Description

My bike is in great shape, nly seen rain two times and there is no damage at all. Kept clean in my garage at all times. Had the Cobra Swept pipes installed at the dealer and only other custom options are then air intake system and cover (have rain cover for it too). The bike will come with handle bar bag and behind riding seat bag both made by saddleman and great quality.

The Fury's distinctive frame, odywork, nd components for its front and rear suspension were designed by a team of stylists fromHonda R&D Americas(HRA) working with engineers from Honda's Asaka R&D Center (HGA) in Japan. Honda's design goal was to lift thechoppertype of motorcycle from a niche market item to the quality, uantity and affordability of a mass-produced product. Archetypal chopper styling originated in the Fury's spidery, ong wheelbase frame and faux-hardtail rear end. Its frame geometry raised the steering head, tretched the fork tubes, nd gave the Fury a radical aspect while actually using the same rake angle (32 degrees) as its forerunners, heHonda VTX series.

Preliminary specifications showing that the Fury had a rake (caster angle) of 38degrees[were later corrected to show the angle as 32degrees.

Some design elements of the Fury, uch as its narrow 21 inch front wheel and very low seat height, re found not only on choppers but appear routinely on cruiser motorcycles as well. For instance, he contemporaneous 750ccHonda Shadow, pdated in 2007 as the Spirit C2 model, ad the same front wheel dimensions as the Fury, nd an even lower seat height.

The Fury used an updated version of the VTX1300 powertrain and brakes, eplacing the 38 mm CV carburetor of the VTX1300 engine with fuel injection (PGM-FI) using a single 38 mmthrottle body. The Fury'sundersquareengine also received modifiedcamsandcylinder headsas well as a redesigned exhaust system.The fuel injection system was part of the engine's exhaust emission controls, n addition to a secondary air injection system and two catalytic converters; Honda also produced a state-specific version of the Fury to meet theCalifornia Air Resources Boardemissions standards.

Engineers paid particular attention to engine cooling, n order to make the radiator and its hoses as inconspicuous as possible, et still function effectively. This was achieved by running the top radiator hose underneath a valve cover, nd by situating a thin radiator inside the downtubes of the double-cradle frame. The Fury was given a five-speed transmission and ashaft-drivesystem similar to its VTX predecessors, ut the shaft was enclosed by an aluminum swingarm assembly unique to the Fury.
