That video was one of the things that got me considering a Vision last year.

Not sure how you found that. I'm just going to assume it's because you're considering a Vision for your next bike.

Actually, I was watching Pat Condell, specifically his post on Transcendent, which is as far from motorcycles as one can get. I just saw it in the side bar and decided to look at it. I thought the Aussie was a rip. So is Pat Condell.

What I do like about the Vision is the fixed faring and luggage that seals well. The electric windscreen is nice too. It's like an Ultra and RT had a baby. What the guy says about the brakes is true though. I was unimpressed.

Having this guy reviewing a luxury tourer is like having a vegan review a Ruth's Chris steak dinner.
