I'm gonna have to say I don't care for it ... looks like they're trying to save money on building it by making a hole in the middle of it.

Well don't I feel like a real dumbass  ... I though this was an Interstate ... room for luggage & pull 2 and a trailer when you need it ... as you know ... what a joke for 2010  ... better take care of mt '99.  |

You're right, the storage is minimal. But it is very secure. I watched two Honda guys in red shirts pour over the saddlebags last night trying to figure out how to open them. If they can't open them... Well, they weren't using a box cutter. But if you think these saddlebags are small, you should have seen the ones Yamaha had hung on a highly accessorized Raider. My shaving kit is bigger.  |

Can't say that I am impressed with the pictures or the stats on the Honda web site, but what struck me funny on the "Innovations" page - besides listing the windshield as an innovation - was the single pin crank shaft innovation for that "V-twin feel"... ???
The biggest disappointment is the name. I mean wow...what were they thinking? ???
Seems that Honda has a lot of confidence with the Fury line, but my local dealer - Cowboy Honda in Kyle - can't give them away. Maybe they are selling better else where.

Look at the title - this isn't an Interstate, it's a VT1300 Insterstate. Now I feel better about my real Interstate. |

the raider is not supposed to have saddle bags.  but its a ton o fun to ride. the fury looks like a big dog with a vtx motor. my .02 honda really has been messing up. they only offer a crusier with real hard bags or have another option besides the vtwin. i'd like to see them take the goldwing and strip the tupperware put on some tins with curves. i'm spoiled after riding a v4 and a f6 |
