Does Traxxion offer an upgrade for the rear? I know they do for the front but no idea on the rear or if its really superior in any way.


I have no idea about the quality of the Traxxion, but they do make one for the Vision. It cost aprox. $725.00, the stocker costs $500.00. My shock is bad also, I might go with the Traxxion, depending on the warranty.

Seems some of our shocks are bad. Are most of these being replaced under warranty ??

Victory improved the hardness/finish on the shock shaft with the '11 model probably due to seal failures. Since they didn't change the part# I would assume replacement shocks would include the new shaft finish.

I made a mistake about the part#. They did make a new part# and superseded the old one to the new one so if you buy a replacement you'll get the updated shock.

30,000 miles covered under warranty did you have some kind of extended warranty just turned 24,000 miles on my 08 and it's leaking oil pretty bad yep new one is $507.00 and 2 hours to install, will be getting new one installed before my trip


I cant speak for everyone.....but when I bought my 08' they were giving away the extended warranty for free. 5 year/unlimited mileage warranty at no cost to me. Ive used it......zero issues.

I am waiting for progressive suspension. They have a unit that just needs to be adapted to fit the Vision and in the past they offer a lifetime warranty on the top of the line stuff. We need to collectively do a blitz call to progressive to urge them to develop a fit for us. I personally do not think the front end needs anything but regular oil changes.
