Just over a year ago I tested the Victory Vision at the bike's international press launch, and I can safely say that its styling is still as polarizing as it was back in the summer of '07. For 2009, Victory has added a few improvements including:
- Optional reverse
- Standard billet wheels on Premium models, which are also available as accessories
- New tweeters for louder & better sound
- Improved gauge lighting
And if the standard Vision just isn't bold enough for ya, Victory is now offering a limited edition Street version styled by Arlen Ness. Similar in appearance to the Vision ridden by Ness to Sturgis last year, the $24,999 bike wears a Ness-designed paint scheme and a numbered metal plate with "a facsimile of Arlen Ness's autograph," according to Victory. The trick Vision is clad with custom wheels, handgrips, engine covers, a 1" lower seat, and a lower windscreen. An average of less than one Ness edition Vision will be distributed to each U.S. dealer, and the trick Vision will reach laverage of less than one Ness version will be allocated to each U.S. dealer. A pricier (but less visually distinctive) proposition is Victory's $28,999 10th Anniversary Edition Vision Tour, of which less than 100 specimens will be built.
Does Ness' custom Vision do it for you, or would you rather stick to a tricked out Harley-Davidson CVO?
