I guess I am one of those newbies that people seem to love to hate. I couldn't resist this bike. Never rode before but have been looking for a bike for the last 2 years. Saw this bike, sent the dealer the cash and got to pick it up today. Dont get my license through a course for two weeks time. Dying with anticipation.

Not Hatin on ya at all, congrats on the new bike.

I think I am in good company here. I have seen other people get flamed on other forums for admitting half as much. Thanks for the support.

Congrats on the new bike ride safe

I live on a private road so yeah I have given it a spin. Besides the issues I think all new riders would have getting used to the controls, it seems like a very well balanced forgiving bike. Wide turn radius takes some getting used to but I am very confident I will be very comfortable with this bike. I'm not a small guy at 6' 230lbs so the weight isn't an issue.
Keep in mind these are very novice observations.

If the ride is a little to hard on you, you might want to tighten up the preload on the rear shock.

Congrats man. You will love it. And yes it is a very well balanced bike for the rake and tall neck. What color did you get?

Got the Matte Silver. Just finished removing the Honda / Fury decal on the rear fender, reflectors on the rear fender and forks. Also removed the stickers on the swing arm an the Honda logos. Looks very clean and sexy. Tying to get the old lady to let me park it by the bed tonight....not gonna happen.

Congrats on the new ride. One question, Why are you asking

 

[cromwell]

congrats man...i am in the same boat well kinda i have ridden dirtbikes and the occasional Friends honda rebel...getting learners permit to ride with buddies tomorrow.....just got the call that my bike will be in on friday so i should be picking it up then....

 

[2lawless4u]

I think you have a point. Always easier to ask for forgivness than permission.

Welcome, and have some fun. I had not ridden a street bike since 1990, but it all came back very quickly. Most of all be safe!
