To each his own I guess...
I sincerely hope you enjoy it, and can honestly say I have never seen a bike quite like that.

Uh, how much did they pay you to boot !

No seriously man, enjoy your new scoot! I sat on one of them at Sturgis last year and it fit me great. I liked the idea of the adjustable windshield, too!

Ride it like you stole it!

Well now, my guess is that you are hoping for a better response here than on the other forum. Sure hope they gave you some midol for all the complainin and whinin. Did you see the new issue of Roadbike??? They did a comparison that I think you will be interested in reading.

No as MOST responses on the other forum were civil and I expected the retaliation for a couple of my comments. It's all good!

A WHOLE lot less than I would have had to spend on a '09 Road Glide to get it to this level of comfort and performance!!!!

Let's see I would have had to add the following to the Road Glide, but comes stock on the Vision:
  1. Heated Seat
  2. Heated Grips
  3. Tour Pack
  4. CB intercom system
  5. Upgrade the Stereo system
  6. A TON of Chrome
  7. Power Windshield
  8. 106 CI motor
  9. iPod w/ handle bar controls
  10. HID lighting
  11. Brembo brakes
  12. 92 HP and 109 ft/lbs of torque (stock)
  13. 5 Year Warranty

These are just a few reasons for picking a Vision over a Road Glide

The Vison comes with more the an Ultra. Let us know how the 106" compares. I sure have nothing bad to say about anyone that gets one. I like that color. Seems some colors look better then others on it. I say that one at a dealer last year.

I assume the warranty must be great. Is it better than HD's?
Either way there is no way I could ride that futuristic freaking ship! It will look good on you though.
So why are you posting this here anyway?

He did post it in the Victory Forum.
Not sure if its all models, but I did see something on the website about 5 year warranty. Not sure if Harley would have the nerve to do that, then again the average miles these days
