Here's a video done by Andy on the whole Vision lineup for 2009. Might answer some of the questions I've seen floating around. Watch it in the high quality mode (just under the bottom right hand corner of the video window).

Enjoy,
Reg

There seems to be more differences than just color. I like how the headlight doesnt turn on Until the bike is started. I think thats smart. Also better speakers i see and did they say Louder audio system... i would like to see what software and hardware the NEW radio has.... can someone sneak into a dealer and findout... lol

I think you're going have to be patient until September, when the new bikes start shipping to the dealers.

Also, it looks like the 10th anniversary model comes with a reverse.

What happens if you are going down a dark winding road and the bike stalls? Does the headlights go out until it is restarted? Sounds like it could be a safety issue.

I do not think that the Vision needs to start for the headlight to come on. I believe that you have to do it hit the starter switch not start the engine.

"Louder audio system" could just be more efficient speakers (e.g. Like the J&M replacement speakers).

They should have increased the CB volume output as well.
