Just thought I would say Hi. I rode a 2013 XC for three years before I test rode a Vision in Blue Fire and all I can say WOW, I should have tried the Vision to begin with. The XC was nice but this Vision seems to be what I have been always looking for in a bike, as I felt in tune with it from the start. I came from a series of Harley's and a Yamaha before I tried Victory and I have to say I am hooked !!.

Did you keep the XC or trade it in? I so badly wanted a Hammer when they came out because I loved the looks and still do. However, in all seriousness, no wind protection, no storage and the Vision handles so much better, I hardly ever take the Hammer out.

Me too. The XC series are nice bikes. The Vision is nicer as a tourer (saddlebag debate not withstanding). The XCT wins the saddlebag debate. The Vision wins everything else, at least for us.

I traded the Vision in on a 2016 CCT this fall. After 2,300 miles, I miss the seat comfort that the Vision has. I will say after adding a Madstad winshield, buffeting is better than the Vision. I will have the seat re done and widened this spring.

I traded the XC for the Vision. I really liked the XC with the after market add on's I installed but there was just something missing in the feel of the ride for me, and my wife was not comfortable for more than a hour at a time. But as soon as I left the parking lot on the test ride at the dealer I knew I wanted the Vision, and the wife just loves it. So win win for me.
