New to your channel, but I've watched a few of your vids now. I like your reasoning, the way you size up the situation, and the decisions you've made. Good stuff!
@@neftalidveliz951 Which means the frame has to be cut ( chopper) and raked or extended forward like you said, but if the front wasn't cut it's not a chopper. Just a factory frame. Also the type of handlebars has nothing to do with it being a chopper. You can build a chopper and put drag bars on it, it's still a chopper.
Holy poop I was going to go look at this specific bike this weekend, I guess I shouldn't be surprised as we live in the same city, but hey, thanks for saving me a ride in the heat, ya get a like and a subscription for your trouble.
@@JonsMotoGarage I did not. Had a friend come with me and both of us were just not feeling it. Had to go with the gut and pass on it. Have a few more bikes to look at this week though.
I drove 60 miles with a trailer, the bike didn’t start, it had been dropped. The conversation I had was like new well maintained. That was really frustrating!
$4000 is a good buy. For the right bike in the right condition. I've regretted buying a lot more motorcycles than I have regretted not buying. I think you made the right call. If it just doesn't feel right for some reason walk. That's my rule of thumb. Honesty I have shown up to look at motorcycles before that damage wasn't disclosed (even when asked before coming) or damage was grossly misrepresented and I take one look thank the person for their time and leave.
11k on the clock and all the damage? Maybe offer $3,000 and see where it goes? Pristine, low mileage Fury’s listed for as much as $8k here in Florida, in a market saturated with bikes
He stole the first bike doubtful he steels another one. $4k is fair in the condition it is in. There going for $5600 to 8k used in various conditions in my area. $1600 minimum savings you could customize the bike and fix the little scratches and dings easily with that savings.
Yeah, apparently everyone's idea of "excellent condition" is a bit different. Lol. There's definitely some subjectivity, but come on man! Just admit you laid the bike down! Hahahah..
Hmmmm...I'm like a dealership. Lol. I low ball the value on everything, but I'll try my best. Hahahaha. I always start by checking kbb (based on your zip code). If you can get it for close to trade in, that's usually a really good deal. Also, when I buy a bike that I'm keeping for personal use, I don't mind paying a bit on the high side as long as the value is there (has all the extra goodies you're looking for, recent maintenance, doesn't need any immediate money dumped into it). In the long run, an extra $500 won't make a big difference if you're getting a lot of use out of the bike. Also, if you're gonna put a lot of miles on it then of course try to get one with as low mileage as possible. I'm probably preaching to the choir here. Lol. Anyway, as far as value/price, anywhere from $6k - $7500 seems like it'd be in the range. Tack on a bit extra if you're going through a dealer of course. I've seen a few outliers in my area for as low as $5500 w/between 5k-10k miles. Not sure if those had abs though. And of course if you go back to the older models (2010 - 2012), you can sometimes get lucky and fetch em up for $4500 - $5500 range. The best bike to get is from the original owner who put like 1k miles on it and then basically decided it's not for them. Thanks for watching and commenting! Happy hunting and ride safe!
@@JonsMotoGarage hey thanks for such a detailed and a quick reply, I'm upgrading from my suzuki gsx250, though i love the looks of Stryker but I'm leaning more towards a Fury cuz the Stryker doesn't come with abs. I'm a newbie and had a couple of slips and a low speed fall on my suzuki cuz I locked the tires in panic breaking. Also I don't think there is any other cruiser in this price range which comes with an abs. I think fury fits the bill.
Yeah, abs is definitely a good safety feature. If you're looking for a true to style chopper, it's hard to beat the fury. Thanks for reaching out and keep me posted if you get the bike!
Hahaha...I run into this so often I must be jaded because now a days, it's usually a simple "I'm gonna pass," and I roll out. I usually encourage them to update the ad to reflect actual condition so they're not wasting other people's time as well. Thanks for watching, bro!
Super light, compared to Harley’s factory chopper, the Rocker C. Water cooled is a plus. Shaft drive is a little tricky at first as the rotation of the shaft will pull you that direction a little. No big deal once you get used to it. I think the Fury is a home run from Honda and this from a Harley guy 👍
Good question. I've seen a few with the mini windscreens. Doesn't look too bad, but not sure how it functions. This one had a batwing fairing before the guy laid it down. He told me that after I showed up to look at it. Lol.
Hey man new to your channel very cool. Quick question which bike would you recommend Honda fury or Yamaha Stryker? They both are 1300cc and have that chopper look
Hey, thanks for watching! I think between the two it comes down to personal preference. Of course you can look into shaft vs belt drive, air cooled vs liquid, etc. But the reality is for your avg rider, none of that will make a big difference in the big scheme of things. Both should be pretty solid choices. I'd be happy riding either. Sometimes having options makes the decision a lot harder. Lol. Let me know what you ultimately decide on! Ride safe!
@@JonsMotoGarage Hey man thx for the feed back. I think I am going to go with the stryker special if I'll want to take it on longer trips. Thanks again
@3:30 them scuffs tells me YES its been down!!! and my guess, some kinda slow speed fall over, maybe a grab of front brake in some gravel , some one was learning how to ride on tht bike lol ... u know Im a Honda fan and the furys are decent chopper style bikes [not for me i grew out them yrs ago] anyway i wouldve bought it for a flip at oh say $3k do some touch up to it, buy some after market blinkers etc etc detail it put a price of $4.2 - $4.5 let someone barter me down $3.7 -+

If that cat isn't honest from the very beginning then I wouldn't buy the bike. If he wasn't honest about it being dumped or knocked over then who knows what else he's not being honest about.
Yeah, I asked explicitly if it had been down or dropped. His response was "it just has a small scuff on the rear turn signal". It didn't show well in the video, but half the signal was shaved off. Lol. Like you said, just not the right deal for me. Thanks for watching!
I love my 2014 Fury the only thing I really want to change about it besides maybe some just cool cosmetic stuff would be putting some ape hangers on it
I hear ya. I understand entirely a used bike is not going to be in mint condition. However, I had asked from the get go if it had been down/dropped and what the extent of the damage was. The response was misleading. Had he been transparent about the condition, I'd of saved myself the drive. But I understand that's the name of the game. Thanks for watching! Ride safe!
@@blackrockbrewing5141 A stage 1 kit is 3 add on parts. 1. a fuel processor which allows you to adjust fuel air mixture. 2. a larger air intake system for more air into the fuel mixture. 3. A free flow exhaust system, so the exhaust flows out quicker. Most factory bikes run very lean fuel mixtures and very restrictive exhaust to pass emission testing, basically they cork up the motor and that weakens the motors power output. A stage 1 kit uncorks the motor and makes a huge difference in power and torque.
New to your channel, but I've watched a few of your vids now. I like your reasoning, the way you size up the situation, and the decisions you've made. Good stuff!
That's one of the factory choppers I've always liked.
Yeah, it's the only one I know of that really captures the classic chopper look - minimalist, clean lines, nothing over the top.
No such thing as a factory chopper.
Look up the definition.
@@714thegooch chopper: "a motorcycle with high handlebars and front wheel forks extended forward."

I got the same scuffs on my Fury - you saw the video of my lay down - slow speed dump just no tank damage on mine. Congrats on the 1000 mark!!
Yeah, I don't mind the minor stuff so much. I buy lots of bikes that have been tipped. It's more the principle of the matter. Thanks for the support!

What do you think? Good or Bad purchase for the 2010 Honda Fury Chopper?

just recently purchased a Fury that has been built out pretty good and paid 9 for it so $4000 is a good deal.

Fuel injected, v twin..
Yeah, it is a great bike if you're looking for the chopper look. And super smooth! I'm a fan.
Just found you. I like your content keep going. I subscribed.
Right on! I appreciate all the support! Thanks, brotha!
I think a pass was a good call on your part
Yeah, too many questionable things on this one.
How this “choppa” is handling? Level of comfort to ride for long distances? Vibration etc..?

What year did they make the white Fury bike?
Another great video, I'm looking for a 2015 Fury ABS. What should be a fair price for that in a good condition? Will appreciate the valuable opinion

Is the fury a good starter bike? Ive ridden dirtbikes for awhile so i know the basics. I'm 6'1 270ish pounds. Would this be a good fit for me?

John 4k for that fury, is it cheaper in Arizona, i got 2011 fury i paid 5300 8600 miles on it, what do you think
Sounds like you got a solid deal. The market seems to have gone up even since doing this vid a few years back.

Duse should have lowered the price a bit. Nice bikes, but I'm not into the skinny long tanks.
