Richmond, Virginia | As a lot of you know, when i purchased my Vision, i orderd the Tribal paint only to find that it was not available. So to make my bike stand out without it, i decided to chrome her and do a black and chrome look. The 10th anniversary edition paint scheme really appealed to me in some of its detail, so I got the idea to use the same pinstripe that they used on the 10th anniversary
and trim out my black street premium the same way. I ordered the same width painted trim striping and put it under the bottom edge of the side bags just like the trim on the 10th. It looks awesome, doesnt jump out and reak of overkill, but it does add a nice sophistication and clean line to the sweep of the side bags. Will get pictures to anyone if you like the idea and want to dress your bike the same way. I have plenty of the trim left, so let me know will send it to you.

New Bohemia, VA | It certainly don't stand out, I stood right next to the bike looking at all the new chrome and stuff and never even noticed. At least you could have done Macon was say, "check out what I did!"
Good looking black, by the way, doesn't even look like its been riden much.  |

Richmond, Virginia | The pinstriping didnt come from Victory boys, it came from................... NAPA AUTO STORE or Pep BOYS or whatever that
place is called. its 1/4 inch frosted silver stripe paint. I have a huge roll of it so if any of you want some, just email me directly and
I will mail some off for you to use. Sorry if my original post was confusing, I was trying to say that i duplicated the stripe position that is on the 10thy anniversary edition, not that I ordered the same stripe from Victory........... (for those of you who thought that,
remember, the stripe is black, and my bike is black... uhhhhhh no see it !! ha ha ha) VARYDER ,,,,, thats mean !!! ha ha
are you confusing a regularly cleaned and polished bike with one that has low mileage from lack of use??? I have 5000 miles on it since last October , but lets face it i cant ride it all the time while im adding all that chrome.. just cant do both at one time, not to mention all those regular gifts Victory keeps sending me, i overwhelmed with opening packages ..... man life is rough. |

Memphis | I did the same thing to mine last year. Front fender, fairing, saddlebags, trunk. 3M 3/8" gold metallic. Subtle. In this pic I was actually showing off the Vision Pilot shirt. (Thanks Crawford!)

Barrington, NH | I like the pinstripes! I think any pinstripes/graphics makes these bikes look even better than they already do.
This is my 1st attempt at attaching photos so hopefully it works, it is a photo of one of the visions at the Victory Corporate offices during the 10th anniversary tour. |
