It seems i was getting a bunch of gruff from some big dog guys on my furby..grrrr, But i got the last laugh they commented on all the mods i have to do to get where there bike is at, "Chrome and all" That i would spend what they did, heres the kicker while i said we boys talk about mods they talk about oil leaks, trans. problems, oil leaks, carb problems, hard starting , oh and did i say oil leaks. so i guess i will stick with mods. cuz i hate pushing a bike................


Should Have called it FURY vs Yappy Puppy

Well, I guess if you really wanta piss them off wrap 10 ft 3/8 yellow line around your rear seat and when they ask what that is for, you can say you just had to tow in a big dog!

That's too funny.

LOL mental, that's a good one

Just tell them you have people on this forum that own BD and a FURY. Even they say the Fury is more of a practical bike daily driver bike, and the BD is more for here and there to turn a little more heads. I believe Chopped has both and another 1-2 more people

"The one with the most expensive toys wins" was a quote I remember when thinking about this topic!
Big Dogs are cool and pricey but....
Reliability comes from long service times, with that being said, the Big D Mastiff is a awesome spec. Look at the finished product thats where a good deal of the cost goes, plus this bike is all assembled by Big Dog. The cost of each vendor producing OEM products goes into that massive price tag.
S&S guys told me the motors run 9k, 1/3rd of the price of a Big Dog is the motor. Still the Mastiff looks the best to me of all the production choppers IMO!!!

Honda has long service machines that sell thousands a year due to practical PROVEN SPECS. And the ability to turn out massive amounts of finished metal/Motorcycles! They get HUGE VENDOR breaks due to all the VOLUME they consume per year, these discounts are back loaded for the manufacturer. They base cost of unit on estimate of volume use not actual that comes a year or quarter.
Now the Honda Management/design people have gotten the call to bring style/looks to the party. New Chopper class, new bikes coming down the pipe is all due to the SKYROCKET success of the Fury. The Fury has shown the custom chopper world a new fighter in the ring and they will have to adjust to a major coming in and stealing market share!

Big Dogs still look AWESOME! But I love my FURY and would keep it hands down even if I had a BIG DOG!

If I could afford a 3rd bike I'd buy a Mastiff

If I had the money, I'd buy the wolf. I think it's the only one that has a 121ci engine. Plus I think it looks sweet.

 

[gary.williams20]

Coyote is slick too

 

[gary.williams20]

how do you post the big picture in the test area??

Yea, would have to agree with you on that one, that bike too has some sexy lines to it... But, don't know... Don't think I'd buy it though, think the Fury has become an appendage to my hip now, I truly love my bike ...

Girl is jealous now, so it's going to be a war... Lol, she actually noticed all the mods on my bike yesterday when I was working on the LED's, she said damn, you spend enough time and money on that bike don't you.. She said okay, you know that little tiny dress that you like, for every add-on that you add from now on, I can have half the amount you spend on your bike so I can go buy more dresses... I was thinking sure, got most of the expensive mods out of the way anyways... and she already has that dress... She'll find another one though

Here's a bigger pick Gary:

I don't know what you meant by "test area". How do you post tumbnails? I just click on the insert image button which is right under the "undue arrow" and copy the address of the pic.

 

[Temporal-Mechanic]

Its got Fury pipers as well.

I'd much rather have the cash to spend on what I want rather than pissing it away endless repairs. Don't get me wrong these bikes look cool. If they spent have the time on making them reliable I doubt we'd be seeing any Jap bikes. There's a lot of talent out there... so why hasn't some one designed a reliable Harley ? No offense guys.

 

[gary.williams20]

I meant text area, can't figure out how you guys post them big ass pictures

See pic below: use right click on the pic that you find on the internet and copy location, then use pics below

Ya know... I think it's a corporate thing there bro, they just don't want to give up on the old styling and history of the bikes or something... Either that or the owner truly is a blind asshat...

When I said I'd buy one if I had the money, I meant the money to throw away. I'd have to be rich to afford one of those bikes in the first place, and if I was rich, then it wouldn't matter whether or not they were reliable.

Just I like I said up above. The "insert image button". I still don't know how to post thumbnail pics, but there's a lot I don't know how to do on here.

Got a pic for that too... you just have to make sure that you follow the instructions once you press the button on the picture "size", that is the biggest factor to the thumbnail pics, then once it's about the right size, you have to try and try and try and try again sometimes to upload the pic (this forums has a FEW bugs in it), til it uploads... here is the press me button pic:
