| Hey All My 09 Vision has arrived at the dealer along with the reverse kit and all of the chrome that I ordered. One of the chrome pieces are the side covers, however, they do not work with the reverse kit. The reverse kit does come with side covers that fit, however, I am not sure what color they are (I am fearing that they will be gray....Uggg!). My dealer is looking into it. I am wondering if anyone has, or tried to have, chrome side covers that fit with the reverse kit? Thanks Gerry

guelph ontario | I just found out the same thing-so far my dealer says no chrome with the reverse-I had mine painted black, the bikes colour. He said chroming the plastic side covers would not work well. So be it-a choice between show and go. Hopefully Victory will make chrome pieces for the reverse kit. |

Richmond, Virginia | It is in the catalog that the chrome pieces will not fit with the reverse kit. What surprises me most is that your dealer didnt know that.

Brighton, Colorado | Gercia:
When i traded in my '08 Vision for the '09 Vision, I had them put the reverse kit on it. They took off the old side covers (the gray covers just like the '08) and replaced them with the '09 side covers that would fit the installed reverse kit. They are the SAME color as the '08 side covers. Sorry. They were happy enough to wrap the old covers in real nice plastic and give them back to me. Good luck with getting the Chrome pieces to fit the reverse kit. |

LaPorte,Tx. | The 10th anniversary bikes have the reverse with chrome side covers, at least the ones I have seen, so Victory did make some. Now if you can get them or not, that maybe another story. |

San Antonio, TX | Squeak,
If you get the other Chrome side covers for the 09 w/Reverse then sell you 08 cover here....to me?

Gainesville Fl Home of the Gators | I will dig a little deeper tomorrow, but I KNOW that the 10th anny bikes have those covers in chrome, and they also have reverse. That means that though they may cost little more the chrome covers should be available as a replacement part |

Gainesville Fl Home of the Gators | The good news is that they are listed as RDM[reverse drive motor] Chrome
LH 5437678-156
RH 5437679-156
The bad news is that Vic thinks they are made out of gold, and MSRP is $623.99ea, and no that is not a typo |

guelph ontario | Ouch-just talked to my dealer and he says he can get the originals chromed for much less. I am painting mine black and spending the money on some pinstriping. With some stuff Victory doesnt seem to think any better than HD who come up with some really wierd stuff. |

Just wondering if they are bolt/screw attached or do they have automotive snaps and just pull off? I am going to get mine chromed. Thanks |
