I own a 2011 Vision and had a chance to test ride a 2013 Cross Country Tour this last weekend at Bair's Victory in North Canton Ohio. I have the on the fly electrically adjustable windscreen and that was the very first thing I felt was lacking on the Cross Bike. The bike I rode had a huge windscreen that required me to look though it rather than my normal preference of looking over it. Simply put, i could never own a motorcycle with a windscreen that I had to look through rather than over. The bike handled well as far as acceleration and cornering, and the radio reception seemed very good. No mute button on the handlebars. I didn't like the seat as much as what I have on my Vision. Wind protection was very good but once again i really disliked the huge windscreen. I felt slightly more confined in comparison to my Vision's more stretched out cockpit. All in all, I had a good time on the test ride and if it wasn't for the Vision, I could definitely see the attraction of the Cross Country Tour. |
