Prescott Valley, AZ | I bought the Tour model and ordered the panel to make it "trunkless" when the SO isn't in the saddle with me. I live in a windy environment and the trunk does tend to act a bit like a sail in crosswinds. I've been a "street" model for the last two months, there is a noticable difference without the trunk installed.

Northwest of you | I started out "the other way". I bought the tour but picked it up as a "street" and the trunk has just been "hangin around". |

Evergreen, CO | Ours started out as a tour model also, but as part of the purchase, we also acquired the street's passenger backrest and the filler panel where the tour's trunk mounts. I converted it over to a street within days of the initial purchase, and will keep it that way as long as we are doing only day rides. We also do a number of 3-4 day weekend rides, and one LONG ride each summer, and will convert the bike back to a tour for those trips only. That's what's great about the vision....it's a true convertible!!! We get the nice sleek lines of the street for most of our use, but have that behemoth trunk to use when it is really needed. And with everything locking, there is less anxiety about leaving the bike unattended if we are on a trip, fully loaded, and want to stop and take a small hike to stretch our legs during a long day of riding. |

Murphy, Texas | The fact that the Vision goes from Street to Tour fairly easily and that it looks pretty darn good either way is one of several reasons why I love that bike.

29 Palms California | Simmer down now...sim-mmahh, duuuun, naah. Poor poot. He takes one riding boot out only to replace it with another. Hows the leather taste? Funny, could be a tough, testosterone filled red blooded American man, but play with one rooster beak back in college, and Poots labelled "that peckersucker". I didn't mean that. He only did 3 times, and didn't like any of the times. |

Oviedo, FL | So it is possible to convert the street into a tour with the addition of the trunk? I was informed that you could change the tour into a street but not the other way around. |

Linwood, MI | Yes. You just need to buy and mount the trunk. The electrical connection is already there, wait for you. 
Oh, and I think there's something you have to do with the license plate bracket, but I'm not sure on that one... |

Tacoma, WA | Mine was bought as a street, but is usually dressed as a tour! LOL! The license plate bracket has to be taken off to remove or install the trunk. of course you install the bracket after the trunk has been put on/taken off.....-----Metalguy |

Northwest of you | I went in to buy the Street, but the dealer didn't have one, so, I said I'd take the Tour if he "threw in the Street Plate" and I drove off with what looked like a "Street". Since then, my wife has convinced me to leave the trunk on (she rides a Kingpin, so it's totally a "looks" thing for her), but I much prefer the street. Perhaps someday I can convince her to take this bike and then I can have a "Street" (that's a "funny" word, when you think about it) |

Leander,Texas | mine is a vision street and i dont regret it at all still looks good maybe even better because you can truely see the "hoggish" back end of the bike and people freak out on how it looks futuristic but also so damn cool because they can see the rear of the bike better. |

Pittsburgh, PA | Is it cheaper to 1) buy a tour and make it a street OR 2) buy a street and make it a tour? |

Evergreen, CO | buy the tour, make it a street...by far...only need to buy the filler panel. plus, you can elect the "comfort" model on the tour that is not offered on the street. best bang for the buck |
