Posts: 1340 Gainesville Fl Home of the Gators | We just got in a new 2013 Vision, and it has the new Vic logo on it. Looks cool, and will be easier for them to print/embroider onto clothing, etc

Posts: 8144 New Bohemia, VA | I'm going to miss the winged world V logo. However, this loses the 1954 Poloris and I believe it marks the turning point for Victory. So put on your best leathers and ride... Thanks for giving us the "inside scoop" Kevin! |

Posts: 155 Stockton, California | I think you are all missing the point. Kevin said this logo is on a new 2013 VISION!!!! I guess that ends all the rumors and speculations in other threads. The Vision is still alive and well into 2013

I think it's funny how ever year someone claims to have some kind of inside info on the future of the vision for the next years model, LIKE discontinued ,then when the next year model comes then the following year more rumors of insider info.. I remember when people were claiming there would Not be a 2012 vision... Well..... Now we are talking about 2013.... Lol. |

That is about as exciting as Wonder Bread covered in Mayonnaise and a glass of 1% skim milk to go with it, plus they're too cheap to light it? ;the committee votes..........yes on no'
There is reflective tape and glow in the dark tape in huge sheets, next time you get on a stinky city bus..er....SOUTHWEST 737 look @ the escape path in the carpet, it's glow in the dark and works really well, and is very bright, and doesn't need constant maintenance to stay legal for the FAA.
I look @ that new badge and want to hold my ears from the loud sounds of CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP |

| Hi Kevin,
Did you happen to ride it and notice if they've got the new transmission gears in it like the Judge has? I've got a '13 on order and I'm hoping it will come with the new stuff. The shifting is way, way better than my '11.

that quote wasnt about saying there would NOT be a 2013 it was making fun of all the people with the so called INSIDE SCOOP info saying there would not be one.. |

Off Topic but interesting your having shifting issues with the '11, mine after the change to synthetic is like butter, smooth as glass and much easier. |

Ouch!
I like that they added "USA" to the logo.
But I still prefer the Victory script logo and think it would look good next to the Indian script logo. |

| So, you've seen the new logo already...take a look at how we make the badge. We're stoked about our announcements we are making in July, and will keep you posted.

Posts: 752 Broken Arrow, OK | Video is pretty neat. Know what's really neat? The rear end of a Buick GranSport, GS, stage1 in that video. Through the bumper exhaust. I purchased that exact same model car, in the same gold color, when I turned 16, back in 1976. It was 5 yrs old w/ 52,000 miles. I paid $2,200, lol.
At the 1:07 mark, gave me goosebumps!

When the CORE concept came out, I thought "Dang, how cool is that graphic!" Futuristic, cutting edge, absolute badness. I've always thought that the Vision deserved something like that. All my t-shirts with the block VICTORY letters have always been a huge disappointment for me. You could not come up with a more boring graphic for a great company name. The new logo is a huge step in the right direction. We all know that Polaris is the only reason Victory has survived this long. I've never had a problem with that association on the logo. But, now that Victory is here to stay, I'm really glad to see the new logo. It legitimizes the hard work of the entire corporate team, dealer network and passionate riders that have made Victory brand what it is today. It will never be confused with the Indian script and the two logos should never be close, even though they are both Polaris. I will wear the new Victory logo with great pride. Remember, everything released this year will be the only "first editions" without Polaris on it. I'll be first in line. Nice job guys. |

Posts: 155 Stockton, California | After watching the video it it very apparent what Victory is going for. When you see the logo on the back of the vest, "VICTORY" really stands out. Much more so then the old logo. How many times have you been asked "what kind of bike is that?" You say "a Victory" and they say "Oh is that a type of Harley?" A lot of people are not familiar enough with the Victory brand but the new badge REALLY sets the Victory name apart. |
