Yeah, that's NOT the Fury, that was an old 1800 VTX that was toyed arond with by Honda R&D in 2003, never made it past this test stage pic.

As I said above, that is NOT the Fury. That is a very old spy pic of a VTX 1800 Honda was trying out back in 2003. The ONLY pic of the Fury so far is that out of focus, badly lit pic with "FURY" over it

Honda may be a bit behind the latest two-wheeled trends with its upcoming factory chopper motorcycle. The raked-out style had its heyday a couple of years ago with more functional styles (http://www.autoblog.com/2008/11/24/enter-the-rumormill-harley-davidson-quietly-launches-xr1200-in/) making a big comeback as of late, but there is still a market for long, low bikes with fat rear rubber. Just ask Harley and Victory. Interestingly, Honda's production Fury chopper reportedly uses a rather small 1300cc fuel injected V-Twin engine, which we would assume is a descendant of the smaller-displacement VTX line. Either it's air-cooled or Honda's engineers have done an admirable job of hiding the radiator and associated plumbing. We've also been told to expect a shaft drive, hidden rear shock, 200mm rear tire and the bare minimum number of badges. Add in Honda's stellar reliability and this looks like a winner... five years ago. Price? Rumored to be around $13,000, which would make this a major bargain compared to other factory choppers. Maybe there's something to this new bike after all.

I hope that's not it. Steve has his heart set on a real chopper and this thing looks like a raked 1300. Our dealership is supposed to get the fury in the early spring (he says) and he did say they told him 1300. I don't know yet, but it has to be alot more drastic than this.

This is NOT the Fury, it is an 1800 from 2003 and is long gone from the minds of Honda. I know what those sites say, but that bike is OLD and GONE. The blurry pic above is THE ONLY pic of the Fury so far

The pic on the right IS the Fury;


The pic on the left IS NOT THE Fury;
