New Victory Vision was at Holiday Park this morning. Victory in Ft. Lauderdale brought one up so everyone could, see, hear and sit on one.
This is one awesome machine. 6 Speed 106 Cubic Inches and so hot to look at. :eek:
Sitting on it felt like you were on an easy chair..this is one big a_s bike but balanced like a dime on it's edge . They were signing up people for test rides when the demos get here. They will be on sale in Oct?. Price 21K for the full touring model.

I signed up?they will let you take a passenger as well on the demo.

I think it's simply the Biggest Pile of Crap ever made. :rolleyes:

I don't think Victory will even be able to give them away.

To each his own. :)

It doesn't look too bad without the trunk. It may not be my cup of tea, but I applaud Victory for thinking outside the box. We have more then enough Harleys and Harley clones. Not that they look bad but geez don't they get tired of seeing a million other bikes just like theirs.
It's no more ugly then the GL1800. The GL1800 would benefit greatly by selling a no trunk version like Victory is doing. If Honda were to use better looking bags and have a no trunk (and passenger throne) version for solo riders I might get interested. Yes, I do use a Givi trunk on a couple of long trips every year, but it then comes off and I ride without it 95% of the time. If the GL1800 had a no trunk model I could then add a Givi for those few times it would be needed.

That thing is hideous - but that's just my subjective opinion. Of all the stuff I've read about it though, it sounds like it all works pretty well. I hope enough people like them for it to be a success. The competition will make everything else that much better.

I owned a '99 vic and really liked it. The biggest problem with Polaris is developing a good dealer system. Most dealers added the bike as an "add on" and then bailed or were let go. I think the Vision will be a great success. I wouldn't be a bit surprized if Harley didin't do a little copying for there new Rocker. The whole line is just a little to "nessed" up for me but I wish them well. There is always room for good products.

I test rode a Victory Vegas. I really liked it. It was a nice bike, but it was $10,000 dollars nice. Not $16,000 nice.

I can't imagine what they are pricing that Vision at.
