I was wondering how many of you have several motorcycles and ride them all.

Well I don't have several but lucky enough to have two.

Living in Wisconsin I'm a three season rider. 

 I ride my solo cruiser to work and the Vision touring 2up

2007 Kingpin and 2009 Vision. Love them and ride both.
Ride a lot of 2 up plus some long rides on the Vision this year so she had a lot more miles put on this year.

Thanks. That's how I feel. The three bikes I have are all very different and I enjoy riding them all. Always take the Victory Vision when I'm going 2 up and on all day rides. The Stratoliner is fun for shorter rides. I take the Suzuki with me when I go camping and ride the backroads.

Well im in the lucky situation at the moment of having too many bikes to ride!!

there is some culling of the fleet to come with the arrival of the vision

Also in the garage is 2001 BMW R1100S, which the better half has attached herself to.
there is a 2007 Suzuki Bandit which is the "business" bike

and we also have a fleet of Sachs Madass 125s which we run ride tours on, when we get some time
these bikes are a hoot and almost attract as much attention as the vision

its summer here in Oz, i will be doing a ironbutt ride in a couple of weeks the only victory entered, so that should be fun

regards
Phil

I did not stick to just Victory Motorcycles. I have a Vision and my wife has a Vegas Low. I also have a Can-Am Spyder and my wife and I also ride a Goldwing trike with a Hannigan conversion. I too love riding them all and really I guess I just love to ride any bike.

2009 Victory Vision
2008 Suzuki Boulevard
2009 Honda Rukus

The Suzuki does not hold a candle to my Victory. Even though the Suzuki is a much smaller bike, lighter by 300 pounds, the Vision handles like a dream compared to the Suzuki. I even believe that my Vision gets better gas economy!!

Call ma a maverick. I just got the Vision and I use it for any riding I care to do. Secondaries? Twisties? Mountains? Super Slab? Serve 'em up and the VV will have a tasty snack.

I have a 2006 Suzuki M109r and the 2008 VV. Love em both! Always ride the Vision when wifey and I go 2up. The M109r is a great solo, bugs-in-your-teeth blast through the backroads or for cruising through town.

I also have three in my garage (trying to convince the Wife I need a forth). 2008 Black Vision tour Premium, 2004 custom built chopper, 1971 BMW R75/5 and I try ride them all on a regular basis but I have to admit the Vision gets the most use.

as vision owners know, the vision is two bikes in one - the Stud Street, or the Geezer Glide Tour
