Hi I just saw a you-tube video from a link on another site. Some poor guy just bought a 2011 Vision and hits a patch of ice and the bike goes out from under him. I dont have the link but if you type "my crash on MT. Lemmon" it will take you there. I found the link.....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD3MuL99r9U

I have watched all 3 videos. I am still amazed at how hard the bike slammed the ground on it's right side and then he picks it up and rides it home. It also took some big stones to ride back thru the same stuff to get home after going down like he did.

Glad you're OK Bob. I appreciate your willingness to share your experience. It helps to have a thick skin.
Those YouTube commentaries can be cruel. That was a beautiful Vision. I'm picking up a Crimson tomorrow to replace my black and chrome '08--went down when SUV left-turned into my path on 2/2/11.
