Ok, So I have this inseam problem... Not the normal one you read about on so many motorcycle forums. This problem is the too long variety. I have a 36" inseam. Those of you who have had a chance to see and demo a Vision, do you have the same problem I do? How does the Vision fit those of us who are taller or have a long inseam? Anyone have a feel for how the Vision will fit us taller riders?

Guy, I have a 34" inseam & the Vision was most comfortable. Plenty of legroom on the footboard to stretch out & move around. My Sport Cruiser w/ mid controls is killing me (have to move from highway pegs to mid pegs for control-shifting/braking).Can't wait for VIS (her name for now) to be delivered>Luke

I'm 6'5" with a 36 inch inseam and the Vision fits me perfectly. You will not find a bike better built and designed for us long-legged or "big and tall" riders. I've been through Jap bikes (Kawasaki was great!), Triumph, Harley, and I don't think I will ever ride anything but a Victory. Love my Vision and can't wait to get on it every time I ride.

I am 6'4" with a 34 inch inseam. Look at the floor boards on the Vision and you will see how much room there is to move your foot around. I agree with what has already been said. Yes it is comfortable. You can also add a set of the highway pegs that attach from underneath the floor boards that will only allow for many more places for you to rest your foot and move your legs around on those longer rides.

I am 6'4" with a 34 inch inseam. Bike fits great. There are three positions for the shifter and brake. I have mine all the way forward. The Vision is likely the ony bike that will fit you well.

I am 6'-2" with a 36" inseam. I had problems with one knee (old football injury) that would begin to ache after 2/3 hours on my Yamaha roadstar. Bought a vision in 2012 and have not looked back. I put on the factory highway pegs just to give me more options to move my legs around.
Break-in ride was Calgary to Santa Fe New Mexico, not even a hint of pain! Since then I have done 5 provinces and 25 states. Some long days in the saddle and no knee issues.
I really don't think you can beat the vision for long leg comfort!

My '10 VV 8 Ball has the floorboards that allow me to stretch my 6'3" frame out like a teenager on the telephone. I've never even considered installing any kind of highway pegs. Nothing on the road even comes close for legroom for this moderately lanky rider...

I also have a 36" inseam. I've had HDs, Hondas, yamahas, and a Goldwing. Nothing compares to the Visions legroom with stock floorboards. If that's not enough room, there are highway pegs available.
