Eddie Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 I seen this bike at the International show . I never paid attention to it as it has been around for a few years. Very comfortable. I want one . Anybody ever rode one. It sure has some nice lines.
wrenchrob Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 I have never rode one either but I think they definitely look very cool
Stanman Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 I guess I'm different, but it looks too "choppered" me. I don't like it at all.
Eck Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 A friend of mine has one in Painesville, Ohio. Every time I have come up to Freebirds Maintenance day, I saw him, and rode with him. I never rode his but I did sit on it, and I like being flat footed on the ground with knees able to bend. I cant do this on my GW. He had his for two years and I heard that last year he sold it and bought a GW 1800. I didnt see him last year so I havent had a chance to find out why he sold it, but he always talked highly of it whe he had it.
Condor Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 I bet he doesn't do a whole lot of touring with that thing. I wonder what the rider feels like after doing a couple of hundred mile ride.... Maybe that's why he traded it for a GW??
Wade 2000 Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 My brother was looking for a bike last year and really considered a Fury I think it was the Interstate version. He decided the seat was too narrow and hard ( split the boys) so he ended up with a Road Star and he's very happy with it
ediddy Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 Too plain. Now I would love to have a yamaha raider. It has class.
Wade 2000 Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 Too plain. Now I would love to have a yamaha raider. It has class. And a big wide seat! I could do some miles on a Raider but I don't think I could on a Fury
ACE50 Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 Too plain. Now I would love to have a yamaha raider. It has class. Oh ya!
ZRX1100 Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 Sat on one at the bike show, most uncomfortable thing I've ever been on and I've ridden a CBR929RR
Skid Posted February 10, 2013 Posted February 10, 2013 A friend of mine had one he rode a good bit. He liked it real well. He done a couple minor mods to the exhaust. Very clean looking bike.
Eddie Posted February 10, 2013 Author Posted February 10, 2013 The bike is no touring bike. I thought the same thing about being uncomfortable and was real surprised how untrue that was. You can really stretch out on it.
PBJ Posted February 10, 2013 Posted February 10, 2013 there is a version that comes with a windshield and hard bags its designated a Tourer like the old Honda shadow tour.
