Well I was seeing what upgrades to do for the winter months and really want to do the MBW lights for a while. I've been waiting to pull the trigger and went to MBW web site to pretty much talk myself into making the purchase. I realized that the VISION LED lights were no longer on their web page, Also I discovered that MBW is now owned by Custom Dynamics (which is a good company IMOP).
I sent Custom Dynamics an email and got this response:

>>>Thank you for your interest in our products! Unfortunately, the Victory Vision LED accessories were discontinued. I?m not sure if this was done by MBW before our acquisition, or by Custom Dynamics afterwards. You can certainly keep an eye on our New Products page and if we do have some Vision LEDs available, it will be advertised there first.

I hope this info helps, and if you have additional questions please feel free to contact me.

Thank you!

So I can say I am a little disappointed and should have moved sooner but such is life. I wonder if it was just not enough interest in the product and that is why they stopped production??

No to think of another project, I am considering doing the SIC headlight refurb.

I was ready to buy from them looking at the original design prototype but I could not get past the running lights around the perimeter in the final design that they were selling. There's just not that many Visions (or Victory's in general) out there to keep any of the larger aftermarket vendors interested in providing parts that take a lot of R&D.

Are these the ones that you have to split the lenses open & reseal after the circuit board/LEDs are placed?

I bought mine directly from the Lloydz website. You may want to check and see if they still have any in stock.

They are not discontinued. Radiantz owned the rights. So when mbw sold out, they started selling them. You can find them at www.radiantz.com

Prices look to be a bit lower than MBW. No mention of upgrade kit only -vs- complete package to include mailing in your core lights. The price is most likely the upgrade kit only - $410. Front light kit $310.

Yes they are, the retro fit which seems to be the cheaper way to go.

Yes I think you have to open the lights up and put them in.

exledshop.com has them for sale


These are not the same. I don't know where these came from. Definitely cheaper. But I am almost sure that these are different from the Radiantz.

Good to know though. Maybe I will check into these. Anyone buy these???

If you think the Vision gets noticed... you have Not seen anything you have a vision with those "mbw" Lights front and rear.... i have had mine for well over a year now.. every single day is like your riding down the red carpet... if your a anti social person ... DO NOT get these lights.. as they will only piss you off.... ive had custom bike builder come up to me and ask about those lights... it just adds to the who WOW factor of the vision and elevates it to a whole other level... just saying... btw i used to rag the hell out of these lights about the Running light part of the setup.. pictures do these lights NO justice at all... when its just a running light it actually adds a cool factor to it.. i can tell you, its a whole hell of a lot better than 3 cheesy bulbs on each side of a "V" ... especially when the cross bikes have LEDS lights stock !! my led set up is part of the reason why i dont have bike Envy with new models.. including the indians... you have got to see them at night !! im pretty sure the International Space Station can see when i hit my brakes...

Mine shipped today from Radiantz. Also I used coupon code 2008 to get 15% off my order. So hopefully it will work for you too! Jim
