I looked longgggg and hard at the Wing, before jumping for the FJR. Motivation? Mass and weight. I wanted neither. One test drive of the Wing convinced me that I want something lighter but still able to tour long distances.
No thanks on the Vision.

With the amount of bells and whistles on this thing, I think they are going to take sales away from the GW and the LT. The people who are looking at a Harley will buy Harley even if it is not the smoothest or sophisticated tourer out there. This bike is not that big of a stretch, looks wise, from a BMW LT. If I was in the market for a highway tourer, I would at least give it a look.

I think it is good looking BUT. IMO it is WAY!! Underpowered.
My wing had @@125 HP and about 120 FtLbs IIRC
So, Power is way down..........

What kind of journalist can't spell "censor?" (Probably dictated to a typist, or worse, a computer.)
I can see this thing in Miami somewhere. . . . .
But not with me on it.

I didn't think it was possible. That thing actually makes the Rune look good.

Ugly doesn't cover it. Silly doesn't describe it. That fuggin' thing is Rosie O'Donnell ugly.

If you've been tossing and turning every night, worrying that there are no bikes that look like 1950s, sci-fi rocket ships - your sleepless nights are over.
I predict major flop. Bold styling is one thing, stupid is something else.

I, personally kind of like the styling. Some people will, some won't. Maybe that is what their marketing dept. is after. Kind of looks like some of the old cars with the big wings and fenders. Harley has been stuck in a rut for years with their styling. If they ever came out with anything bold and new, that people halfway liked, the used Harley market would fall through the floor.
Got to commend Victory for having the balls to crack into a new market with something like this, can only be good for the industry.

But you left out the best part:
Are we supposed to take this ******* seriously when he can't even spell? Now, I'm no spelling/grammar Nazi when it comes to off-the-cuff forum typing, but cheese louise...this is supposed to be a "professional writer" fer chrissakes! Whassamatter Sagen? Too busy playing with your iPod to spellcheck your own friggin' article? What a hack! And a pussy as well, to whine about it.
Gee, I hope no admin decides to [SIZE=12pt]censor[/SIZE] my post! :****:

A spell check using his lazy-ass eyes would have cot it.
