Hi All,

I'm the proud new owner of a 2008 Vision, purchased from one of our fellow Vision-Riders members. Just thought I would sign on and introduce myself. I ordered a whole bunch of goodies from Lloyd and some of our other sponsors, so I'm sure I'll have lots of technical questions to ask when it comes time to install it all! Anyway, I'm really glad to have a resource like this forum for guidance.

Here's a pick of the bike I bought. Some of you may recognize it.

Thanks,

Paul

Welcome aboard! Should be fun as you personalize it and without a doubt you'll never regret the decision to buy.

Congrats, but I had to do a double take and check the parking lot.. Looks all pretty blacked out like that. That's what I originally wanted to do, but I wound up with other items that needed money spent on them.

Looks good and ride on!

I live in Tallmadge and ride a 2011 Vision.
Like Spiderman said, we get together a few times a year for a nice 200+ mile ride.
I'm thinking tomorrow might be a day to put on some miles.

Welcome! I too live in Akron. We will have to get together for some riding and customizing. Also you will want to fill in your profile so folks in the future will know what bike you have and your location so they can give you good answers to any questions.

I love the look of a balcked out Vision. Have you considered blacking out the upper and lower wind deflectors?? They would blend in better with your bike.

I am up in Stow. If we get all of us together, we may be able to set a world record of most Visions together at one time. I think the record is 4.

I'm just North of y'all between Akron and the Big Lake (Garfield Heights) !! Have had the pleasure of riding with Bigfoot and met Spiderman (briefly). Always up for a ride with other Visionaries. Count me in!!

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. I can't wait to get together with all you local guys.

Here's what I've ordered so far:

Lloydz intake
Lloydz fuel controller
Lloydz cams (backordered)
Ness Big Honkers
Ness clutch and cam covers.
Clear front turn signals
Aluminum lower air deflectors - black of course. One of the plastic ones was cracked.
iPod cable
Bestem bag liners


On my wish list:

Some type of Bluetooth setup. Still researching options. Suggestions welcome.
Lloydz dyno tune - when the cams come in.
LED rear turn signals - whenever they become available.
Custom front fender. Don't care for the stock one.
