Monrovia, Ca | Cannot pay the bills selling a couple of bikes a month, even if they could get full retail.
Was there this morning. I picked up a couple of tee shirts and poster off their walls. Sad to see them go. |

Arcadia, CA | Wow! What a shock it was when I read this post. I just bought my pearl white 2011 Vision from there last Thursday and I haven't even picked it up yet as they are still doing some custom work on it. They made no mention that they were having to close their doors.
So, after reading this news I called Greg @ Cycle Dragon to see what the deal was. First, he assured me that their closing will not effect the delivery of my bike with all the customizations as promised. Secondly, the closing comes down to (as most things like do) money. The cost of being in business has sky rocketed which makes it next to impossible for small dealerships like Cycle Dragon to survive. Although I understand their plight, I wished they would have said something about their impending closure.
Hopefully, I can find another dealer locally who is as knowledgeable about the Vision as they were. |

North Orange County CA | Grastech:
I've been happy with Southern CA Triumph / Ducati / Victory in Brea. They seem to know which is the business end of a wrench, and have treated me well. |

Monrovia, Ca | Grastech. I am in Monrovia and the president of the Greater Los Angeles Victory chapter of the VMC. Things will be ok. Brea is a good alternative. Many of us have bought there also. So. Cal Victory in Brea is having there annual open house tomorrow.
Obtw, saw your bike this morning. It is beautiful.

| Does anybody have any experience yet with Mission Motorsports in Irvine. I spoke with Greg this morning and he suggested using them for my chirping belt rather than Brea.

North Orange County CA | The early Visions were pretty notorious for this problem; my 2008 has never had an issue with belt chirp.
I can only attribute my good fortune to one of two things, pure blind luck, or perhaps I had a mechanic who knew how to set up the bike properly, and has maintained it correctly ever since. Who knows?!
My bike has never been touched by anyone other than the guys at Brea. |
