BlueSky Posted February 28, 2017 Share #10 Posted February 28, 2017 Looks like it has a comfortable seat for one person and an upright seating position. I think it has possibilities for one rider touring. 4 exhaust pipes probably indicate a smooth running haul butt 4 cylinger engine. Looks to be similar to the Kawasaki Versys. Definitely not the cruiser style seating position that seems to be the preferred choice these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kretz Posted February 28, 2017 Share #11 Posted February 28, 2017 :sign thanks but noSport bike with space for your sandwiches. That's about it! Imagine having your lady on the back of that! Showed the pic to my wife (who rides passenger) "Get Serious!?" was her take on it. I just couldn't see her perched up on that pillion seat. Looks OK (for a sport bike) not my idea of a touring bike. But again it's about the $$$$ who are they aiming it at, definitely not Venture/ RSTD style riders. May do well in the UK/ Europe where sport type bikes rule! Thank goodness for some sanity this side of the ocean! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaseyJ955 Posted February 28, 2017 Share #12 Posted February 28, 2017 I do like it, it looks like a really competent bike that can do quite a bit. I dont see it replacing the Venture but it's cool. Looks more like a sportbike that has some real world survivability. It looks like a variant of the Tenere. Not for me but still . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stickhandle2 Posted February 28, 2017 Share #13 Posted February 28, 2017 I like it, but I do like the spot tourer type bikes and really like the naked bikes. Looks like I would be riding solo with this one though. Still a cool ride. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

venturesome Posted February 28, 2017 Share #15 Posted February 28, 2017 Looks like a naked bike with a bikini on!! However, I would like to have one to ride naked, I mean er... I would like to have a naked one to ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djh3 Posted March 2, 2017 Share #18 Posted March 2, 2017 Hopefully they used different market source analysts than Victory did to try to figure out what they think people want. Not for me. But hey I like the Vision so to say my likes are.... um unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snyper316 Posted March 2, 2017 Share #19 Posted March 2, 2017 I like the vision too, been trying to find one... Living life one curve after the other. Vroom scooting, thru the countryside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSky Posted March 2, 2017 Share #20 Posted March 2, 2017 Looks like the foot pegs are really high. I don't think my 72 year old legs would like being folded up that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Posted March 2, 2017 Share #21 Posted March 2, 2017 looking for newer touring bike .. MT10 not even close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eusa1 Posted March 2, 2017 Share #22 Posted March 2, 2017 i put a leg over this bike a week or so ago at the local dealership. it's cute and just an r1 with taller handlebars, and not a touring bike at all in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaharly Posted March 3, 2017 Share #23 Posted March 3, 2017 I'd have to say the Ventures, Voyagers, Goldwings, Vulcan Voyagers, RSVs and the like are luxury tourers. That being said, I'd be interested in the MT-10 but if I was going to go that route I'd take the what is it called? FJR1300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
