Voted Fury.

I definetly don't HATE Honda. I just don't understand the road they've been going down for years now. A road clogged with a lot of boring bikes.

fury hands down, cheezy, the imitation Sportster 2nd. I'd ride a....dn01 before those.

no emotion about the vfr, the rune was at least, something or other

I don't hate honda either but some of their recent stuff just seems aimless and unsoichiroish.
they could redeem themselves by bringing honda authenticity and the CB1100 here but it doesn't seem to have mattered enough to them to do so.

Ok, I would have to say the bike I would dislike the most would be the DN-01, but I must admit I would love to own a Fury.

I like the DN-01 the least. It's just impossibly ugly and the auto trans. is just not necessary for a company that knows how to build a sweet shifting standard. Besides, the NT-700 is a much better looking bike with the same basic engine without sacrificing any function and with better performance:

The Shadow,,,,Its so Melba Toast.

I'd probably take the Rune next just cause you never see one around here.

The only one I'd consider owning would be the RS750...



This isn't a Shadow... it's the real thing.

What's wrong with Melba Toast? It's terrific with cream cheese and chives.

The limp-noodle Honda fake Sporster, on the other hand . . . I honestly would rather have a DN-01.
