Sand Rock, AL United States | Join me in welcoming Ruby86 to the family. She has everything , EVERYTHING except cams (quarter turn throttle ring, top plate/filter, ATW, ceramic coated exhaust ) Runs like a raped ape! Pulls so hard, I can't imagine it running any harder with cams , though I'm sure it would. There's nothing to do to this bike but ride it and look at it.

Prairie City, IA United States | You old sandbagger! Here we are feeling bad for you because you had a major engine problem and you sneak off and buy another Vision.
Congrats on a beautiful new bike.
Looks like it needs a flip windshield though.  |

hahaha, I needed two Visions in case one needs service. Besides, you can still feel bad for me . Before I even got home from Florida with the bike, my 16 yr old son wrecked his truck (he's fine) so now my auto ins on him will be unbearable, it was already bad. |

Been there done that. I had 3 kids driving at the same time. Both sons totaled a car in the 1st year of driving. The daughter managed to keep a clean record. Lets just say my insurance payment was more than my house and car payments combined per year. This to shall pass. |

Wow! That would be a horrendous payment. After more thought, I may just replace the damaged wheel and tire and let him drive it banged up and not turn it in on ins.. It wasn't bad, will need alignment and maybe no undercarriage damage. Will know more today. |

West Salem, WI United States | I think that is my favorite Vision, just love the color transition, pin striping and the lettering etc.
Do I see a strip of LED lights running up the back on each side of the tail lights? I never thought of doing that, but on my black bike you would probably not even notice them until they lit up. |

Danbury, Connecticut | JimTom, What is sticking out of the front of the seat? Is that a storage bag? It appears to be an aftermarket seat with the stitching-wondering if its part of the seat or just slipped under. |

Sand Rock, AL United States | he put a sunglasses case on the panel in front of the seat with velcro tape. I haven't removed it. The seat is an Arlen Ness , it's lower and non heated. I have the stock anniversary basket weave seat on it now that is heated. I did buy the extra custom seat shown in the pics. |
