Hampton Va		Hi all...There dosn't seem to be very many short guys riding the Vision. Everyone I see in here seems to be 6' plus. And it seems Victory thinks that also. The factory highway pegs mount where I can't even reach. I am almost 5'6" and shrinking with age....LOL... so I desided to do something about it. I mounted some pegs right to the floorboards...it worked out great! Here are some pic of what i did. A little side note to this...after i built and installed my deflectors, what little bit of heat that was left was taken care of when I put my feet on the pegs.

Regina Saskatchewan Canada		Well you're not the only vertically challenged person on this forum. I'm 5'5" with a 29" inseam and the first thing that drew me to this bike was the seat height and the styling. My thoughts with the highway peg mounted there is that it could tend to get in the way,

Hampton Va		thought so at first but just rode it and I had no problems...I was paying atention to that to see if it would. I also went to Victory for that same reason. My first bike was an 8-ball...sold it for a Vision.

Eden Prairie, MN		Nice work Racershawn. You gotta do what you gotta do right?
I'm 5'8'' and feel like the bike was built for me. I did move my shifter back to the back notch for comfort otherwise I can stretch out to use all of those floorboards front to back.
