I like the bike as a concept and as we all know, it does at times have influence that someday goes into a production bike. I think Victory does look forward and has production, design and quality standards second to none. They are not crazy about becoming the number one bike builder, They tend to pick niche markets that they can play in and be profitable. Key word being profitable. Some might call it conservative, but I believe it's very smart given the economy we are in especially when your products are something that people can be without.

Having said that and seeing the Core, it does suggest the current platform (non Vision models) are going to be changing. Just hope they do not come out with wooden seats!! The traditional Ness influenced line should be taking on a new look, that tank has been around since the introduction of the Vegas. So whats up for the 10 and 11 line up??

Not saying that I am an expert but most people I meet and see on all the forums I read, that some type of bagger might be necessary. I am thinking more on the lines of the TC, not in looks put that type of bike. Just hard bags, not the Vision type whistles and bells. Another thing that I do not understand is why (this is just an example) didn't Victory offer a King Pin with hard bags. Simple, not out of the ordinary, color matching bags. I know they now offer them as an accessory, give it a new name and offer a factory hard bagged bike. Options...... I think H.D. does this very well.

Last but not least, I must admit I did not care for the looks of the Vision when it first came out. To futuristic looking, not traditional MC looking at all. Been looking at it fairly close for the past 6 months. When some of you started taking off the box on the back and adding a luggage rack and passenger sissy bar, it perked up my interest. I do like the looks of the Ness, but just to much $$$ for it. Vic has put out some pictures of a Blacked out Vision. Knowing them they will call it an 8 Ball, why I don't know. I actually like it! Now if the economy just starts picking up.

Thanks
