I have a hip injury and my new Softail Deluxe is making it act up even more.

Pictures are deceiving - the Fury certainly looks somewhat narrower than most Harleys - can anyone please confirm?

I like the Fury's styling - they are hitting showrooms in December over here in Australia.

Thanks

Per the Manual overall width is 897mm or 35.3"

Dude...Have you considered going to the dealer & sitting on one? No ones description will tell you if your hip will be ok or not. Just a thought....

Have you considered a narrower seat or gas tank on your FXSTD?

What's up with that, slow boat?

 

[casseldale]

Yes, probably a slow boat.

I found out yesterday Australia will have ABS standard so I guess that Honda Australia waited in order to get ABS production.

Thanks for everyone's replies!

Latest Honda Aus website update is that ABS is standard and colours are black or blue.

How wide is the Fury?

Well compaired to your Harley, I would say it's much more narrow. I owned a Suzuki m90 prior to buying the Fury. I'm sure the M90 I had was very close in size to your Harley, it was a big overweight beast, great on the highway, but not easy to manuver on the side streets. The Honda Fury is much better on the side streets, it's lighter, narrower and the seatheight is lower. I think you will find the Honda Fury will be a little better on your hip in my honest opinion.
