Lansing, MI | I posted this over on The VMC and I wanted to share it with you guys too:
My son had a Cub Scouts meeting last night and I took him to it on the Vision. His buddies and their parents thought the Vision was the coolest thing ever! The kids couldn't believe he got to ride around on it. When one of them asked what it was my son was like, "it's a Victory, a Victory Vision. It's American made." I loved that! Made me proud!
When I went back to pick him up the den leader asked me if I could bring the bike to the next meeting and tell the kids about it and answer their questions. Brain wash some kids with Victory info? SURE! WHAHAHAHAAHHA!!!! (Evil laugh)
While he was there I took my daughter for a ride. Two of her friends from the neighborhood saw her on it and when we came back they ran over to our drive way and were just as amazed as the Cub Scouts were.
My kids were like rock stars!
Anyway's, we had a great time just cruisen' around and jammen' to the music. Another thing that was cool is the fact that we didn't see another bike anywhere because it was only 40 degrees out! That made it even more special...
I almost forgot - My son told me last night "Dad, that thing is the coolest motorcycle ever, it's the coolest one I have ever seen! I hope you have it forever and dad can I ride it someday, you know when I'm old enough?"
I thought that was way cool!
Have I mentioned I love this damn thing?

flagstaff, AZ | The only way to make riding the vison any better is to be riding with your son with him on his own bike.  |

Fantastic, thought for a little while about trying to getting them for the Vision. Then saw the Thrush mod here, I'm happy. At WOT the pipes sound a little like a topfuel car. |

Tifton, GA | Took my daughter-in-law with us last night for a ride. The wife and our friends said she started out holding on tight to the handgrips, but relaxed and seem to settle in real quick. She was a very good passenger and got off with a "rode a Vision grin" at the Dairy Queen. My son followed in the cage when we started to leave he ask if she wanted to ride back in the cage. "Heck no" was the reply as she was pulling the helmet on. Got to our house and they went to the Victory website to look at bikes. |

That's real cool! I like the fact that they went to look at them. Get the word out!
