Indianapolis, IN | Folks have been cutting up and modifying motorcycles for decades. Someone needs to step up and shell out a little cash and be the first to make it happen. Do we have any takers?? Com'on this could be the beginning of something awesome. ;-) |

SC, Bluffton | What you have there is a winner! Put those bags on the Vision Tourer and Victory
will steal even more Goldwingers. That is my opinion anyhow.

Northeast Ohio | Taken from a concept post I made a few years ago, how about the version they asked my opinion about.

Northeast Ohio | I think all of us are expecting this to happen. I hope we are all wrong and they just make the bags bigger. Otherwise, I will be trading in my 08 on a Limited Edition 11. |

North Orange County CA | Wasn't a fan of the "Vision Bagger" when proposed in 2009. Like it even less today. Everything looks like an afterthought. front half flows, the back half is all angles and irregular surfaces. Its just weird looking.
I imagine the directives to design going something like this.
"Oh crap, we need saddlebags!" Picks up phone "Hey, Mike give us some bags will you, make 'em REEEAL BIG, OK?"
six weeks later........
Picks up phone - "Which one of you idiots forgot the trunk?"
Designer - "I distinctly remember that you said saddlebags, you NEVER mentioned a top trunk""
"Ok, don't get so huffy (damn artists) we'll get Buford over in purchasing to source us a trunk from China real quick. Hey while you aren't doing anything , think you can whip up a luggage rack so that we have something to mount the trunk on? Good man, I'll need that by 6pm."
"thanks"
hangs up. |

Troy, NY | Nice....but there is no tip overs in the rear of this design....so you would have to change that...which might include chnaning the front. So, I think get a Vision or get a Cross County...or both

| The tip-overs were a must for me when I bought 2011 Vision Tour...Today I am SO GLAD that I had them as I layed the thing down turning way to tight in a road side park....Mostly dirt/gravel in lot and I was barely moving, but these things saved any siginificant damage to a $24,000 bike...... |

I guess I should have searched a little farther back
Great images John.
I personally, would like to see your 'Vision Bagger' on the showroom floor one day.

Georgia, west of Atlanta | The picture is intriguing, but I doubt Victory would tool up for that when they already have the Vision as is and tha Cross bikes. But like Cap said we'll see in just a few days......... |

Flowery Branch Ga | I don't think they should change the overall look of the Vision as it all flows so nice. If they can make the bags bigger internally, that would be ok.
