There are a couple of stories about guys who have been rear-ended on a Vision while stopped.  In a way, I can see how it could happen.  We have become so tuned in to the third brake light on every car and truck.  Almost every big touring bike that has been on the road for any length of time seems to have them added on. 

I rode with VisionTex around Arkansas for a couple of days and the times I was behind him felt very different.  The brake lights on the Vision are the bottom two bulbs at the bottom of the "V" and I was never looking that low.  I was mesmerized by the trunk and and overall lines of the bike and when he would hit the brakes it would take me a second to react.  I instinctively expected a third bake light on the trunk to tell me when he was stopping.  If you ever get the chance, follow a Vision Tour around for awhile and you'll see what I mean. 

Putting a third taillight on any other touring bike has been made simple by both the manufacturers and the aftermarket.  Finding the same set-up for the Vision is much more challenging.  It is not just plug and play.  There are very few options available that still allow you to keep the clean lines of the bike without rigging something that looks out of place.  I want a third taillight on the trunk in the worst way but don't feel comfortable pulling the trunk, tapping into the wiring and all the other stuff it would entail, not to mention making it look factory.  If anyone knows of a good fix in the works, let us know.
