I just have it primed until I get the rest of the chrome and then I'll spray it. Then I have a 66 chevelle 4 door that made a brief appearance in the movie Rudy about a Notre Dame football player. It's like a gold color with 283 and powerglide. Thanks for the advice about riding. I live In South Bend which is not far from the Michigan border and the snow might be flying this weekend.

I live just south of Valparaiso.

Troop you're not that far from me. Got my bike home today and haven't smiled this much in a long time. It's a bad looking bike and everybody I show it to agrees. They can't believe it's a Honda, lol.

Congrats & Welcome, Kevin.

The Fury was my first bike and I have zero regrets. The best feature of that bike ... are the family members on this Forum.

Welcome, ride safe, and get ready to write more checks (on mods)

With all the blue-hairs returning for the Winter here, riding in or out of town is risky My head's always on a swivel ... but this time of year it's on a gimbal

Yeah Troop we'll have to meet up when the warmer weather comes back. I don't think there's many fury riders around here in my area.

I'm pissed u found a matte bike..was my first choice and none were available when i decided to pull the trigger...got black instead but still happy. joining this forum is one of the best things new owners can do,,a bunch of great, down to earth and smart guys/gals. as far as mods go..air cleaner and pipes are a great start. check out gallery section for other ideas. good luck but you still suck for finding a matte LOL....almost forgot..i used to own a 70 SS 396 L78 4sp with air...had the build sheet and protecta plate..sold it for family reasons...post some pix of your chevelles

I couldn't believe I found one either because it was my first choice. When I emailed them and they said that there was 6 in stock and mentioned the colors I couldn't believe it. To find a 2010 matte with no miles is crazy and I don't understand why nobody wanted it because everybody who has seen my bike loves the color and the bike. The dealer said they sold alot of the blue and black ones. That 70 sounded like a nice car, I'll get some pics posted up soon.
