on the edge of Los Angeles | On the day I purchased my Vision I took a final test ride on a Road Glide HD that had a cam and exhaust upgrade. Not sure on what level it was but I am sure what would be considered a Level 1 upgrade. Anyway imediatly after this test ride I did a final ride on a Vision and the Vision definetly had a better roll on power mainly evident by its higher Torque #s.
The other item of interset was that the idle vibration on the HD made me thin that I had a brake pulsation issue as it would cause the front end to pulsate as I rolled to a stop. I know that bringing the idle up a touch would cure this but I dont ride like that.
The Freedom 106 is a great starting point. I am confident that one of us will eventually do some basic port work on the cylinder heads and with out any ther modifications this too will create a more refined power level. I may be one of those individuals but I will wait until I get some miles on her and maybe when the weater turns unfavorable for riding.

So Cal | Im not one for fixing something that aint broke. But if there is a reason to disassemble why not upgrade? I can see cam changes on the victory motor being a lot easier than the HD. Aftermarket suppliers and EPA is the big issue. Since the Vision appears to be a runaway success, that may change. Bottom line concerning aftermatket parts is profit. Manufacturers develope parts based on profitability. With victory production increasing, it may be worth looking into for some. |
