It's a cool bike for what it is, but take that on the roads that I normally ride, & more than my wrists will be hurting .

Mine did too, until I installed heli-bars....still "looks" stock, but allows me to get weight off my wrists.....made my bike fun again.

Mine used to hurt as well. I started to grip the tanks with my thighs and used my abs to keep the weight off my wrists.

that thing will eat a HD V Rod for breakfast,lunch, and dinner lol

i like the Honda Fury too if you want a cool look but don't need a powerhouse

in motocross we train not to grip the bars tight to prevent arm pump. you use a loose grip and grip the bike with your legs. you get used to it after awhile

I had right wrist issues on my racebike.. I switched to VERY angled clipons and 1/4 turn throttle. Completely eliviated the issue. I have a form of bursitice in my throttle wrist so I get a big KNOT on the top of my wrist after a track day..

Had the 1/4 turn installed on my dirtbike.. Taking it off before i ever even consider slinging a leg over it.. 1/4 turn throttle on an off-road bike equals a chain of events thats not much fun.. usually a bump, followed by a wheelie followed by me on foot chasing my bike down

I'd still take a Harley.
