Monday 4 May 2009. My (Red) Fury is here (Ottawa Canada)! Picking it up at 4 pm today, yahoo. Will let ya know how I like it after a few rides. I am a wee bit nervous as I have not ridden a bike in 6 years, so I hope my skills come back quickly.
I ordered Silver and they kept jerking me around on delivery. Found another dealer willing to give me a good enough deal on the red in stock to recoup my deposit. Glad I went with the red. That is a VERY sharp color. Didn't care for it at the International Motorcycle Show, looked too purple, but maybe that was the lighting. This bike rocks! I also have an 03 Roadstar and compared to the Fury, that thing is a tank! I can ride the Fury all day in all conditions no problem. I picked mine up last Thursday. 405 miles later, I love this bike!Ok guys I need your honest input here.My dealer told me today that the blue Fury I was suppose to get the 24th of May will not be here until possibly June 20th,due to backorder.I can get the dark red this month. I have not seen the red,but it is one of my favorite colors along with the blue.How does the red look in person?
If you look on the VTXOA web site...a couple people there make a clutch tension reducer that I have installed on my VTX. Should fit the Fury. Great product...really happy I put one on.Clutch lever requires a strong hand it just might be a hassle in stop and go traffic.
FYI, the clutch tension reducer for the VTX1300 was installed and tested on the Fury and it works just the same. If you go over to vtxoa.com, be aware that they call it a "Clutch Pull Relief" or CPR, for short (in case you use the search feature there).If you look on the VTXOA web site...a couple people there make a clutch tension reducer that I have installed on my VTX.
