    It is just a personal opinion, but I think that bike has the ugliest fairing when viewed from the front. It looks like they hired a bunch of Electrolux designers to come out of retirement and work on a motorcycle.

    Oh  yeah, my buddy has the Victory Vision and loves it.

    The only thing positive about that bike ,TO ME, is the fact that you can lay all the way over and let it rest on the floorboards and not have to worry about dropping it. It's manufacured not to fall over on its side if you forget to put your feet down or forget to put down the kickstand.

    But, I'd rather Wing it or Road Glide it. Yes, I said it!!!!! Whatcha gonna do about it????????Super Angry

       It is kinda like the old moped and fat chick joke. Great to ride, but I wouldn't want to be seen on it.

    Wow, you may have come up with something that we really all can agree on.  I'd ride a pink moped before I'd ride that retarded looking contraption.  Ick!

    Just saw an add for the Victory Cross Country - looks like a potential alternative to the Vision Cross Country

    Re: is this a Victory?

    I've talked to so many people that think this bike is awesome. I know that as a true biker, you're supposed to just appreciate the fact that someone's on two wheels, but I just can't see the appeal.

    Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his own brow?

    Looks more like Defeat than Victory.

    Re: is this a Victory?

     Well I saw them at Bikeweek and actually love the feel of the bike. The ergonomics are right on, and I actually kind of like the riding position and balance. I REALLY like the 10th anniversary model which is considerably lower in ride height, and more performance oriented...believe it or not...they've already sold every 10th anniversary model before they've all been produced....doesn't sound like a crap bike to me...
