Thought this was great. I got a mailer from HD yesterday . Offering an HD engraved Ipod if you test ride a new 09 touring bike. This is sweet...I'm going to hook it right up to my Vision when I get it

Yeah - Watch out for the HD IPod Virus. It infects your Vision and causes parts to fall off randomly

Hey, Luzz, do you have to have the email for the deal, or is it a general thing at all dealers?

How did you get a test ride out of an HD dealer? Each dealer I went to wanted a signed buyers order before the ride. I guess I didn't look the part....whatever that is. :-)

I rode my Triumph on to the lot and told the salesman I was looking for a touring bike. They photo copied my Driver's liscense and gave me the keys to a Road King. Very nice ride but the leg room was not there

It's all in the dealer. In my town, the HD dealer is the only one that will let you test ride and the metric dealers look at you like you're crazy for asking.

Not fair, Mark. I got my mailing and all I get is an HD road trip atlas.
Very well done mailing. Inside are 2 cards. 1 is for the atlas from a demo ride and the other is for gas if you buy.

An H/D closing their doors? Maybe you will get lucky and a Victory shop might move in.

I thought EVERYTHING in Iowa was at least 91, 136, or 186 miles away.

If nothing else, you DO have the Spirit Lake factory!

Free iPod Yes, but it's a 4th generation nano and will not charge with the iPod Cable. Good news is, the batteries last a long time!

i took out a ultra classic on a test ride before my vision purchase. considering that HD wanted more $$ for it was crazy to me. Both the wife and I took a goldwing, a Ultra Classic< and a Vision, all 08 models. We both picked the Vic easy. But then again, I'm not one to try to fit in and never thought a car or a bike would anything for my image. I simply pick the best most usable comfortable bikes and cars I can find, made it real easy

The HD dealership is two blocks from my house. Would it be really in bad taste to ride up on my new Vic and ask to test drive a Road Pile,, oops I mean a Road Hog then get my Ipod upon and as I walk out the door just say "well, Im really not ready to downgrade from what I have,, but thanks"

So if you hooked up the HPod to the Vision, how long would the list be of things that start happening to you and your Vison?

Already posted...

Vibrating mirrors
Oil leaking
Parts falling off

New ones...

You start standing around looking at the Vision instead of riding it.
You have a nice long ride to Sturgis ahead of you so you start shopping for the right trailer your Vision can fit into.
When you plug in the HPod you get 8gigs of the same song over and over!
