of aftermarket is out there. They are the VTX1300. The only difference is the rake, bigger front wheel and wide rear tire
I bought a Fury after looking at them for it for a while. I brought it home and parked it in the garage. The wife gave me dirty looks and resentment. It's my release after working all week. She accepted that. I get cudos every time I ride it. It is custom chopper looking and gets second looks all the time. It's a Honda but it is not just a Honda. No one leaves me behind when they want to race on the freeway (or from a stop light). It's a Honda but it gets respect where ever I take it. I am having lots of fun riding it. It's been a long time since I've had so much enjoyment just riding; anywhere.
Had a fury, sold it, now I am UNHAPPY!!! Seriously though, I LOVE THE FURY. I will be getting another one. Just need to figure out how to tell the wife :-)
I love you videos. Informative, interesting, variety of bikes.... But the 1 thing I enjoy and especially respect are the words of wisdom. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Sorry, I don't follow, Motorcycles absolutely make me happy, I can't think about problems while cruizing along with the wind in my hair (read as helmet). Nothing reduces stress like a nice country ride even better with friends, total joy on two wheels.
I guess I'm a little different. I think about all my problems when I'm riding. But, since I'm riding, I think of everything in a different light.. it helps me get to the bottom of things. It really helps me out. What would we do without these machines ??
I did an experiment one time while I was having weekly doctors visits.. One day I drove my car in and my heart rate was at about 98 BPM.. then the next visit which was a few days later I rode my bike with NO changes from the previous visit and my heart rate was at 85 BPM.. So yes riding a bike on a gorgeous day is a very relaxing experience
Nah man. As an unhappy person, my motorcycle makes me happy. I havent had a moment I didnt enjoy on it yet. Mashing through the gears had me laughing hysterically. It might not change your life, but itll make you happy.
If you laugh hysterically while meshing through the gears, Then maybe you should seek a good psychiatrist as no matter how you look at it, it’s just plain odd.
a 6 Absolutely! I mean your meth lab could be on fire! Girlfriend is being held hostage by the cartel and get on your bike and shit just melts away! lol But seriously NOTHING MAKES ME HAPPIER in my shit life!
Man, I love everything about this video. Within the past few weeks, when I wake up around 3am or when I’m laying in bed and can’t fall asleep, I’ll watch one of these videos of you riding. It’s almost like a guilty pleasure 😆 But this video in particular is really great. I love all the verses and sometimes a prayer at the beginning, keep that up, but todays verse was great. I love all your videos test drive videos but this one was my favorite. I love the bike and now want one for myself 😆 everything about this video was great. Keep it up (Yes I know I’m watching 2-4yr old videos, but I love this style of videos. Your audio is perfectly clear!)
The only things I disliked about my fury was the rev limiter and speed limiter. Top speed is 100mph and rpm is around 4k or so. It hits 100mph very quick but I feel like my bike needs that choke collar removed if you know what I meen. I want my bike to show the 100% potential that it should be showing. I'll deffently be putting that device into the computer for the rev limiter, rpm, and 30% (I think) more horse power I believe. Vance and Himes exaust installed made a very HUGE DIFFERENCE in sound as well. I love it!
Ditto for me. I have a V&H 2 into 1 (since discontinued) and a Power Commander V... it *feels* faster but I can't say for sure... I'm thinking about hitting a dyno or 1/4 mi track to see what it does
Money is a little like food: you need a certain amount of it to live, and especially if you've had to go without it, it's easy to believe that more is always better, but beyond a certain point, having more can be harmful to your wellbeing. "give me neither poverty nor riches... Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain." Proverbs 30:8, 9
I wanted to tell you, I really appreciate the scriptures you share on here. God bless!! The only thing that I can't get around and I'm not sure why is the fact that to me the gas tank doesn't look like it fits the bike because the frame rails aren't covered by the tank. I will have to agree and disagree with you on choppers. I love choppers! But, like you said, they have to be ride-able and comfortable. However, if you can't handle a bike properly and want to be able to do it better no matter what bike you ride. Then, you need to go to the Ride Like a Pro channel to learn how to handle a bike.
The Fury 1300 engine is the same block basically as the older 1300 VTX, only now they are fuel injected. That may make them a bit more responsive so you have that but they have alot less horse power than the older 1300 VTX (about 10 less hp)
I love the prayer in the beginning. I’ve been thinking maybe I’m too old to have a bike at age. I haven’t had one since college. I got rid of it at my dad’s urging. He’s a dentist. And when a dentist is called into the ER it’s a motorcycle reason he says. Every single time. He paints a terrible picture from there in trying to reattach the mandible to a surgeon removing handle bars from the torso. A surgeon delicately working on a hand. An Anesthesiologist earning their pay. The prayer made that all boil back up. Guess I’m not ready. The texters and the Karens are too prelevant. Beyond the drunks. Way beyond. Thank you too for your outlook on life. I think you’re totally onto something. I quite my job Monday. Just quit. Nothing in the pipe. Lots in savings but not a lifetime. Everyday I do what I want. I field calls in which everyone is so worried. I drive non hitch hikers, I love magnets and electricity. Now money. I do think everyone should try and spend $100,000 in one month. Any one purchase may be $5000. You will be shocked that with 3 nice $80,000-10
@SrkCycles, I own a 2010 Fury, and the original bike, in its OEM config, houses a 40+ mpg, 1300cc engine that produces a measly 50-55 HP (from factory). But by having that high flow intake, and those sick pipes installed on there, it throws the fuel map out of whack (as it would with any car or bike). And so, there is very likely either a Power Commander on it, or the ECU might have a sticker slapped on the side specifying it's been reprogrammed (probably by Guhl Motors). So if this Fury is putting down upwards of 70+ to the floor, then it would have almost certainly been reprogrammed; and you're SOO right: the Fury, with opened up parameters, is an amazing ride!! Like adding a whole 'nother cylinder to the bike; giving it some soul; some gumption! Lol. I'm 5'7", so I'm a bit more stretched over the tank than Shawn, but I can break that back tire loose at stop lights, and even smoked a Caddy ATS down the highway. I also scrape the pegs going thru Lime Creek Rd at nearly every corner and she just keeps on leanin'. So I guess it's fair to say it is definitely a confidence-inducing cruiser. Actually scraped my left boot heel down a bit... As the angle of your foot sits your heel a tad-bit lower than the peg. For it being a cruiser, gimmicked as a "factory chopper", it rides really nice, is very forgiving, extremely comfortable (unless you're the passenger), and it gets mistaken (by HD riders) for being a "custom" Harley all the time. But, for real, the back seat was likely an afterthought, haha! It really is a solo bike, with a small pillion for bar-hopping on the weekends. If she has to sit on that darn thing for more than an hour, I'm in trouble. Hahaha!
Here's some wisdom for you Sean. Riding my motorcycle gives me happiness. Having enough money to pay my bills and financial obligations gives me feelings of confidence and well being. Doing the job that I love makes me happy knowing that there are many other jobs out there that suck the soul out of you. Knowing that I am loved and cared for by my family makes me happy. All of this and just being a decent person is worthy of happiness. Didn't need a book to tell me this stuff, after 60 years of living on this globe it just makes good sense. I just wish others would come to the same conclusion.
My 2010 Honda Stateline was rough on my lower back. I'm 6' 1" and I wish I had spent more time on the initial test drive. After 1hr of riding my lower back was trashed. The Stateline and the Fury are basically the same bike. I used it mainly for around town driving and I'm glad the bike wasn't too expensive. Still a fun bike, a lot of compliments, and the 1300 is a nice motor.
I owned a Fury it was a good bike, but after a while I felt like a pretend chopper guy. I would come across guys who built their choppers, and the Fury just seemed fake next to their bikes. The Fury is a great and reliable, but maybe choppers are more about the soul of a bike then how well it’s engineered.
I didn't buy my Fury to be a chopper wannabe, I bought it because it felt right. If I threw a Sumo-X kit and some other mods on it, then it would be a chopper
I'm a Marine 10years in the Coprs multiple tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. I have really bad PTSD and when my Anxiety and depression gets bad riding my YZF-R1 or my Victory Hammer, my ninja ZX10R or my Harley makes me happy it's the best therapy. I almost bought a 2010 Honda Fury the Victorys look similar to the Furys but the Victory has more power. But Honda does build a really reliable bike.
I have a 07 VTX 1300r with 38k on it I've never had one problem with it , other than tires /brakes... I've had it for 8 year's ... Great bike's in my opinion.. Keep up the great video's....
motorcycle ad in thailand counters this claim! Showed a group of old men living terrible lives and all their worries go away when they ride motorcycles!!
Actually....I lost my wife and kids to the world. I fell in love with a young lady and she died from injuries from a fall. I was injured and I needed help. I rode my motorcycle, drove my Jeep, high top Chevy Express 2500, and my Ford Fusion SE to therapy and group sessions. ( I was all alone and taking a sabbatical from work. I needed to keep all the batteries charged....I would have drove my "Breaking Bad Bounder" if the parking lot had been bigger.) I was never actually suicidal....I rode with ALL gear, all the time. Sometimes I wore my hi-vis. Areostitch Roadcrafter suit and matching Arai helmet for a 6 mile ride! I didn't mind dying but I didn't want to become seriously injured, financially ruined, unable to work, on top of being all alone and suddenly not able to attract women as well as I could before "the crash". The therapy helped. Riding my ST1300 gave me satisfaction and people seemed to be interested in getting to know me . I won't say that having and actually RIDING a nice motorcycle will make everyone happy but for me it has been a rewarding experience. Five years later, I just completed a 10 day, 3300 mile tour on that same bike and I have been married for 2 years. We believe that God prepared us to love and care for each other. My beautiful wife came all the way from the Philippines and while I have been running up and down the roads on a fast Honda.
How many CCs? I think they could have put a slightly bigger gas tank on this bike. Looks like a lot of unused space right below the front of the gas tank.
HumGuitar it's 1300cc and yes, the tank is tiny. The Yamaha Stryker has better numbers performance wise and a larger gas tank, plus the Stryker is belt drive. The Fury is shaft driven 🤮
HumGuitar I went with a Stryker: corners better (road both), bigger gas tank (seat is comfortable I like long trips), metal fenders (Honda is plastic, my preference). The fury is super cool just wasn’t for me. Bye the way the 1300 in both bikes are solid as a rock.
Jonny G thanks, I'll take all the advice I can get. I'm only going to be able to afford to buy one motorcycle, so I want to get the one that is best for me. I've watched a few videos/reviews of the Stryker, and it seems (because of being so low) that it is prone to scrape the pegs. Do you have that problem? I really like the looks of the Stryker though, and I would also like to take some long trips with my wife as well. The Stryker's bigger gas tank and more comfortable seat puts it much higher on my list than the Fury. I'm also looking hard at the 650 Vulcan S and the V-Strom 650, mainly for economic reasons. The Vulcan 900 is also a possibility.
HumGuitar I liked my Stryker, it will definitely scrape the pegs if you corner aggressive. I don't think it's Max lean angles are really much different from many other cruisers out there, but it's been a while so I'd have to look it up. Honestly I wouldn't worry too much about pegs scraping, if they do you certainly don't want to go much farther but I never felt like the bike couldn't handle itself in the corners. Felt pretty light and nimble in all honesty I've you get used to the rear end feeling like it's taking forever to turn in. Definitely a different feeling from bikes with less rake / shorter wheelbases. For the $ you can't really beat the Stryker of the bikes you listed - IMO
INDIAN LARRY WAS THE ONLY BIKE BUILDER I KNEW OF THAT BUILT BIKE TO RIDE AND THAT TURNED EASILY!!! HE BUILT BIKES THAT WERE CITY STREET FRIENDLY!!!!. THOSE OTHER CUSTOM BIKES ACTUALLY PISSED HIM OFF BCUZ THEY WEREN'T REALLY RIDABLE. A LOT OF IT HAD TO DO WITH THE RAKE OF THE FRONT END. I LOVE WHAT U GUYS DO AND WHAT UR ALL ABOUT. I FOLLOW U GUYS ON CZcams AND I PLAN ON BUYING MY NEXT BIKE FROM SRK CYCLES. TY FOR EVERYTHING AND PLZ KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!GOD BLESS YOU AND STAY SAFE!!!..
I'm new to this channel and I enjoy it. You are pretty good at reviewing bikes. Couple of questions tho... do you really not exceed speed limits? And what is the reason for reading verses from the bible (I think) before each ride? I mean NO disrespect at all, just curious. Keep up the good work! 👍👍
@@dominiclaneve9783 Fair enough my friend. The words don't make a lot of sense to me but it appears to be a good positive way to live your life. Thank you for explaining. I admire your conviction in your beliefs. Ride safe, ride long.👍👍👍😇🇺🇸
If you want a chopper. The Fury is the best bike made. The Fury is the only real chopper. The Rader was not a true chopper. The problem was Honda made the Fury just after the end of the Chopper Craze. By then you could pick up a $40,000 dollar Big Dog for $10- $15 thousand dollars. Had Honda released the Fury during the Chopper Craze, they would have been back ordered. .....And yes it's the VTX 1300, which uses a single pin crank, which gives it the great sound. God bless you brother.
I have the rarer 2013 VT1300CS Sabre which has the old school power of the carbed vtx of 75HP 100Tq with the bigger tank than fury and smaller rear tire. I hate the fury cluster mucking up the handle bar, mine is still on tank which is perfect! My only complaint is the frame scraping on turns, they could have done a better job at tucking that in.
Dude. You must not have rid a Texas Chopper by American IronHorse. Perfect rake at 42 degrees. S&S 110ci. 105 ponies. Baker right side drive. 280mm rear tire. When you hit the throttle it’s pulling a trigger. That bike was the bike for 34k. The Slammer was the best cruiser style with air ride precision shocks. Fury has beautiful lines. I’d buy one. I was an IronHorse Franchise dealer...so As Lynyrd Skynyrd says “ I know a little”.
Just asking your expert opinion. Would you recommend the Honda fury as first bike ? ( So far it`s the one that sticks everytime I go to any motorcycle auto show & dealership.
1974-1976 Suzuki RE5s were sitting the dealer showroom floor until the 1980s. I wish I had the money then. They marked them down, but still more than a Kaw 1000.
I'm waitin for it too. Talkin to the guys at the shop here, they are "supposed" to be making a very limited production one soon. It was originally designed for an 1800 but honda said it was too much power for the weight and design. As soon as the put it out there, I'll be making a down for one, still not gettin rid of my 17 fury though,,,, it's my baby!
Happiness is a feeling. It is completely contained within you and not attached or dependent on anything material. Material can only bring temporary happiness and over time simply becomes like any other drug and the constant pursuit of material happiness only makes addicts of the material world. Which means complete bondage to the state of suffering and false identity with the material world. Hence all over the world of mankind.. ppl live with complaining state of being. All material is limited it can only bring limited/false happiness. Happiness in the human condition is the same as being free from desires. Which means to be complete.. whole.. such that there is no need for anything in order to be "happy". This is known as the state of contentment. Humans must know that you become/are the result of the thoughts you practice. This is the most important practice or conditioning of the human state of being, for all that we manifest in life begins as a thought in the mind. When we become aware of our thought conditioning this also leads one to begin to question the origin of their thoughts and how outside environment factors strongly contribute to influencing what thoughts are occupying our minds. So to use a fitness analogy... What kind of reps are you putting in with your thoughts? Are you constantly in pursuit of material desires? Well, that means you are conditioning your state of being to search for contentment in only the material realm. Man can choose to either believe in the need for the material desire.. OR.. the straight path is to attempt to remove the desire from self.. or at least ask WHY do I feel this desire? Follow this path.. and poof.. Happiness! How simple it is to be fully happy.. like an ego-less and identity free infant...content and at Peace..free from internal conflict and being whole..ONE.. when one has been liberated from the concepts of material desires. This is the state of perpetual unlimited happiness. Seek the practices and train your being such that you annihilate the ego and become truly free in being...break the bondage.. become no-thing.. such that you may posses the will to love everything(including your own being, maybe if we fully love ourselves as is, we have no need of the material desires)..free from the inherent biases that come from being bonded to the relative, contextually based "world of parts".. you will no longer be in a place where you are looking to receive.. but you will be so fulfilled that all you want to do is give. But nothing may have changed in your material world.. in fact.. you may find your self with far less material.. but fully filled w Eternal Joy.
Man I fell in love with the fury as soon as I saw it. Took a while but got a 17. It aint the fastest or most powerfull but it looks damn cool and rides well. Sux that ya gotta stop for gas every 100 miles. But you will get attention! BTW no passenger pegs or seat came with mine
Sean is very near to Amish country. Trying to figure out what an Amish motorcycle would look like. Picture a Harley trike, but it has to be towed by a horse.
Honestly...sean from srk cycles deals motorcycles. I've not EVER seen a video where he doesnt talk a bike up. Not the thing to watch if you wanna buy a nice bike folks. This is a man selling bikes and making $
I feel that the only reason they didnt sell well in the beginning is that we were in the thick of the great recession and a lot of luxury items weren't selling well back then. They're a great looking bike!
Just a heads up guys, this isn't a stock fury. It's got aftermarket exhaust, intake, and mirrors on it for sure. The stock exhaust sounds better but a little quiet for what it should be. I know this, Because I own a 13 fury
This bike and the star stryker were some of the coolest bikes to come out in the 2000s-2010s, and of course the raider and warrior and mean streak and the vtx1800 were all awesome
The problem was that they came out the same price as the Yamaha Raider at $15K. Fury has a 1300cc/80ci while my Raider has a 1854cc/113ci motor, fury has 57hp to raider's 90 stock hp, 200mm rear wheel compared to Raider's 210mm rear tire but Raider can go to 240mm with no mods just throw it on stock rim, gas tank 3.8 to Raider's 4.2 gallon tank, rake 32 degrees to Raider's 40 degrees on front forks. Now the Honda Fury comes at $10,500 compared to the Yamaha Raider at $15,200.
If I couldn't get a Raider it was my second choice. Great looking and riding bike. Chopper look with Honda dependability. A custom chopper at a Honda price. After you throw an aftermarket pipe on it, it sounds great.
Definitely. I agree that Fury is a fine ride, it will get you down the highway and sound good doing it. I was just saying I preferred the Raider's look and feel more than the Fury's. But I still think the Fury is fine and with the right aftermarket pipes can sound great. If I get a second bike it will be a Fury.
The Fury used an updated version of the VTX1300 powertrain and brakes, replacing the 38 mm CV carburetor of the VTX1300 engine with fuel injection (PGM-FI) using a single 38 mm throttle body. The Fury's undersquare engine also received modified cams and cylinder heads as well as a redesigned exhaust system.
Why I like your videos, you have the camera facing the road but still show the bike, as though we're riding along. Brilliant. Your conversation is a bit inane but can hold that against you, arnt we all at sometime. The mere proliferance of your videos and variety of bikes is truly remarkable. When ever I get ready to buy a bike I always look up your reviews. But I must admit I've been mean to you in some comments and for that I Apologize. But in my own defense I have to say you seem to be a nerd on the highest order. Loveable but nerdish. Thank you for all your hard work and may the Lord continue to bless you and all your endeavors. Hope to hear more from you.
I don't comment on youtube but I had to say that watching this video your someone I'd love to hang out with.. your spiritual wisdom you were spitting out is awesome... I've had hundreds of thousands of dollars and it makes no difference in happiness.. you must first acknowledge you are already happy with everything before you can enjoy life.. awesome video
Really the only difference with the Sabre and the Stateline was fender and skinny front wheel. Now for all the 1300 engines, install a Power commnder/Dynojet v 16-025 on with TsiTalon's "you'll die" map...the bike picks up 20+ % power.
Honda missed the bus on this bike for not coming out with it earlier. The renewed chopper craze was already receding when this bike was released. I have ridden a fury on an overnighter that was about 800 miles total and I was hurtin pretty bad but it was a fun ride.
Thank you Sean for your words of wisdom. It is true that we will never find permanent happiness in any material thing. Happiness can only be found within ourselves. I do very much enjoy your motorcycle review videos. They are are source of temporary happiness.
My BigDog Husky makes me happy when i ride it and when i dont. Just knowing i own it makes me happy. I also like the Fury and could care less what anyone thinks about what i ride.
The Honda Fury, Honda Stateline, Honda Sabre, and Honda Interstate all have the same 1300cc Vtwin. If I'm not mistaken, the Fury has a slightly different cam profile in it's 1300 than the others.. Read up on the Fury and Honda states that the Fury has a custom tuned cam design.
I just bought my first bike and it is a new 2023 Fury 0 miles. Thanks for your insight!!!! I'm glad you did this review. #Honda this guy basically sold me this bike for yall
What I love about having a bike is I have my lovely wife hop on the back. When the two of us ride there is a closeness between the two of us. The Bible says love your wife like Christ loves the church.
I had a 2003 VTX1800c, it was fuel injected. Mine had an aftermarket exhaust, air intake and a FI tuner. Great bike, but my biggest complaint was its lack of turning ability. It was great at highway speeds, but seemed to fight me on slow turns. I suspect it was because of the low profile front tire. But due to other life issues, I had to sell it. Now I'm on a custom chopper and couldn't be happier with the bike! But it's not one of those trailer queen, unrideable pieces of "art".
I've always wanted a motorcycle but couldn't figure out what until today. I met a guy on a harley and was telling him how I wanted something on the cheaper side. And that I liked the stretched out look like west coast choppers and iron horse and would probably end up with the rebel. He told me about the honda fury. I seen a picture and fell in love. My new goal in life thankyou for the video. It truly has me speechless.
Sean, I have been riding motorcycles since Feb 1974. I have been "searching" for the "perfect" motorcycle.... As of Sept 2021, I have yet to find "happiness" with the perfect motorcycle. I guess you are right with the Proverbs! Words of Wisdom = "There is no perfect motorcycle." God got that one right too.. Forgot to mention, I have owned over 40 motorcycles and still searching for that perfect bike.
My friend and I are all mostly vet and we call it wind therapy...best cure or at least managment of PTSD in the world a long ride and good lunch talking with the lord ....its like gold
> talking with the lord
so just talking to yourself then?
Indeed it is.
@@joshmayne2853 yes....my Son? Jk offcourse
Josh has no clue apparently...ignore.
Cool story bro
My friend rode his Tricked Out Fury to Sturgis. All the Harley riders were checking it out saying how awesome it was, wanting to know who built his custom chopper. When he told them it was a Honda Fury and the conversation stopped immediately.
Indeed...typical Harley Cult member behaviour...
Was your friend named bullshit?
@@bigrob7821 they would donthe same to my old 86 shadow it looked like a HD to the RUBS that didnt.know better because of the exhaust the previous owner put on and i had the paint done after some dru k knocked it over
@@bigrob7821 Yeh, I've met Bullshit a few times in my life.
@Phenomenon Boy I have owned (3) Harley's over the past 15 years. I don't disrespect anyone else's bike no matter if its a Enduro, Sport Bike or a Cruiser of any make and model. I have to say I have got a chuckle out of people on scooters calling them motorcycles. BUT, I did see a Honda Fury at a bike night here a few years ago and I've considered buying one for myself to have for shorter rides. Not EVERY Harley rider is disrespectful, we all have our favorite Auto maker and/or Bike manufacturer.
I'm a harley guy....but goddamn the fury line from Honda ridiculously gorgeous. And for the price, brand new, they're more affordable than most Harleys I've seen
Money doesn't buy happiness but having it sure does make life a hell of a lot less stressful
More money more problems
Agreed, I dont care what anyone says in todays day and age you need money to survive and a good amount of it, money is the name of the game, unfortunately it's the system they created
@@Jay-jb2vr no way man. The less money you have the bigger the problems are to you. People who have many problems but a lot of money would have even more problems with less money
@@nocensorship8092 nope. More money you have, more problems you have, more taxes you pay, more scams try to scam you, more people try to take from you
@@Jay-jb2vr well if you think money is a problem I'd be happy to take yours and then you can see how easy life without enough money can be.
The fury is one of most unique production bikes out there...i love when people say.."thats a honda?"...its ballsy and a head turner..kudos honda
but it's shaft driven and water cooled
@@chuckleibengood5440 your point being, oh utra relable. Won't overheat In Daytona traffic and the drive shaft will go forever with little maintenance.
Air cooled engines have limited time before they're history. Harley had their chance with the VRod but blew it.
Oh bearded one: Nope Honda gleaned 3 other models off of the Fury non of which made the cut and they dropped em. Stateline, Sabre and interstate
@@mooglemy3813 bro said that like he had a point
Just a cool fact, when honda released the valkyrie in 97, it had more American made parts the a harley
@@oquitar what do you mean "so"? He started with "just a cool fact", so that's what it is. A japanese bike with more domestic parts than a company who heavily relies on patriotism to sell bikes.
@Joseph Babica lol, thanks brother
@@oquitar So, you didn't comprehend?
@@oquitar you literally know nothing about bike culture if you say so to that statement
Oscar Fernandez so what?
My first bike is a 17 fury, bought brand new off the lot. I will NEVER get rid of it. Absolute love from first start and ride
I have the same, it's a great bike. Just putts down the road effortlessly. I've got my suspension set perfect for wt and put some z-bars on it so my back is straight. Of course I've drag pipes and a tuner on it. She's very happy. Black as night. I've removed a lot of crap off her, and still more simplicity is needed.all the control are going as soon as I can find a suitable substitute. Headlight I dispise as well as all turn indicators. The front fender is in the trash as well. All chrome plastic is to be replaced,etc.😊
Just sayin; motorcycles are one of the best therapists available.
i agree
Absolutely
When I have money I'm a lot happier than when I'm broke
Everyone
Minnie Pearl said, "I've been rich and I've been poor.. I like rich a whole lot better".
Till your rich and u have everything and it gets old u get tired and burnt out then start trying to take over the world like the Rothschild rockefeller bill gates mark zuckerberg and the rest I'm fine being poor God family food and a motorcycle is all u need I think the deal with money is people want to be able to have what they want when they want it which is nice till u have it all then what just keep buying multiples of everything just to feel a little thrill it's what everyone with money does I say invest in a relationship with God and and you're family it's what ultimately matters don't neglect it
@@shawnskinner1336 I want her 100% agree with you.... I love God I want my next life to be better than this one..... I guess it would be nice to have a lot of money to keep yourself busy in your times of depression
Yeah, whoever said ‘money can’t buy happiness’ has never been well and truly broke. As long as I have enough to get by, I don’t care about money in the slightest, but I’ve not had enough a couple times in my life and nothing besides money could’ve made me happy in those times. A nice sentiment, but it’s just fluff.
I'm loving this Brother in Christ...
I went from a vtx1800 to the Fury. I miss my 1800, but this Fury takes the sting out of it. Bought it stock, put on a C&C seat, Hardkrome 2into1 sideburner, and a Ginz scorpion sissy bar. Love it
Same engine as the vtx1300, but adapted to fuel injection and utilizes different camshaft profiles.
True
I owned a 2011 fury. Coming from someone who had the aftermarket exhaust, with those same exact mirrors, the fury is an awesome around town bike and can be taken on some midrange jaunts. The exhaust does get hot, still a extremely fun and extremely reliable bike! I'm 5'10" and it was the absolute best bike I've ever had! Got a Harley street glide by trading the fury in, and got rid of the Harley and went with a honda stateline.
Also those mirrors are absolutely crap by the way!
Dude I can’t tell you how awesome it is that you read that bible verse before you rode. Solid dude. Subscribed just now, excited to see more
Same
Whether or not I opt to buy a bike, the fact that I ran into this channel and get the Bible lesson seems a great deal more important. This is cool
Keeps me coming back btw
I am very seriously contemplating buying one of these bikes. I like the style, the deep rumble of the big v twin, and how low it sits seeing as I am only 5'8 and 180lbs. It's been years since I rode, but this thing seems like it would be a nice one to get back on two wheels with. My last two bikes were older sport bikes, but I've always loved the chopper look but not the chopper price or how they felt.
Yep, I think the Fury looks Great.
I wouldn't be happy without a motorcycle, therefore motorcycles make me happy😁
you not newer has happy you only think you have happy. real happy have if have bike.rider have better than no rider men.
I'd not be happy without one either. I'll never be without one. VMax here.
google translate really butchered your comment mate. @@mattivirta
@@mattivirta well said
Agreed. (2018 streetbob)
Had mine 7 years now. Might go get a new one. Absolutely the best bike I've ever owned, especially when I incorporate the cost of maintenance. I just can't drop the money on a Harley for their lack of innovation since the dawn of the 2000s.
I had a 2010 Honda Fury. That's the first year of the Fury as well. I gotta say that I absolutely loved it. The Fury is an awesome motorcycle, and a great choice for someone looking for a cool custom chopper style bike that still performs. I wouldn't classify it as a muscle bike. It's not super strong, but very torquey. It'll reach the top speeds very quickly and rides really good and smooth for the style of bike it is. It could definitely benefit from a 6th gear, as 65-70 mph, mine definitely wanted another gear. It would keep climbing and I'd be at 75-80 mph without even realizing it. Otherwise it is setup great as fun, sporty, easy to ride chopper style bike. The only reason I don't own mine anymore, is due to an accident that resulted in insurance totaling the bike. But I do miss it. It's a great bike to own and ride.
that sucks sorry to hear about your bike hope everyone was ok
Soon, there is going to be the rapture. It's when there will be trumpet sounds, and after the trumpet sounds, God will lift his people from here. Also, God said people should be living by the Bible. Amen, and God bless you.
When the Fury came out I was riding the first of my two St1300s. The ST had a 7 gallon tank and 300 miles in a tank was easy to do. The two or three gallons the Fury could carry seemed teeny. Almost like peanut tanks or something. The bike looked great but just limited. I’ve since learned they had a reasonable range and regret not at least taking a test drive
I personally own a 2016 model....love it!!! It is by far the best bike i have ever drove. Lots of aftermarket is out there.
They are the VTX1300. The only difference is the rake, bigger front wheel and wide rear tire
I bought a Fury after looking at them for it for a while. I brought it home and parked it in the garage. The wife gave me dirty looks and resentment. It's my release after working all week. She accepted that. I get cudos every time I ride it. It is custom chopper looking and gets second looks all the time. It's a Honda but it is not just a Honda. No one leaves me behind when they want to race on the freeway (or from a stop light). It's a Honda but it gets respect where ever I take it. I am having lots of fun riding it. It's been a long time since I've had so much enjoyment just riding; anywhere.
Had a fury, sold it, now I am UNHAPPY!!! Seriously though, I LOVE THE FURY. I will be getting another one. Just need to figure out how to tell the wife :-)
Sell the wife?....OOOOHH "tell" the wife! sorry.
Don't say a word to your wife just get it, after she leaves some day you'll be glad you had it
Tell her you let it go and then it came back to you, that's how you know it's "the one".
How? Tell her after you buy it. If you tell her before,she won't let you buy it.
Just get it. Tell her after the fact.
I love you videos. Informative, interesting, variety of bikes.... But the 1 thing I enjoy and especially respect are the words of wisdom. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Sorry, I don't follow, Motorcycles absolutely make me happy, I can't think about problems while cruizing along with the wind in my hair (read as helmet). Nothing reduces stress like a nice country ride even better with friends, total joy on two wheels.
I guess I'm a little different. I think about all my problems when I'm riding. But, since I'm riding, I think of everything in a different light.. it helps me get to the bottom of things. It really helps me out. What would we do without these machines ??
I did an experiment one time while I was having weekly doctors visits.. One day I drove my car in and my heart rate was at about 98 BPM.. then the next visit which was a few days later I rode my bike with NO changes from the previous visit and my heart rate was at 85 BPM.. So yes riding a bike on a gorgeous day is a very relaxing experience
Nah man. As an unhappy person, my motorcycle makes me happy. I havent had a moment I didnt enjoy on it yet. Mashing through the gears had me laughing hysterically. It might not change your life, but itll make you happy.
If you laugh hysterically while meshing through the gears, Then maybe you should seek a good psychiatrist as no matter how you look at it, it’s just plain odd.
a 6 Absolutely! I mean your meth lab could be on fire! Girlfriend is being held hostage by the cartel and get on your bike and shit just melts away! lol But seriously NOTHING MAKES ME HAPPIER in my shit life!
Man, I love everything about this video. Within the past few weeks, when I wake up around 3am or when I’m laying in bed and can’t fall asleep, I’ll watch one of these videos of you riding. It’s almost like a guilty pleasure 😆
But this video in particular is really great. I love all the verses and sometimes a prayer at the beginning, keep that up, but todays verse was great.
I love all your videos test drive videos but this one was my favorite. I love the bike and now want one for myself 😆 everything about this video was great. Keep it up
(Yes I know I’m watching 2-4yr old videos, but I love this style of videos. Your audio is perfectly clear!)
The only things I disliked about my fury was the rev limiter and speed limiter. Top speed is 100mph and rpm is around 4k or so. It hits 100mph very quick but I feel like my bike needs that choke collar removed if you know what I meen. I want my bike to show the 100% potential that it should be showing. I'll deffently be putting that device into the computer for the rev limiter, rpm, and 30% (I think) more horse power I believe. Vance and Himes exaust installed made a very HUGE DIFFERENCE in sound as well. I love it!
Ditto for me. I have a V&H 2 into 1 (since discontinued) and a Power Commander V... it *feels* faster but I can't say for sure... I'm thinking about hitting a dyno or 1/4 mi track to see what it does
I feel in love with they Fury after I rode one at demo it was so comfortable, felt light, and had good power. That one blacked out looks so good!
That exhaust note...i had a hard time paying attention to you.
Money is a little like food: you need a certain amount of it to live, and especially if you've had to go without it, it's easy to believe that more is always better, but beyond a certain point, having more can be harmful to your wellbeing. "give me neither poverty nor riches... Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain." Proverbs 30:8, 9
BEAUTIFUL passage. Perfect.
Thanks Chris
thank you!
Not a believer, but the food and money analogy is most appropriate.
Enjoy your day.
I wanted to tell you, I really appreciate the scriptures you share on here. God bless!! The only thing that I can't get around and I'm not sure why is the fact that to me the gas tank doesn't look like it fits the bike because the frame rails aren't covered by the tank. I will have to agree and disagree with you on choppers. I love choppers! But, like you said, they have to be ride-able and comfortable. However, if you can't handle a bike properly and want to be able to do it better no matter what bike you ride. Then, you need to go to the Ride Like a Pro channel to learn how to handle a bike.
Yes, it's a vtx1300 with fuel injection and a smoother power/torque curve.
No, its not lol. Not even the same motor.
Yeah it is lol I own a 2016 fury lol
@Alex Eidenier lol, no, its NOT. Dont argue with me on this!
@Alex Eidenier still, "not" a VTX nor the same motor!
The Fury 1300 engine is the same block basically as the older 1300 VTX, only now they are fuel injected. That may make them a bit more responsive so you have that but they have alot less horse power than the older 1300 VTX (about 10 less hp)
Seeing the Stryker is 1300cc (which I own), I'd think it would be best to compete against that instead of the 1900cc Raider.
True, though a Fury 1800 would be interesting too.
No the stryker has a smaller build...the raider is more built like the fury
thats a great point, and the stryker would be a better comparison to the fury. right on
He Compared it to raider because the Stryker is a lot smaller even though it has the same size engine
There is a video where they compare it to a Stryker
I love the prayer in the beginning. I’ve been thinking maybe I’m too old to have a bike at age. I haven’t had one since college. I got rid of it at my dad’s urging. He’s a dentist. And when a dentist is called into the ER it’s a motorcycle reason he says. Every single time. He paints a terrible picture from there in trying to reattach the mandible to a surgeon removing handle bars from the torso. A surgeon delicately working on a hand. An Anesthesiologist earning their pay. The prayer made that all boil back up. Guess I’m not ready. The texters and the Karens are too prelevant. Beyond the drunks. Way beyond. Thank you too for your outlook on life. I think you’re totally onto something. I quite my job Monday. Just quit. Nothing in the pipe. Lots in savings but not a lifetime. Everyday I do what I want. I field calls in which everyone is so worried. I drive non hitch hikers, I love magnets and electricity. Now money. I do think everyone should try and spend $100,000 in one month. Any one purchase may be $5000. You will be shocked that with 3 nice $80,000-10
It sounds good. I've compared and looked at several, my preference is the Raider.
@SrkCycles, I own a 2010 Fury, and the original bike, in its OEM config, houses a 40+ mpg, 1300cc engine that produces a measly 50-55 HP (from factory). But by having that high flow intake, and those sick pipes installed on there, it throws the fuel map out of whack (as it would with any car or bike). And so, there is very likely either a Power Commander on it, or the ECU might have a sticker slapped on the side specifying it's been reprogrammed (probably by Guhl Motors). So if this Fury is putting down upwards of 70+ to the floor, then it would have almost certainly been reprogrammed; and you're SOO right: the Fury, with opened up parameters, is an amazing ride!! Like adding a whole 'nother cylinder to the bike; giving it some soul; some gumption! Lol.
I'm 5'7", so I'm a bit more stretched over the tank than Shawn, but I can break that back tire loose at stop lights, and even smoked a Caddy ATS down the highway. I also scrape the pegs going thru Lime Creek Rd at nearly every corner and she just keeps on leanin'. So I guess it's fair to say it is definitely a confidence-inducing cruiser. Actually scraped my left boot heel down a bit... As the angle of your foot sits your heel a tad-bit lower than the peg.
For it being a cruiser, gimmicked as a "factory chopper", it rides really nice, is very forgiving, extremely comfortable (unless you're the passenger), and it gets mistaken (by HD riders) for being a "custom" Harley all the time. But, for real, the back seat was likely an afterthought, haha! It really is a solo bike, with a small pillion for bar-hopping on the weekends. If she has to sit on that darn thing for more than an hour, I'm in trouble. Hahaha!
Here's some wisdom for you Sean. Riding my motorcycle gives me happiness. Having enough money to pay my bills and financial obligations gives me feelings of confidence and well being. Doing the job that I love makes me happy knowing that there are many other jobs out there that suck the soul out of you. Knowing that I am loved and cared for by my family makes me happy. All of this and just being a decent person is worthy of happiness. Didn't need a book to tell me this stuff, after 60 years of living on this globe it just makes good sense. I just wish others would come to the same conclusion.
My 2010 Honda Stateline was rough on my lower back. I'm 6' 1" and I wish I had spent more time on the initial test drive. After 1hr of riding my lower back was trashed. The Stateline and the Fury are basically the same bike. I used it mainly for around town driving and I'm glad the bike wasn't too expensive. Still a fun bike, a lot of compliments, and the 1300 is a nice motor.
I owned a Fury it was a good bike, but after a while I felt like a pretend chopper guy. I would come across guys who built their choppers, and the Fury just seemed fake next to their bikes. The Fury is a great and reliable, but maybe choppers are more about the soul of a bike then how well it’s engineered.
WHATEVER
I didn't buy my Fury to be a chopper wannabe, I bought it because it felt right. If I threw a Sumo-X kit and some other mods on it, then it would be a chopper
I'm a Marine 10years in the Coprs multiple tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. I have really bad PTSD and when my Anxiety and depression gets bad riding my YZF-R1 or my Victory Hammer, my ninja ZX10R or my Harley makes me happy it's the best therapy. I almost bought a 2010 Honda Fury the Victorys look similar to the Furys but the Victory has more power. But Honda does build a really reliable bike.
The Fury looked like it would be really fun to cruise around on. I liked the Sound also. Plus you get the Honda reliability. Great Video Sean. 👍👍
I have a 07 VTX 1300r with 38k on it I've never had one problem with it , other than tires /brakes...
I've had it for 8 year's ...
Great bike's in my opinion..
Keep up the great video's....
"A motorcycle won't make you happy..." Ever see a patient ride a motorcycle to a shrink's office?
motorcycle ad in thailand counters this claim! Showed a group of old men living terrible lives and all their worries go away when they ride motorcycles!!
Actually....I lost my wife and kids to the world. I fell in love with a young lady and she died from injuries from a fall. I was injured and I needed help. I rode my motorcycle, drove my Jeep, high top Chevy Express 2500, and my Ford Fusion SE to therapy and group sessions. ( I was all alone and taking a sabbatical from work. I needed to keep all the batteries charged....I would have drove my "Breaking Bad Bounder" if the parking lot had been bigger.)
I was never actually suicidal....I rode with ALL gear, all the time. Sometimes I wore my hi-vis. Areostitch Roadcrafter suit and matching Arai helmet for a 6 mile ride! I didn't mind dying but I didn't want to become seriously injured, financially ruined, unable to work, on top of being all alone and suddenly not able to attract women as well as I could before "the crash".
The therapy helped. Riding my ST1300 gave me satisfaction and people seemed to be interested in getting to know me . I won't say that having and actually RIDING a nice motorcycle will make everyone happy but for me it has been a rewarding experience.
Five years later, I just completed a 10 day, 3300 mile tour on that same bike and I have been married for 2 years. We believe that God prepared us to love and care for each other. My beautiful wife came all the way from the Philippines and while I have been running up and down the roads on a fast Honda.
I did the other day
The Fury, VT 1300CX is the same motor that was in the VTX 1300.
I'm looking at a 2011 fury with cobra pipes do these bikes have to have a fuel tuner ? Love the looks of the fury and being dependable.
I has a Honda Shadow 1100 Spirt and it was my favorite until I got me a Fury. I love this bike. I shaped my mirrors as soon as I could.
How many CCs? I think they could have put a slightly bigger gas tank on this bike. Looks like a lot of unused space right below the front of the gas tank.
HumGuitar it's 1300cc and yes, the tank is tiny. The Yamaha Stryker has better numbers performance wise and a larger gas tank, plus the Stryker is belt drive. The Fury is shaft driven 🤮
HumGuitar I went with a Stryker: corners better (road both), bigger gas tank (seat is comfortable I like long trips), metal fenders (Honda is plastic, my preference). The fury is super cool just wasn’t for me. Bye the way the 1300 in both bikes are solid as a rock.
Jonny G thanks, I'll take all the advice I can get. I'm only going to be able to afford to buy one motorcycle, so I want to get the one that is best for me. I've watched a few videos/reviews of the Stryker, and it seems (because of being so low) that it is prone to scrape the pegs. Do you have that problem? I really like the looks of the Stryker though, and I would also like to take some long trips with my wife as well. The Stryker's bigger gas tank and more comfortable seat puts it much higher on my list than the Fury. I'm also looking hard at the 650 Vulcan S and the V-Strom 650, mainly for economic reasons. The Vulcan 900 is also a possibility.
HumGuitar I liked my Stryker, it will definitely scrape the pegs if you corner aggressive. I don't think it's Max lean angles are really much different from many other cruisers out there, but it's been a while so I'd have to look it up. Honestly I wouldn't worry too much about pegs scraping, if they do you certainly don't want to go much farther but I never felt like the bike couldn't handle itself in the corners. Felt pretty light and nimble in all honesty I've you get used to the rear end feeling like it's taking forever to turn in. Definitely a different feeling from bikes with less rake / shorter wheelbases. For the $ you can't really beat the Stryker of the bikes you listed - IMO
Thanks man

@@teektalon3310 that's the plan man, you as well!
If you want a chopper. The Fury is the best bike made. The Fury is the only real chopper. The Rader was not a true chopper. The problem was Honda made the Fury just after the end of the Chopper Craze. By then you could pick up a $40,000 dollar Big Dog for $10- $15 thousand dollars. Had Honda released the Fury during the Chopper Craze, they would have been back ordered. .....And yes it's the VTX 1300, which uses a single pin crank, which gives it the great sound. God bless you brother.
I have the rarer 2013 VT1300CS Sabre which has the old school power of the carbed vtx of 75HP 100Tq with the bigger tank than fury and smaller rear tire. I hate the fury cluster mucking up the handle bar, mine is still on tank which is perfect! My only complaint is the frame scraping on turns, they could have done a better job at tucking that in.

@Tuco Malatesta don't watch his vids then...
@Tuco Malatesta you took Jesus's "teachings" out of context. Jesus also says to spread his word though all that you do.
@Tuco Malatesta that referring to someone who is praying only so that they make themselves look like a true believer
Dude. You must not have rid a Texas Chopper by American IronHorse. Perfect rake at 42 degrees. S&S 110ci. 105 ponies. Baker right side drive. 280mm rear tire. When you hit the throttle it’s pulling a trigger.
That bike was the bike for 34k. The Slammer was the best cruiser style with air ride precision shocks.
Fury has beautiful lines. I’d buy one. I was an IronHorse Franchise dealer...so As Lynyrd Skynyrd says “ I know a little”.
Honda made 4 variations Fury, Sabre (chopper) and State line, Interstate (cruiser)
All with the same engine
I have a 2010, absolutely love it. At 6'3" it's a good frame for tall people. Also it's literally the same 1300 engine, just fuel injected.
Where did they hide the radiator?
@@TheBandit7613 in front of the motor between the two frame rails.
@@fishnevada I thought that was an oil cooler. That's a compact radiator.
The bike ia a work of art.
I love how on the beginning of most of these videos he says "We have here a......I'm not sure what year it is".
Just asking your expert opinion. Would you recommend the Honda fury as first bike ? ( So far it`s the one that sticks everytime I go to any motorcycle auto show & dealership.
Was my first bike and I'll never get rid of it
The term is factory custom. The fury is a great looking bike.
I’ve always thought it was an ugly looking one and still do.
1974-1976 Suzuki RE5s were sitting the dealer showroom floor until the 1980s. I wish I had the money then. They marked them down, but still more than a Kaw 1000.
Love to see one with the VTX1800 motor and taller bars
1800 fury would be a blast!
I have been saying the furry needs the 1800 engine
I'm waitin for it too. Talkin to the guys at the shop here, they are "supposed" to be making a very limited production one soon. It was originally designed for an 1800 but honda said it was too much power for the weight and design. As soon as the put it out there, I'll be making a down for one, still not gettin rid of my 17 fury though,,,, it's my baby!
Happiness is a feeling. It is completely contained within you and not attached or dependent on anything material. Material can only bring temporary happiness and over time simply becomes like any other drug and the constant pursuit of material happiness only makes addicts of the material world. Which means complete bondage to the state of suffering and false identity with the material world. Hence all over the world of mankind.. ppl live with complaining state of being. All material is limited it can only bring limited/false happiness. Happiness in the human condition is the same as being free from desires. Which means to be complete.. whole.. such that there is no need for anything in order to be "happy". This is known as the state of contentment. Humans must know that you become/are the result of the thoughts you practice. This is the most important practice or conditioning of the human state of being, for all that we manifest in life begins as a thought in the mind. When we become aware of our thought conditioning this also leads one to begin to question the origin of their thoughts and how outside environment factors strongly contribute to influencing what thoughts are occupying our minds. So to use a fitness analogy... What kind of reps are you putting in with your thoughts? Are you constantly in pursuit of material desires? Well, that means you are conditioning your state of being to search for contentment in only the material realm. Man can choose to either believe in the need for the material desire.. OR.. the straight path is to attempt to remove the desire from self.. or at least ask WHY do I feel this desire? Follow this path.. and poof.. Happiness! How simple it is to be fully happy.. like an ego-less and identity free infant...content and at Peace..free from internal conflict and being whole..ONE.. when one has been liberated from the concepts of material desires. This is the state of perpetual unlimited happiness. Seek the practices and train your being such that you annihilate the ego and become truly free in being...break the bondage.. become no-thing.. such that you may posses the will to love everything(including your own being, maybe if we fully love ourselves as is, we have no need of the material desires)..free from the inherent biases that come from being bonded to the relative, contextually based "world of parts".. you will no longer be in a place where you are looking to receive.. but you will be so fulfilled that all you want to do is give. But nothing may have changed in your material world.. in fact.. you may find your self with far less material.. but fully filled w Eternal Joy.
Man I fell in love with the fury as soon as I saw it. Took a while but got a 17. It aint the fastest or most powerfull but it looks damn cool and rides well. Sux that ya gotta stop for gas every 100 miles. But you will get attention! BTW no passenger pegs or seat came with mine
Yes, but I’ve been unhappy on a motorcycle and I’ve been unhappy off of motorcycle. I’d rather be unhappy on a motorcycle any day.
Sean is very near to Amish country. Trying to figure out what an Amish motorcycle would look like. Picture a Harley trike, but it has to be towed by a horse.
Honestly...sean from srk cycles deals motorcycles. I've not EVER seen a video where he doesnt talk a bike up. Not the thing to watch if you wanna buy a nice bike folks. This is a man selling bikes and making $
I feel that the only reason they didnt sell well in the beginning is that we were in the thick of the great recession and a lot of luxury items weren't selling well back then. They're a great looking bike!
Just a heads up guys, this isn't a stock fury. It's got aftermarket exhaust, intake, and mirrors on it for sure. The stock exhaust sounds better but a little quiet for what it should be. I know this, Because I own a 13 fury
Thank You Brother for your reading of scriptures. It truly shows your character!!
This bike and the star stryker were some of the coolest bikes to come out in the 2000s-2010s, and of course the raider and warrior and mean streak and the vtx1800 were all awesome
Sickest bike from Honda. These should sell much better.
The problem was that they came out the same price as the Yamaha Raider at $15K. Fury has a 1300cc/80ci while my Raider has a 1854cc/113ci motor, fury has 57hp to raider's 90 stock hp, 200mm rear wheel compared to Raider's 210mm rear tire but Raider can go to 240mm with no mods just throw it on stock rim, gas tank 3.8 to Raider's 4.2 gallon tank, rake 32 degrees to Raider's 40 degrees on front forks. Now the Honda Fury comes at $10,500 compared to the Yamaha Raider at $15,200.
If I couldn't get a Raider it was my second choice. Great looking and riding bike. Chopper look with Honda dependability. A custom chopper at a Honda price. After you throw an aftermarket pipe on it, it sounds great.
BUT! That Fury is a very sweet bike. Maybe not AS fast, blah blah woof woof, but it will get you down the highway just fine.
Definitely. I agree that Fury is a fine ride, it will get you down the highway and sound good doing it. I was just saying I preferred the Raider's look and feel more than the Fury's. But I still think the Fury is fine and with the right aftermarket pipes can sound great. If I get a second bike it will be a Fury.
The tiny fuel tank and the crappy Honda dealer were the deal breakers for me
The Fury used an updated version of the VTX1300 powertrain and brakes, replacing the 38 mm CV carburetor of the VTX1300 engine with fuel injection (PGM-FI) using a single 38 mm throttle body. The Fury's undersquare engine also received modified cams and cylinder heads as well as a redesigned exhaust system.
The engine block remained the same. GOOD EYE!
just bought the 2019. Awesome video I luv the way you love the Lord also.
ant d just got a 2019 myself and good lord i wanna ride it all the time
Hey brother hows that fury treating ya ? I really want one just not sure
You won’t regret it. I have a 2015 and it’s comfortable on long hauls.
Why I like your videos, you have the camera facing the road but still show the bike, as though we're riding along. Brilliant. Your conversation is a bit inane but can hold that against you, arnt we all at sometime. The mere proliferance of your videos and variety of bikes is truly remarkable. When ever I get ready to buy a bike I always look up your reviews. But I must admit I've been mean to you in some comments and for that I Apologize. But in my own defense I have to say you seem to be a nerd on the highest order. Loveable but nerdish. Thank you for all your hard work and may the Lord continue to bless you and all your endeavors. Hope to hear more from you.
I'm gonna start a motorcycle channel and give a long preachy paragraph about the word of Zeus before every video.
You did not need to watch it douchebag
Yep same motor as the vtx1300 just fuel injected. The fury's are basically the vtx reimagined, and I love them.
I was definitely happier when I had my Harley looking to get a fury
I don't comment on youtube but I had to say that watching this video your someone I'd love to hang out with.. your spiritual wisdom you were spitting out is awesome... I've had hundreds of thousands of dollars and it makes no difference in happiness.. you must first acknowledge you are already happy with everything before you can enjoy life.. awesome video
Money can bring WAY more opportunity for happiness than poverty.
Really the only difference with the Sabre and the Stateline was fender and skinny front wheel. Now for all the 1300 engines, install a Power commnder/Dynojet v 16-025 on with TsiTalon's "you'll die" map...the bike picks up 20+ % power.
Great video, Sean is a good honest guy
Jesse James helped design the Fury and built a prototype for them to base the actual production bike off of. Pretty cool.
He starts talking about the bike at 4:15
Thanks, really.
Thanks I wanted to hear about the motorcycle not go to church
THANK YOU
Mvp
Honda missed the bus on this bike for not coming out with it earlier. The renewed chopper craze was already receding when this bike was released. I have ridden a fury on an overnighter that was about 800 miles total and I was hurtin pretty bad but it was a fun ride.
Thank you Sean for your words of wisdom. It is true that we will never find permanent happiness in any material thing. Happiness can only be found within ourselves. I do very much enjoy your motorcycle review videos. They are are source of temporary happiness.
My BigDog Husky makes me happy when i ride it and when i dont. Just knowing i own it makes me happy. I also like the Fury and could care less what anyone thinks about what i ride.
Who'd be stupid enough to mock a Big Dog? I want the K9 so bad I can hardly stand it -- but I won't EVER give up my Fury for it.
Love the bike and your videos but seriously PLEASE USE TURN SIGNALS! :):):)
The Honda Fury, Honda Stateline, Honda Sabre, and Honda Interstate all have the same 1300cc Vtwin. If I'm not mistaken, the Fury has a slightly different cam profile in it's 1300 than the others.. Read up on the Fury and Honda states that the Fury has a custom tuned cam design.
It’s cool that you can buy a chopper stock
I just bought my first bike and it is a new 2023 Fury 0 miles. Thanks for your insight!!!! I'm glad you did this review. #Honda this guy basically sold me this bike for yall
What I love about having a bike is I have my lovely wife hop on the back. When the two of us ride there is a closeness between the two of us. The Bible says love your wife like Christ loves the church.
"and gave Himself for it". Ephesians 5:25 Amen brother. MARANATHA
I had a 2003 VTX1800c, it was fuel injected. Mine had an aftermarket exhaust, air intake and a FI tuner. Great bike, but my biggest complaint was its lack of turning ability. It was great at highway speeds, but seemed to fight me on slow turns. I suspect it was because of the low profile front tire. But due to other life issues, I had to sell it. Now I'm on a custom chopper and couldn't be happier with the bike! But it's not one of those trailer queen, unrideable pieces of "art".
VTX 1300 has same motor as fury
Fury is part of new VT1300 line. 1312cc. Liquid cooled, single pin nice sound.
how come it can't go as fast? vtx 1300 top speed is 130mph. fury is 110???
I've always wanted a motorcycle but couldn't figure out what until today. I met a guy on a harley and was telling him how I wanted something on the cheaper side. And that I liked the stretched out look like west coast choppers and iron horse and would probably end up with the rebel. He told me about the honda fury. I seen a picture and fell in love. My new goal in life thankyou for the video. It truly has me speechless.
The stateline is a nice bike.
I like the tank on the Stateline
Came here for the Honda Fury. First 5 minutes added and validated what I was learning this morning in my personal life.
Loving the videos and I like the fact that we're all here because of our love for motorcycles. :)
Sean, I have been riding motorcycles since Feb 1974. I have been "searching" for the "perfect" motorcycle.... As of Sept 2021, I have yet to find "happiness" with the perfect motorcycle. I guess you are right with the Proverbs! Words of Wisdom = "There is no perfect motorcycle." God got that one right too.. Forgot to mention, I have owned over 40 motorcycles and still searching for that perfect bike.
