2. Thank you

Initially when Honda debuted the bike they said they were only making 500 of them with color. It turns out they made a 1000 of them. Either way I loved the color and the look of the bike.

Funny story, I had never risen a motorcycle before. I went up to the Honda dealer with a buddy that had a friend workin there. There was a cobalt blue fury on the show room floor and I immediately fell in love with it until I saw this color. I said I must buy it now. My buddy talked me out of it, telling me that this is a pretty big bike for a beginner. He told me to buy a shadow, which I could get for $2000. Better to drop that than the Fury.

I bought the shadow and my buddy had to drive it home for me. I was so in love with this bike that I also paid for it as well but left it at the dealers. So for two months I rode the shadow everyday. Took my motorcycle safety course, then the advanced course. After two months I went in and sold the shadow back for what I bought it for, and rode home on my Fury.

I had it all stock for about a month until I pulled up next to a guy on a Vespa scooter, well his bike was louder than mine. I obviously drove away in shame. that night I ordered the fugging pipes, and bullet air intake. Got them a week later and put them on the bike. They are a nice sounding exhaust, not to loud, but gives it a sound that matches the bike. But if you are not careful they burn a hole into your pants. I've ridden it enough now to were that it only bothers me at a red light on a hot day.

Been riding almost daily since 2010 until I had to get 3 vertebrae fused. Now I'm lucky to ride once a month because the pain can get pretty bad.

I still have hopes of riding my bike up to Alaska one day. I just need to get my back a little stronger and less painfull than it is now.
