First Look: 2009 Honda Fury

YOU'RE LOOKING at the new Honda Fury, a chopper-style production bike due for an official unveiling at the New York International Motorcycle Show tomorrow Friday.

The Fury's quite a departure for Honda, courting the hi-dollar new-style chopper scene, which has gone from strength-to-strength over the last few years.

The Fury's powered by a 1312cc fuel-injected, liquid-cooled V-twin motor. A 200 section rear tyre and neatly hidden monoshock give the Fury a hard-tail look but without the back-breaking ride. At 1808.5mm, the Fury has the longest wheelbase of any production motorcycle.
