I couldn't be happier with my 07 Ultra.
Victory is butt ugly. I doubt the ridiculous designs will last long.

It's a bit late going back to this thread but I've done some research and math concerning something very important to me - storage capacity. Like the Vision or not, it is very lacking in storage. The Ultra has 25% more room in the trunk and saddlebags than the Vision. That is enough for me NOT to consider a Vision. I gotta have room for my stuff! LOL

Ultra 35.9 gallons
Vision 28.8 gallons

Saw one at the Laconia Bike Races, this past summer.
Not my idea of what a bike should look like.

It's good to have more builders in the USA but I don't care for the Victory line.
The motor may be good but it is not pleasing to my eye.The style of the bikes are sorta clumsy looking.
The Vision is too strange for me.

That thing kinda looks like a cross between a Goldwing and a BMW. Kinda mixed DNA thing. I'll stick with my 08 Ultra.
