ok so i was at one of my local honda dealers today and they had like 5 kick * choppers out in front of the place. Not just some harley looking bikes, these things looked like something straight out of american chopper.
im not much for the chopper style. but let me tell you, this bike stopped me dead in my tracks. On my way out one of the honda guys fired one up and i thought i was going to sh*t myself. The sound, the style, the overall quality of the bike. It was all just so impressive.

1996--------Honda Elite S-
1991--------Tomos Targa-
And a Bunch of other bikes.
I fear this will be too little too late for the custom chopper/bobber crowd. The scene is well established (tired?) and with the economy taking a downward turn these may be a hard sell.
I got some friends that been waiting for the Fury. I seen it last year and thought if I was to ever go the cruiser route, I'd get one. Just because it wouldn't leave oil puddles in the garage like my friends panhead.
I really like how they just give you a blank canvas to mod away. I was telling the wife, I think I'd still be banging turns on a race track somewhere on the Ducati even after I retire
I don't really like the looks of it. I do like the color matched frame. I just got done customizing my Kawasaki Vulcan over winter. I would rather be different than buy a stock bike. Thats just me.
