Is the world really ready for a V3, Victory Vegas Vision? Let them get done and see what they come up with. The problem I have is it won't ride like a Vision.

It sort of reminds me of something from the Invasion of the Body Snatcher....

Hmmm.....kinda interesting in a way.....

Why would they be doing this? Wonder if they could possibly be doing some type of mock-up for Victory Mo. Co? I know....a far-fetched possibility. But if you open your mind and think about it a bit it could be a possibility. I mean....Arlen does do some hand-in-hand design work with Victory. Maybe someone from Victory called Arlen and started the idea? Or possibly the other way....Arlen has the idea, has his shop work some prototype of the idea, Arlen calls up someone at Victory........hey !! it is a possibility

I'll hold my judgement until they finish the project. Arlen Ness isn't one to make a hunk of junk.

Sing it with me.... F - U- G - L- E - Y - .....thats what makes me want to cry (sing it to the tune of mickey mouse club)

I beg to differ, I have seen some ummmmm "not so attractive" Ness creations. Luckily beauty is in the eye of the beerholder
OR the checkbook owner.

Amen Brother! I still think the Arlen Ness Vision from last year is the best looking one of all.

I don't give a fug for anyone else's vision - of a Vision. I just know what I like. And this thing looks like a desperate attempt to make a Cadillac or Rolls look like a Mazda. Wasted time, money and talent. Looks like an Ice Cream Vendor..... or a Meter Maid Truck.

It is like model building to me. When I use to get bored with my models I'd make something else out of them. I had one of a Pinto that I put the rear axle of a Kenworth under it with some slicks and then took a bigblock V-8 and crammed under the hood with a blower on it. It was cool looking.

But I'm sure they are not trying to make a Victory Vegas Vision, they're trying to make a Vegas with Saddle Bags from the Vision. Okay, it makes sense in my mind, but those are the only molded saddle bags Victory makes. Maybe they should have got some from a Harley and made a Vegas Ultra Classic.

I gave them an A+ for thinking outside the box. At least they are trying something instead of complaining about EVERYTHING.

My greatest fear is to retire and spend the rest of my life pissing and moaning about everything on M/C sites (probably many more sites that I don't visit). I would rather have my eyes poked with ice picks...... After 30 years of working "I" wake up, get a coffee, grab my soap box and start complaining.....

I'm guessing you have not been around the cruiser world very long. Yes Ness builds some real cool stuff, but there is a whole catagory of bikes described as Arlen's MESS.

Also that is being done at Ness in Vegas. Not by the Ness family themselves

Funny, my reaction to the Vegas Vision is the same reaction I had when I first saw the Ness Vision at Daytona Speedway last year---UGLY. After seeing other Visions it grew on me and I bought one....

Saw that thing in person a couple of weeks ago when I was in Vegas. I had to do a double take when I first saw it because I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I'll be curious to see the final product, but my initial responce is YUCK!!
