If that's the case with that bike, that could be a VERY good thing.

That was a test of the Vision? I thought it was a press release there was so little information in the article.

It was a 'first ride' article. Every magazine and web site does them. Everybody cries when MO is last with something and now I guess they cry cause they were first.

..by now that no matter WHAT you do or say and how hard you try to be thorough and careful somebody on the internet is going to flame you.

Maybe a lot of people are so smart they should start their own websites. I'd love to see those.

Better yet, trying putting together a website for a client.

That'll grind your bones down right quick.

Been there, done that. Talk about people that can't figure out what they want!

Wow. It's now July 4th and still no movement on the Victory topic. I've been a MO subscriber for the last four years. If this is how the "NEW" MO operates, I'm glad I let my subscription lapse.

Is this site now run by advertising dollars rather than motorcycle riders?
Being rude, pushy and making threats doesn't usually do much other than irritate, annoy and put people off.

You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.

Lightbulb Victory

I've owned 14 bikes since 1971; have logged over 250,000 miles total; can't say I've ever owned a bike I didn't like. Last bike was my 96 Buell (sold this year with 30k + miles) Currently ride an 06 Victory 8 Ball, 8,000 miles, zero complaints, two excellent dealers within 80 miles(by the way, both are selling everything they can get) have logged a couple of 500 mile days, ran a 12.6 @ 104 at MIR(2-1 pipe and slight intake mods) and averaging around 50 mpg.
Have ya noticed how much the "new" HD Rocker, and the "new" Yamaha Raider look a lot like the Vic's? Granted, Victory didn't invent the custom cruiser market, but they sure raised the bar a notch.
