Maine | Stage 1 level 2 backordered again. Victory has moved the delivery date from Feb.8 to Feb.27. I lost track of how many dates have gone by. Do they think that there is anyone left in motorcycle land that believes them?  |

CALGARY ALBERTA | We have a great bike that is unique, well planned, designed, developed and built. If they missed the mark with the accessories being made on time, it is just a little discomfort compared to the thrill of riding.

Stockton, Ca. | This is not the first time I purchased a new model of bike and it is no different than any other experience for that matter. It can take a year for everything to begin flowing, especially once the aftermarket catches on. It is frustrating at times but we have something unique as it is. Make the most of it while you are waiting, Go for a ride, listen to the stereo you might miss it when the exhaust gets louder! |

So Cal | I really couldnt tell the diffrence in sound between stage I & II as far as sound. Dealer has a little display with the three exhausts recorded.
And the Vision has enough power for me right out of the box. I just figured that for just an extra $100 the level II would be the way to go. I do think a little exhaust rumble would compliment the Vision. I will probably end up with whats available when I go in for the 2500 service. Im not up to waiting again. The best thing about the Vision is limited accessories. Less cash outlay. |

New Bohemia, VA | Sorry on your wait for a wanted accessory. It is flustrating at the least. I'm trying to remind myself that these problems would be with a new model, but I agree with the others, I cannot stay off long enough to worry about what it doesn't have. I find that the stock pipes are perfect, though there are times I would like to hear a louder rumble, but not all the time, just yet. I'm still working with the dealer on the coughing through the airbox and the occasionally shut-off that some say is fixed with the stage 1 pipes. Hopefully, we'll have a resolution today, though it won't be a Victory resolution. I'm planning a nice letter to these folks to let them know they should be more proactive to the ridder and the dealer on the issues that are floating around, even if it is just a letter saying, "be patience and keep feeding us with information." |

Maine | For you that can ride yours, you are so lucky. We are having the most snow in ten years in Maine. I love this bike! Can't wait to put on my chrome on and ride this spring. Missing one peice thats in transit. I will wait out the multiple backorders for my Stag1 level2's because the rep said it will be worth the wait. In the mean time with all this snow, my only entertainment is complaining about the backorders and listening to the southern boys say how much fun their having! I also understand that the supplier is telling Victory they can deliver and then fail to meet their promise. I bet Victory is as frustrated as I am! |

| Well Performance East who does place ads here has been pretty honest with me about all things to this point. This is my second Victory I have bought from them and has done me right so far. I am sure if date changes he will call. He knows I am leaving for Daytona on Feb 28 and I want the stage 1 on by that date. Guess just hope Victory does their part. |
