ABS STANDARD ON VICTORY VISION

The Victory Vision has several noteworthy improvements for 2011, including:
? New tubular handlebars offer easy steering control and can accept mounts and clamps so a rider can add a cup holder and all common electrical device mounts.
? The dampers have been removed from the side storage compartment covers for easier opening.
? Passenger handholds have a black, textured finish so a passenger has a better gripping surface and there's no paint to nick or scratch.
? The redesigned exhaust tips now resemble those of the Victory Cross Country.
? Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) is standard on the Victory Vision Tour. Sensors on each wheel monitor wheel speed, and if they sense slippage or wheel lock, the ABS provides instant, effective braking to slow the vehicle and help the rider maintain control.

PROVEN OUTSTANDING RELIABILITY

Victory has a track record of consistently outstanding reliability and dependability, which has led to the industry's highest customer satisfaction ratings. This proven reliability, along with the new transmission design, allows Victory to recommend extended oil service intervals for 2011 drivetrains.

? The recommended oil change interval for 2011 models is every 5,000 miles (8,000 km).
? Less-frequent oil changes results in a lower cost of ownership.

NEW TRANSMISSION

The Victory drivetrain team scrutinized every component of the engine and transmission and fine-tuned the designs and performance of numerous parts. Approximately 40% of the drivetrain is new for 2011, with the transmission receiving so many improvements it is virtually a new transmission.

The changes: improved manufacturing efficiency and quality assurance; enhanced drivetrain's already-impressive reliability; improved engine performance; and, for riders, improved ridability and delivered a more appealing-sounding transmission.

oIn terms of operating sound, selected modulation frequencies have been eliminated. This produces a more-appealing sound - consistently in each gear. In 4th and 6th gears in particular, gear whine has been reduced.

oDriveline lash has been reduced by 66%.

o"Neutral Assist" has been added to make it easier for a rider to shift into neutral when stopped. This will reduce the rider's effort, will reduce clutch wear and will lessen the performance demands on the oil.

ENHANCED INSTRUMENTATION

All cruisers now have instrumentation similar to that of the Victory Cross Roads, which provides a rider with a wealth of information in one, easy-to-read location. The new instrumentation includes:

? An analog speedometer, which may be set to show MPH or KPH.
? Blue backlighting.
? A large LCD that displays: Clock (time of day is viewable at all times), gear position, tachometer and diagnostic readouts for Victory dealership service technicians.
? The gauge face includes lights such as high-beam and neutral indicators and the oil warning light. Cruisers no longer have these indicator lights atop the triple clamps.
? The Cross Roads instrumentation also has an always-viewable fuel gauge.

CHASSIS CHANGES ACROSS THE LINEUP

All brake calipers, rotors, lower belt guards, and floorboards are black.
? All left- and right-hand switch cubes are black, as are the audio control switch block and cruise control switch block.
? The triple clamp is black on all models except the Vegas Jackpot (which retains its chrome triple), and the Victory Cross Roads (which retains its brushed finish).
? A new side stand on each model features an integrated hooked-end design for easy locating and easy control of the side stand.
? All cruiser exhausts have a larger outlet for improved sound quality and a lower exhaust note.

2012 Victory Vision Tour Features and Benefits

106 CUBIC-INCH FREEDOM V-TWIN
At the heart of the Vision Tour sits the Freedom V-Twin power plant, expertly balanced for the perfectly controlled explosions that deliver 97 horsepower and 113 ft lbs of hole shot torque. Maestro of the motorcycle world, it's what keeps man, machine and highway working together in perfect harmony.

DUAL ZONE HEATED SEATS AND HANDGRIPS
The Vision Tour lacks for nothing in the comfort category, and as proof we offer up heated seats and handgrips as exhibit A. Together they offer the best means of enhancing your road warrior reputation, by adding precious road time to both sides of summer.

29 GALLONS OF TRUNK AND SADDLEBAG SPACE
True to the bike and shaped by the wind itself, the injection-molded trunk and saddlebags provide enough storage space to comfortably get you and a friend all the way to points unknown. Don't hesitate to bring everything you could possibly need for the ride - even the all-important hair dryer.

6-SPEED OVERDRIVE TRANSMISSION
The highest performing transmission on the road receives the power generated by the massive V-twin and seamlessly turns it into something you can use. Neutral Selection Assist and helical-cut gears ensure every shift is as quiet and smooth as the one before it.

ABS BRAKES
Standard on the Vision Tour, the Victory Anti-Lock Brake System doesn't discriminate between dry, wet or rock-strewn pavement. No matter what the conditions, ABS monitors what the wheel is doing and gives you consistent, smooth braking from the handlebar lever down to the rubber on the road.

CRUISE CONTROL
After making every other aspect of long haul cruising as effortless as possible, the throttle hand still had a beef about being overworked. By adding precise, automotive-style cruise control, the right mitt can now simply hang on and enjoy the ride.

POWER WINDSHIELD AND FULL-COVERAGE FRAME MOUNTED FAIRING
Some riders feel they're not getting their due without wind in their face. Others prefer calmer days in the saddle. With the push of a button both get their wish - power the windshield up for full protection with wraparound faring, or slide the windshield down for the gentle wash that comes with the ride.
