RE: Was this designer HAMMERED or what...2008 Victory Vision?
Yup . . . THAT is Uuuuuuuugly !! A bit too aero-dye-namic for me. I can get about as futuristic as a RoadGlide, that's about it.
Now one of those Speeders on StarWars, they have a rustic vintage look (for their era). We'd take one of those.
Actually, I really like the Police Bike in the middle of this thread . . .

RE: Was this designer HAMMERED or what...2008 Victory Vision?
well ,i have to differ from some of the posts here .
some of the stuff on the bike such as the electric actuated fairing has been around for a while on bmw , and fjr .
bmw even has an electric actuated center stand and it is a blast to raise the bike on it while sitting on it.
as far as the design ,it is way out . but sometimes photos do not make justice.
some of the best looking female models are actually ugly in real life ,they just photograph great
and vice versa for beautiful women .
so, i will wait to form an opinion until i see it in person.
it does remind me of the honda pacifica.......except on this one you can see the engine.
it also looks like the footpegs are high enough to give a good lean angle ,
i will not write this off yet........................and if it has the power.comfort and lean angle to make it into a good sports touring machine ,i may trade my 07 street glide on it

Definatly not my first choice in a touring bike

Too spaceship looking to be really functional, IMO.
I would be worried about breaking something off, but I am sure there are allot of people that will like it and willing to spend the kids college fund and get one.
That is what makes Bikers such a diverse bunch
