Not really sure how I feel about it. Cant say I dont like it and I cant say I do. Just going to have to let it grow on me. That is the way I am. I have to know more and learn more before I make a decision. Right now I can say I dont, but tomorrow is another day.

Peace.

I want one! At last a chopper with Honda reliability! Might just have to test ride one of these....

I feel the same way as you do! Just got to ride one of these and then I will know for sure! Fuel injected also...........WOW! That should make a difference with the pep of the motor!

can't wait for more info on it, ie like engine size, gas tank looks awfully small, still in all it is a sweet looking machine. Just looked again, front & rear disc brake, looks shaft driven too. Maybe a 900?

Thats what I heard about the Fury also 1300 cc.....Thing about bikes like that its hard to make your own without a custom paint job. Yours will look just like everbody else's
If I had to go buy a V-Twin tomorrow it would be the Suzuki M 109R. From what Lamont ( LaMonster ) claims this is one of the baddest on the planet.

I hate to be brand dis-loyal but the suzy looks really fine. The fury I can live without.

The M109 is a cool looking bike. But I've always heard/read that Suzuki and Kawasaki quality/reliability trail Honda and Yamaha. They are still good (better than BMW and Harley) but not as high as the big two.

I like the Suzuki bikes. S83 and the M series. But if given an equal bike from Yamaha or Honda, I'd have to go with quality and reliability. But maybe that's old thinking.

I'm a member of the honda shadow forum and generally the technical section is filled with "dead battery" type problems. If I peruse the Harley forums, I get "oil leak" type issues. I have not perused the Kawa or Suzi forums. And, like I say, there are are couple of Kawa and Suzi's I really like.....

No, not for me, don't like it at all.
Think I'll keep on chopping my own X to make it a chopper.
Have a good riding weekend

Found a couple more shots over on the Big Bike Riders web site.I ride too much for a bike like this ( nowhere for my stuff ) . Would make a nice bar hopper I guess.Hard saddlebags and a driver's backrest along with a big ass car tire and I might ride it

Not even if it were free.

I like it. To bad the price is high

I saw a pic on the VTXOA site. It showed a rider on the bike. The bike as a whole looks small. For us big-ol-boys, we would look like the fat kid on a BMX. Like I said before, I would have to sit on one before I made my final decision. But as things progress I am loosing interest by the day.

Peace.

Do they have them priced already?

Or is it speculation?

Where is the price??

11,000 to 16,000

What I heard was $17,000.00 'bout $10,000.00 too much if you ask me.

I think I just vomited a little in my mouth. Please stop posting pics of this .... ummm... thing.

Sorry, I know a lot of you like it, but it's just not my style, plus they are about 3 years late on coming out with that type of bike as the useless bike trend is rapidly declining and the posers are going back to jacked up SUV's and $70k pickups now that fuel prices have gone down and they learned that pretending to ride isn't that big of a thrill.

Oh, sorry for my rants. I didn't mean to add ugly to the thread, I just couldn't help voicing my opinion.
