New Bohemia, VA | I can't help but share about this little conversation I had after church Sunday with an elderly couple. The man stopped and admired my bike and asked if it was a new Harley. I explained, knowing he probably knew a little about motorcycles but not anything about Victory, I gave him the 1 minute history lesson. He then says "So, did this take the place of Indian?" I wanted to say yes, but I went on to explained to him that Indian is now owned by the company who started Victory. He was rather impressed and I could see that look in his eyes of perhaps a day when he rode wearing a younger man's clothes. |

| Nice story, I was at a friends house a month or so ago and her dad was there. He's 88. He was very impressed with the Vision. He rode until about 10 years years ago and he misses it dearly. Enjoy riding while you can, the time is not infinite. |

New York State | I had the pleasure of being an owner rep at the NY IMS I was demostrating the CCT's wind management with the aid of a large blower mounted in front of the bike an older gentleman was asking questions I suggested he throw a leg over the bike. He went on to explain that he did ride but a few years ago the state suspended his liscense and he was now 80.It stung me this fellow seemed healthy and mobile . So as someone has pointed out enjoy your saddle time you never know when you won't be able to. |
