The bike is the first attempt of Honda to capture the custom chopper bike’s market. As it is still the beginning, the company is facing a tough competition. Looking at its history, chances are that Honda will be able to capture the custom chopper bikes’ market too. It seems that Honda never rests till it achieves what it wants. Their marketing strategy is not disclosed until the last moment and often is the best and compulsive.
The Honda fury is a single seat bike with a longer handle that is adjustable. The main aim behind the inception of the model is to offer affordable Hondas in the customizable market too. You can get the bare Fury as much customized as you want. It is too soon to dismiss the Fury as a way to capture the market of chopper bikes. Maybe not good for racing, but the Fury is the best for long distance cruising. You will never feel the tiredness.

2008 Honda CB1000R Street Bike– Can it match the best Super Nakeds?
Filed Under Cars, Honda | Leave a Comment
It has been forty years since the Japanese invaded the market, Honda comes up with the CB 1000R to counter some of the best sportsbikes from all over the world. It is still to be seen if the Honda CB1000R can really beat the best super nakeds from Britain and Italy. The surprising factor is that though the bike challenges the best bikes around the world, it is keeping the sales limited to the European continent only!
The attitude at Honda has always been to offer the riders with all the glamour they need. The 2008 Honda CB1000R is not back in the endeavor. The machine weighs only 478 lbs, just 40 lbs more than the favorite Blade 2008. The extra weight is due to the heavily braced single sided swingarm.
The bikes swoopy four-spoke rear wheel offers an aura that is hard to resist. The LCD clocks on the front are said to be the most expensive in the bikers; world. The bodywork and the aggressive ‘ready-to-attack’ stance inform you at the very first look that this is not a normal Honda naked bike. It has been designed to offer a sporty ride combined with the looks better than of the most nakeds. To sum up, the 2008 Honda CB1000R is not a match for the best super nakeds. It is much more than that.
