Default Placed a Deposit on Victory Vision Tour

Placed a Refundable deposit on a Victory Vision Tour this week.
I saw this Bike on the street in key West Last week, an engineer doing a loop through Florida pulled up at a light on Duval street. I walked up to him and asked him when they were released. He told me they werent and he was out road testing. He pulled over and stopped to talk to me for about 10 minutes about the Bike. he was wearing full leathers and full face helmet(required by Victory) and it was close to 100 degrees. After seeing the bike and talking to engineer, I decided that the steel grey tour belongs in my garage with the M50. I guess you love it or hate it but I LOVE it...
Ride Safe.
BTW I was first at dealership to leave deposit in Kissimmee.

If all bikes looked the same, it would be a dull, dull world.

That is a big SOB.

Should come out in same weight range as Gold Wing and Ultra Glide.
From what I have read(probably biased) it handles like a much smaller(lighter)
bike. Time will tell..... 48 testers are going out to the MC press this week.
we should start hearing reviews.
BTW the Tour(with Trunk) starts at $19,999. street bike starts at $18,999.

I like it for the most part. Not a fan of the mirrors. Cool lines and integration. But 850 pounds for the touring version. Holy Cow!
