What about this hideous .......thing! The 2009 Victory Vision, or better "no vision at all". Have you seen any bike uglier? Proof it!
And remember

I agree is not a nice bike, but for the sake of argument I do appreciate that the engineering of this American motorcycle is way better than the Harley

The model without the topbox that is far more palatable, imo... in fact it was almost growing on me.
The most disconcerting thing I found about this bike is that when I sat on it at the Bike Show, there was absolutely no view of the front wheel. |

We should probably get more input from a guy that has a Gold Wing, if anyone has a gold wing and has tested the Victory maybe can give us a better idea, since according to them that will be the category they are aiming

To me it's like a Bat-bike..........from the 70's.

Yeah right, you let me know a day later. It already cost me a sleepless night.
BTW What happened to my butt-plug? You took it out! (And I like it where it is.........)

It is actually a neat gadget. I bought it at the Yamaha dealer (and not in a sex-shop, what you were thinking
), it's made by one of the muffler manufacturers (FMF). You use it when you wash your bike, so water doesn't run into your muffler. It comes with the red "remove before flight" tag that they use on military airplanes.
