Thank god it doesn't have the vision rear end. That is what stopped me from buying the vision. Good looking bike. The midget on the bike makes it look huge.

they are given Test Rides at AN Shop in Dublin on some of the other Visions they have, the Rack is a Custom Rake and not all of the Bikes have the rake only the Special Builds that AN does and you Pay for it.

I love seeing new bikes but I have to say that thing is gross!!!!! I am not a big fan of victory just yet although they have come a long way in the last few years. I bet in a few more years they will be making something thats my taste.............. but I'm still sticking with harley haha.

I think it looks pretty good. I'd not own it, but I like the touring aspect, so I wouldn't own an SG either, unless it was to have as a second bike.

Is that rake stock?? Or are these pics of a one off custom?

We were at Ness's place a couple weeks ago and my buddy rode the the Victory touring bike. He really loved the way it rode. Lots & lots of power and VERY balanced. He had a hard time getting over the space ship look though.

Like the Gold Wings, they are also a better bike than our Ultra's but they ain't a Harley. But, with that said, I think Victory is doing their best to give the Harley experience but with an overall better up to date technology. My 2 cents.
