Akron, Ohio | Going to the dealer today to look at a 2010 Vision. I like my 08, but with the current offers, I am going to see about upgrading. Depends what he offers for my bike. He has a blue and seashell with ABS that I really like. |

Pittsburgh, PA | why upgrade to a 2010 when you can do a true upgrade and get a 2011? |

New Bohemia, VA | ...I would say, depends, all are quality bikes and I can wait a little while longer for the "new and approved" 2011 Vision to get a great deal on a 2010. I don't see getting rid of one tried and true just to get another one of the same caliber. JMHOAIASTI |

LaPorte,Tx. | If the price is right, I'd go for, even with the 2011s coming soon. The one your looking at has the ABS, so the only improvement if you want to use that word, is the transmission gearing. Also the blue and sandstone color is a really cool color and only one year, so it is special. Hey, good luck! |

Clarksville, TN / Ft Campbell, KY | Sorry, but going into yesterday's purchase/order I was all over a 2010 White Tour. But after sales negotiations I felt that the difference in price (just a couple thousand) and the changes to the 2011s made it worth going to a 2011. And I like the Crimson better than the White, but the clincher for me was the round handlebars...... HAAAAAA!!!! |

Akron, Ohio | Well, guess I'm keeping my 08. I was really dissapointed with the offer from the dealer. With the value loss of my bike, it almost makes it worth looking at a Harley. But I really like the Vision. |

New Bohemia, VA | ...what is it that you're hoping or looking for? Is it that you just like to up-date every couple of years or are you having concerns with your '08? I'm just curious. Resale is always a contentious subject, and I never buy something ever thinking about that because I like to use it up, but I would never ever expect any real value out of any motorcycle unless it is unique and a collectors item in great shape. You could always ebay or craigs list your Vision as the dealer will never give you what you are looking for out of it. |

Southeast Iowa | The last 2 Vics I traded with my dealer held their value as good if not better than any HD. How does your dealers offer compare to NADA book value? |
