Posts: 11 Eldersburg, MD United States | - I know that the Vision has lost some popularity, but this is the most excited I have been about a new bike (to me) since I was a kid and my father brought home a CB 125.
I just bought a 2008 Victory Vision Tour with some nice upgrades like the GPS, XM,Taller windshield and PCV.
I have always liked this bike since they came out, but I simply could not afford to spend a great deal of money on a bike.
Finally put together some money and found a loved Vision.
Hoping to be able to go to Delmarva Bike Week (inspection, Registration ect.)

If you don't have reverse, consider it. There are times that I gave up pushing it backwards. Its expensive, but it is a life saver. |

| check the bolts on the inside of the back part of the front fender. There 6mm and are on the inside. They are known to be loose and fender will crack at mounting holes and fall off |

Posts: 11 Eldersburg, MD United States | Wow Jim Tom 141k is impressive on ANY bike.
I love riding and I commute on my bike occasionally, and I am planning on going to Sturgis next year, but I would likely have to keep my bike for 20 years to put that kind of miles on it!
I can see where this bike will make the miles go by a lot easier than my previous bikes, so my 6k per year average might go up a little

that average will inevitably go up my friend. ![](http://vision-riders.com/bb/images/emoticons/cool.gif) |
