Princeton, IL | The weather here has been beutiful and I finally got the Vision back on the road after a winter of mods and changes. The pullback bars have been fixed and installed, a new back half of the front fendr (look how low that baby goes!), and lowered again. I am very happy with the winter mods. I took it out today for a ride and she rides like a dream. Every time I make a change I think - why didn't I do this a long time ago! The riding season came a bit earlier than it normally does in the upper part of Illinois so not everything got done that I wanted. I at least got the stuff I "really" wanted completed. I still need to put ont he skid plate but that should be a quick weekend project. For now, I just wanna ride!!!!! I know it is not a great pic but I didn't have much time to take it to a nice location (or finish cleaning the bike for a photo shoot)

Akron, Ohio | Victory talks about having lines that FLOW through the bike, they need to look at yours and see what that really means! Really like the paint and the way it all comes together, BEAUTIFUL!!

| SammyJ explain what you did to the back half of the front fender please. The only thing that would make the photo better is your wife on the bike |

John, I bought the back half of a rear fender from HMD520, modified it a bit to be the shape I wanted and had it painted. It is much longer than the stock one and I hope will protect the bodywok much better. I have attached a picture to show the difference.

Thanks for the compliment! I tried very hard to make the curvy lines appear even curvier by the use of color.
Thanks to you all for the compliments, it means a lot coming from a bunch of folks who have such great taste in motorcycles to start with! I am very flattered. |
