How is the Victory Vision selling?

I don't like them, about the ugliest thing on 2 wheels. I can't remember seeing one except maybe at a bike nite type event I go to in the summer months. And even then it may have been there at a dealer display. So, how do I look this up, is Polaris happy with the sales figures, or are they collecting dust on show floors? |||I see a few here in Tucson. Mostly I think they are sitting in the dealers longer than the dealer would like. I rode one and the ride was very good. I would like to hear correct mileage figures on the 106 engine at 75 - 80 mph. If the front end were a little cleaner It would help with the looks. Even so I am almost use to them. It has the feel of a distance cruiser for sure.|||If its any indication, Rider Magazine reports that for the10th anniversary Vic will improve the Vision AND build a limited edition of 100 units with the original Antares Red paint, buncha chrome and extra zoot (to be sold online for huge bucks).|||those things are UGLY!|||You know what?





I like the Vision!





You wanna know why?





Because it doesn't look like anything else!





It's about time a US made bike didn't have the same look as a bike from 1972! And I thought it sucks that the metrics are the same way! I really think that the Vision is one of the most modern bikes I have ever seen, and I am considering getting one when it is time for me to get a new bike, maybe next year. Maybe it isn't everyone's cup of tea, and that is cool, but I would bet that 10 years from now, people will see it as cool, once the market hits full saturation of "cruisers". Cruisers are not bad, just there are so many of them!|||while i don't care for them, i have friends all over usa and outside usa, everybody but everybody stops and walks over to it whenever it shows up. It is like the first ram trucks that came out a few years back, they were so ugly, they were cool.


Victory is turning heads now, and they are starting to roll with speed. The vision is a nitch market tourer, Highway bike. Their Hammer, Jackpot (Arlene Ness Styled) and Vegas are doubling sales the past few years. And there more made In America then Harley. 3 years ago I knew who they were but never saw one, now everyone talks about them....


Go America... hope they continue.
