| Personally I'd like to see a single-side swingarm. That'd eliminate any need to make sure the belt is centered on the rear sprocket then I'd like to see sequential tail lights standard as well as a redsign of the saddlebags. Way easier way to change the headlights would be great too. I'd probably go with the grips off the top of the line Indian too...I liked them a lot better than the grips on my Vision.
That said, this is the most comfortable bike I've ever owned.

Fountain Inn, SC United States | Makes sense that upgrades will come in the next model year. My Vic sources say the current body panel dyes are nearing their end-of-life so they either invest $$$ to duplicate them or $$$ to make changes. While they may no longer be considered the Victory flagship, Visions still sell and still stand out in a crowd. And no other Victory handles like them.
Outside the box: An electric model? |

Johnny don't just hit & run, especially with such a broad statement. You either need to say that's a guess on your part or provide sources/reasoning for such a statement. Otherwise it has no context or credibility. |

New Orleans, La, | I would like to see a evolutionary new Vision cause I feel the look is , as the original ad put it, " iconic". A new liguid engine with the architecture of the Scout but size and cylinder angle the sane as the current model. That alone would igive the Vision better performance and ensure it would meet future polution reqs.. Second a decrease in the number of body panels and a change from screw and bolt mount to push peg and grommet mount. Lastly upgradged electronics ie comprehensive info system, single sided swing arm, and a redesign of the headlight allowing for easier access of the bulbs. I think those changes alone would bring the Vision to the head of the touring class. Like I said evolutionary no need for revolutionary changes. |

West Salem, WI United States | I heard the same thing on Saturday from my local dealer. New lineup in 2016 that includes a new Vision (no details on what they are doing) and a new smaller displacement bike very similar to the Scout. |

Albuquerque NM | I'm sure it will be a cross country tour premium with a fixed fairing. I'm not saying that it's a bad idea for the company to do that I'm sure sales would skyrocket. I personally am going to hold onto my 08 for a long time to come. |

Georgia On My Mind.... United States | Leave my Vision alone! I kinda like it.
I thought I wanted the F6B, but it's too cramped and compact for me. Plus, you can't get ABS. I mean, really, no ABS?
Real men ride pink! LOL! |

I have checked out the F6B's recently.... they are certainly a long looking bike; in overall length. Pretty cool.

Real men ride pink! LOL! It has more room than the Goldwing and the Canadian version has ABS. If they are shipping to North America, why would they leave off ABS in the US and keep it in Canada ? |

New Bohemia, VA | Some don't like ABS, the idea of a "stripped down" bike appeals to a great majority of "bikers", is my guess. |
