Memphis | 10 - They were too busy programming the iPod playlist. 9 - Last time they stuck their hand in the windstream it tore a rotator cuff. 8 - They were too busy tweaking the power windshield. 7 - They were reaching back to turn off the heated seat. 6 - They were programming the GPS route to “Most Scenic”. 4 - They were staring at the rain shower ahead and thinking “Should I put on my rain gear? Nah.” 3 - They were daydreaming about life compared to their previous ride. 2 - That wasn’t a wave. They were answering the Bluetooth. 1 - They did wave. You were just too busy staring at the Vision! |

Puyallup, Washington | Alright, I give it a go.
5 - They were busy unzipping their leather jacket because, even with the temperature at 39, with the heated seats, grips, and wind protection of the Vision they overdressed. |

Carrollton, TX | #5: They did wave for the first few miles but their arm got too tired trying to wave back to everyone insight that waved to them on the new Vision. Everyone wants the person riding the Vision to notice them. One of the challenges of ridding such a cool bike! |

29 Palms California | #5- They were waving for the bar tender, One Burbon, One Scotch, and one beer...thats alot of waving.
#5- They were not waving, it was the finger, quit eyeballing me boy!
#5-Never waved, Under comon road ethics, instilled in them while they were HD guys, they only wave at bikes as cool as their own.
#5---is there anymore coffee in the pot? |

New Bohemia, VA | Visionman, I've heard more than once, deer are creatures you cannot predict, they don't even know what they are going to do. I hit a deer once in my pickup. I saw it, I slowed down and it looked like it was going to stay put, then with one giant leap it came over the fence into the road right in front of me. I hit it just enough to stun it and knock it down. I heard a sad story about a motorcycle safety officer who was at a seminar on motorcycle safety. He commented that out of all the hazards on the roads, deer was the only one he couldn't second guess. He feared that one day, one would take him out. On his way home from the seminar, bam, one got him and his prediction came to pass. I only share this, because you my friend you where one of the fortunate ones. May we all be one of the fortunate ones. Ride safe!
