We've added the Vision to our touring bike list. My wife loves it, but I think it's a RoboCop thing. I patiently delay buying a true touring bike, in hopes that Triumph will get serious about long distance touring. I love the ST, but it's too small, the Tiger is perfect for me alone (except for my 31" inseam). My wife doesn't want the Tiger or BMW's R12GS. But I want a bike I don't have to polish every week - just get on and ride.
Victory? I talked with 7 Victory owner's at bike night last night. They all had the same two words for me: Bulletproof and smooth. I just wish they'd take that "polaris" name off the badge. Polaris is a bad (lousy, not good) ATV, rated at the bottom of every ATV review.


Ride Safe, Dennis Triumph, it's how I live and what I ride.
