Victory Vision! - Team-BHP

BunnyPunia · 16th July 2007, 17:38

OMG OMG OMG
This was all I could mutter out the first time I saw this beauty...err.. beast.. or whatever! I could never imagine this machine would go into production!

The company wants to battle it out with the class leaders like the Honda Gold Wing, Harley-Davidson Ultra Classic and BMW K1200LT...Well well well

The first impression you get of the Vision literally drops you jaw down. Everytime I see the bike, it looks like a prototype, like a future bike, but in reality, you can shell out $19,000 (for the base version, with prices going upto as high as $21499, double that of a litre class SBK!) and get one.

Powered by a 1731cc engine, churning out 96 horses but most importantly you have 147Nm of torque to play with. That is ten times as much as what the CBZ extreme pushes out!.

I have seen the best and worst of bikes in India : The tiny Mito 125, the huge Triumph Rocket III, the mammoth Honda Goldwing... and I m sure some one of the other is soon going to order this too... Time to get in touch with contacts then...

Quite good bunny, vision incorporates the people's design so to say.

man looks like a prototype of the 70s and 80s to me! but is awesome!

Rtech · 3rd August 2007, 18:35

If I had to ride that, I'd make sure I had a full face helmet with a dark visor!

Hellcat · 3rd August 2007, 20:16

Yes read about it in this months Motorcyclist. It won motorcyclists Tourer of the Year choice. Real radical blend of american and new gen cruisers.

okay, so it looks a bit ugly. you can't argue with that much torque though.

jkdas · 4th August 2007, 00:49

19k $$$ 150Nn torque, come on you have better options:P

MT01 costs 19k and then you have goldwing...

huh? i was under the impression the it was given to me for free.
if i had to pay, i'd definately take the MT01, or maybe the MT03 and a miata? ok now i'm getting a bit carried away.
