| Very much appreciated.
Looks like Victory got some right and I want to see the blue Vision in person.
I'd love to have the 10th Anniversary but I don't think it's worth the added cost over a Premium. |

As you can see in my other post, I decided to go for the 10th. How'd it and the blue one's look in person? |

LaPorte,Tx. | Smitty,
Good luck on the 10th annie, really like it, that should be a very nice ride. If you get the Ice Blue.......are you going to flame it, that would be sooo cooool.  I have seen that blue with a ghost flame, silver or pearl, and it is really sharp.
Back in I think 04, Victory offered a blue flamed Kingpin, really sharp. I almost bought a set of tins and replace my 04 Kingpin tins with them.
Anyway, first 09 on order here, congratulation.  |

| Both bikes look good. The 10th is like a firefighter's bike, it's such a big canvas of vibrant red. The blue bike could use a little bit of black accent or pinstripe, perhaps. Here (photos) is a bike that is being given away to a Victory dealer in a Pure Victory Gear sales contest. It is for true patriots. Along with the paint job, it is heavily accessorized.

Reno County, KS | I love the Patriot bike. It's like Captain America's bike! LOL I don't know if I'd like to drive it everyday though. It really does look destined for Hollywood. Maybe |

| As far as I know, arm rests with cup holders are still in the works. Not ready for release right now with the other 2009 accessories – I believe; double-check it on the Victory website – but they're coming. The arm rests you might have seen in proto form last year on a show bike pivoted laterally to give a passenger room to get on and off the bike before swinging the armrests close to their body.
I don't believe the chrome handles are an accessory, so they were probably sent out for chroming by the folks doing the custom treatment on the bike.

| Thanks, the wifey wants the passenger armrests. The ones in the original picture look like a version of the Kuryakyn. Don't know why it is taking so long for a common touring option. Tim |

So, what is the problem (ECHO)? |
