| Greetings from Manitoba Canada! Just traded in my Hd Roadglide for a 13 Victory Vision and I am so happy with my choice. My wife and I have talked about the vision since we met the 1 st one in 08 on the road. We were invited to our local dealers demo ride to try out the vision and within the first 15 min of the test ride we were sold! |

Posts: 691 Manchester, CT | Welcome! The Vision is a dream to ride and last week I finally took my wife out. The Vision handled flawlessly. 2 up riding..I've found that if I let my wife on first and then I get it on is the best way for me. I'm only 5'6 and my wife 5'2. |

| Loved my '09 CVO Road Glide, but I am in love with my '13 Vision! Best V-Twin touring back by far.

| Street Eagle, If you want a little more secure feeling at lower speeds and at a stop, you might consider changing your stock seat for the 8-ball seat..It is 1"lower and really made a huge difference for me as I am somewhat vertically challenged also...Just a thought... |

Posts: 691 Manchester, CT | Thanks opas ride! Is the 8 ball heat seated and does it have the same shape/support of the Vision's seat? |

Posts: 25 Wiscasset, ME | Bobsled welcome to the Victory Vision family! You will love your new Vision more and more as you ride it. It is an awesome motorcycle.
Street Eagle the 8 ball version of the Vision has a 1 inch lower suspension and a 1 inch lower seat height. Like jimtom said, because the seat height is 1 inch lower,( less padding and no heated seat) the built in back support is 1 inch higher than the stock heated seat. Hope this answers your question? Take care and ride safe! Denny |

Posts: 10 Boston | same here I just picked up my 8 Ball a week and a half ago and I love it. Have only put 1000 miles on it so far but have a 5 day trip through northern New England planned for next week. What a huge difference from my T.C.
Enjoy!

Curious Jim if you kept your TC? I love my 04 TC but I haven't put maybe 1000+ miles on it since she started sharing the two bike garage with my VV. hehehe. And congrats on that 8ball! |
