I was at my local northern Illinois Victory dealer the other day to check out the changes on the 2011 Vision exhaust tips (slight change but '08 to '10 tips will still fit with minor trimming of the new muffler end cap) and had a discussion about changes to the Vision that Victory has discussed with him.  Apparently because Honda has made changes to the 2012 Goldwing to enlarge the saddlebags (not by much, they moved the taillights to up under the trunk) Victory is thinking of changing the saddlebags on the Vision to give nearly as much room as the saddlebags on the Cross bikes.  It could be interesting as long as they do not change the rear end look as that is one of the things I love about the Vision.

I love my Vision but the saddle bags could certainly be bigger. IF they could increase the size of the bags without radically changing the rest of the design, I'm all for it.

That would be AWESOME! PLEASE, PLEASE MAMA VIC, DO IT!

WAIT, oh shit. I'd have to sell my Vision I just bought and buy a new one. That wouldn't be so good for my wallet or marriage. Ehh, F it. I'd be worth it!

Maybe a new beginning will be with us starting in July 2011.
That would be a great improvement on this otherwise great bike !

as long as they keep the classic vision style. Maybe a Vision II or Vision LTD...

If Victory is smart and they do come out with new side bags, they should make them interchangeable with the existing VV models. It would be an upgrade accessory that would provide additional revenue for them.

Indian has done this with the new bikes, all bag, seats, etc are interchangable and pop off with a twist.

Easy to do when your bikes are all the same bike... Don't they only have three "models"?

At least Indians are now they're own and not a Harley clone.
