Hey guys, new to vics I've owned my vision for a little over a month and love this bike more than anything. But I've got a really weird issue with the cruise I'm trying to sort out.

When I have the cruise set and hit the turn signals (left or right) the cruise cancels and absolutely will not resume/reset unless the bike is turned off and back on.

I've already disconnected the roll off switch to see if that was the culprit and to my shock it wasn't.

If the cruise cancels using the brake levers I can reset it once the brakes are let off. (I'll reconnect the roll off and report back on that)

It seems to only be an issue when the cruise is already active and the turn signal causes the cancel, if I turn the cruise off, signal, turn it back on it's able to be set.

Has anyone seen something similar? My first guess is a bad module or something weird with the bulbs the previous owner did.

We have a Vision and since the resale in our area has dropped off we’re thinking about stripping the panels off and giving it a different look. Anybody in here done any custom work like that? I’d love to see pictures.

Rant incoming

I am in Toronto it’s raining today. I was just going southbound on Bayview on my Victory Boardwalk at Davisville. Light turns green according to the weather conditions I was easy on the clutch but the old guy in the SUV going north decided to turn left right away right in front of me. I honked he layed on his horn and kept going. Normally I’m pretty quick off the light but am feeling grateful that I didn’t do that this time. I felt like following this old guy home and giving him a face full of my helmet but thought better of it. Just a friendly reminder that even when we’re right we lose.

I dont know if im completely wrong or somethings broke, my clutch is engaged while riding and when i try to adjust it I cant get it to go far enough out, the upper and lower adjuster come together and its still not far enough out, advice would be appreciated

As the title states, I've been looking at getting a cruiser and came across the above mentioned victory models. I like the looks of them stock(I'm not a big flashy chrome guy, prefer the looks of more understated/lightweight cruisers and bobbers), and they seem to be fairly affordable nowadays, so I'm considering going for one.

My questions are: what do I need to look out for on these bikes when looking to buy? Are they good for someone with a 34 inch inseam when it comes to weekend cruising? Any pain points/recommended mods and fixes I should look into getting done? And finally, how would they compare to the Indian scout/(sport)chief and would I be better off going for one of those?

I'm handy with tools, I fix all my own cars and bikes, and I'm not afraid to do *some* work, but I'm not looking for a bike that's constantly gonna be on the stands, y'know?
