Pittsburgh, PA | any bike they didn't have on the truck for a test ride could only mean one thing... they are no longer making them... there is NO other possible explanation for this situation. what did they say when you asked them? |

New Bohemia, VA | My guess is yes, they are fasing (sic) them out. I've not seen any real popularity of the boardwalk, it could not replace the King Pin. We're really going to see how much effort Victory will put toward being the "new American Motorcycle" or if it will become a foriegn competitor. I think the new Gunner is a fantastic bike, and the Vision is revolutionary, but beyond the "ride one you'll own one" campaign Victory is seemingly losing it's luster with Indian on the focus of Polaris. It's most likely that my '08 Vision will be the last bike I'll ever own. |

Not true. There is only so much space on the truck. If it is being used for other stuff, something else gets left behind.
Asking the truck driver about what the owner of the load decided to put on the truck is like asking the Walmart truck driver what color shirts are in the load. It's not his job and he doesn't know. His job is to get the shirts to the right place at the right time and in good condition. He is not responsible for product planning, marketing, and retailing, and nobody in power cares what he thinks about any of it.
Ask a factory representative, if one is there at the demo days. They would know. Not even the dealer will know, unless they have been told by a factory representative.
