Shadow 750 vs fury


  • I planning to buy a Honda bike, I used to have a VT600, but now I want a shadow 750 or Honda fury, which one is recommended I'm 53 years old and I want to do short trips like 600 miles or so, and of course days riding around the town.... thanks in advance.



  • @Mario R ill be honest, the fury kinda disappointed me, its great for taller guys, nice quiet shaft drive that requires little maintenance, prety comfrotable riding position, its got a big engine borrowed from the VTX1300, very easy to maintain, and the cockpit is very minimal. 
    i didnt like that i t has a really low capacity tank, the wheel base gives the bike the handling of a chopper, you will need 4 lanes to make a u-turn LOL!  the headlight absolutely sucks and its hideous. theres a limiter that stops you from going ovber 100mph... weak. Also, the rear tire, is a 200/50-18, not a lot of choices out there for that size. its a solid bike, with a bit of a limited range for its size due to the fuel tank capacity but it was fun to ride and it looks pretty neat. 
    it will do much bvetter on a long distance trip of 600 miles than a 750 would running at lower rpms at highway speeds means reduced vibration and a more enjoyable ride. i love the 750's and they are very capable, but not as easy on the body on long trips.
