Posts: 172 Prescott, Az | I used to have a Honda 1300 VTX, which is a fine machine for a cruiser. I just needed a bigger bike. I still ride with my VTX friends.
The other day we were about 10 miles from our destination and I asked my friend if he'd like to ride my Vision the rest of the way. He agreed. Robert is a very conservative rider and usually lags behind the pack. He got on the Vision and the next thing I knew he was gone. I was riding his VTX and pouring on the coal to catch up. The bike I formerly owned was shaking and the wind was howling and I felt like I was on a bicycle. At 85mph I heard myself say "Oh my God!" as I felt I would get blown off the bike.
Robert finally slowed and when we got to his house his only words as he climbed off were "Oh my God!" I couldn't agree more.

Posts: 172 Prescott, Az | Unfortunately Robert is facing a layoff at Honeywell which could come at any time. But, if he could buy one ...he would. I feel it was cruel of me to give him a taste of the good life knowing he can't afford it right now. But that's the kind of guy I am.  |

| Boy do I know that feeling! I put 250 on the Vision Saturday and part of it was running 75-80 w/another Vision and a Harley. If I'd been on my old 1300 VTX I'd have been hanging on for dear life.

Posts: 99 Kansas City, Ks | My buddy has a VTX1300c and fears riding my Vision.. The fear comes from the fact that he knows that he would want one after the ride and the 1300 would loose a little of it's luster... |

I would almost bet that some point the rider of the Vision uses three other little words and their initials are:
"WTF!?" then followed by these three little words "This is AWESOME!"
