| No one will know until Victory releases the info later in the year...It is senseless to "speculate" and waste time on what may be....JMHO |

Danbury, Connecticut | I heard the Visions are won't be in the picture for 2014. Just kidding. I see that posted here every year about this time, usually from someone who believes it(I don't). We'll see for sure next month. |

| A friend and I stopped in Spirit Lake 3 years ago returning from Colorado, about this time in July. They weren't allowing any tours because they were getting ready for the model year change. The only thing I recall them changing were the colors on th X-bikes. |

Georgia, west of Atlanta | At least no over priced anniversary editions. That'll come back up in 2018........ One thing Victory learned well from Harley. Different paint some decals and a extra emblem or two for another $5000.00. But, whatever sells. It is a free market. |

So. Indiana | Yeah, I think the sticker for the 15th anniversary edition is only 1500 or so more than the Ness, isn't it? 29k or there abouts. |

Wow, I didn't know they were that much. Never even looked at a anniversery eddition. Not for me. I regard motorcycles as tools for having fun and traveling. Not as collector pieces. The Vision is a Ultra ( ooops ) comfortable high speed touring bike........ I put 7150 miles on my '08 last year during one trip and rode it all day for many days at 85- 90mph out west, it can't be beat in those conditions.

Georgia, west of Atlanta | I do wish they would make a Vision with the same color blue as the Cross country. Solid no two tone.......Maybe with black trim. |

So. Indiana | I like the two tones, but would love to see more vivid colors on the Vision. I really liked the anniversary Visions... I'd like to see that red on a non anniversary edition. I also use bikes as tools. I commute and often put about 15k a year on my bike. Still, I don't mind them looking snazzy. I think a good royal blue, orange or green could look pretty slick. I'd like to see that green from the Cross Country on a vision.. minus the flames. |

| They finally dropped the price on the jackpot to where it will hopefully sell well. Good job by Victory on the redesign of the judge. I hear the judge is a fantastic handling bike. Looks like I'll keep riding the 08 Vision and 13 CC. |

Saratoga NY area | Boring and disappointed. Call me a complainer or whiner but I want top of the line technology, new looks, great radios, Ipod, usb port connection, durable paint and more for my money. 18K + does not grow on trees. Anyone who buys a new vic is crazy, just buy last years models or a good used one and save your cash. Maybe Victory just wanted to empty their spare parts and decal bins? |

Pittsburgh, PA | what's wrong with the paint? I've had two victories now for years I never had an issue with the paint.... I agree on the radios. But if they constantly change a model that also means availability of accessories will not be there.. I love the look of my 2 visions... they don't look like anything else on the road today |

Manchester, CT | The key challenge a lack of a clear coat. Just a slight brush against a black bike will show. I keep my bike detailed at all times...victory finishing products but without a clear coat there will always be a challenge. |

| That's the High-Ball you're looking at. The Hard Ball was based on the Cross bikes but with ape hangers, and it is gone. |

| I rode a hardball and it was very comfortable. I didn't realize apes could be that comfortable of a position. I was actually looking getting one, but the price was too high for what you got compared to a cross country. I wonder if Victory would have dropped the price on the Hardball like they did on the Jackpot, if it would have sold. There was a fairing with speakers you could add. I hope Victory doesn't get in the mode of producing models for 2-3 years and then giving up. Seems like it would be hard to increase market share and product lines if you keep pulling the plug on models. |
