Arthur - The need for speed and size.  January 18, 2010 11:56 PM
There is still a need for speed. Power still rules. And size does
matter. I have a vtx 1800. I love this bike, it's rock solid,
but dated. At 6'3 230 lbs I need and want a big bike. My 1800
meets my needs but it could be longer and beefier. Your new
1300 line looks impressive, very clean lines but small and skinny.
A 240 rear or larger would set the stage for something big.
Build it and people will come.

I don't understand why we can't get at least 15 0r 1600cc's. Why the single-crankpin? I'm a Honda man.... I'm on my 4th bike. I wonder what they are going to do with the 1800 line? What about a custom 1800 line. That would be the BOMB!
JackssonJohn - VTX...R.I.P.?  November 11, 2009 01:06 AM
I've owned only HONDA bikes since 1976. I've hoped for a fuel-injected VTX1300, with a bigger gas tank. I like long rides and the VTX floorboards' placement. For 2010, I see anorexic 1300s that'll have to be spoon fed too often.
Hevace - Call it the Fury II, like an old Plymouth  October 28, 2009 02:28 PM
I like the hunkered-down look better than the chopper-look Fury. Probably steers easier, too (although I haven't heard any complaints about the Fury in that regard).

I think Honda is going to call this one the Sabre.

I wonder how comfortable it is . . .

Looks really cool. And since it's a Honda, I bet it's reliable. Engine size is not an issue. This is a cruiser, I even like it better if it has a smaller engine (750-1000cc) for gas saving. If I want power in a bike I would stay with my R1. I mean who in their right minds likes to ride a cruiser that's hard to control over legal speed limit anyway? If this releases to N.America with a reasonable price I'll be one of the first in line.

I would like to know how much gas the tank holds. The tank on the original Fury is way to small. It needs to be at least 5 gallons. I also agree that the engine should be a bit bigger, in the 1500 to 1600 range.

Looks great, Sure I would like a bigger motor as well, but then you price yourself out of the "sweet spot" in the market. Nice thing is this doesn't look like a Harley clone, we have enough of those! I'm not looking for acceptance from some wanna be hardcore Harley d-bag at the local watering hole, I'll ride what ever the F*** I want. Give me something good looking that handles OK and is reliable at a decent price and I'm game. Great job Honda!
Nick - Needs more CCs  October 25, 2009 06:28 PM
Needs to be bored out to 1500cc. The VTX 1800 was awesome but too heavy; the 1300 more reasonably sized, but too slow.

I guess I like it okay as is. But I'd like it better with more oomph.
Ken - Honda VT1300CS  October 24, 2009 10:44 AM
This is exactly the kind of clean, metric design I've been waiting for - minus the freakishly-long fork of the Fury. A larger-displacement engine would be nice, but I can understand why Honda chose this single-crankpin engine.
