I just spent the day in Barbers Museum and noted a glaring omission.

There isn't a Vision in the whole place.

Last year, just before the Indy MotoGP, I got a tour of the whole operation at Barbers and I didn't even see one in the "back room" where they have about 1000 bike to restore.

So, be proud when you ride up and park your bike in the circle in front. With all the rare, exotic, expensive, and unobtainable stuff inside, you're riding something that they don't have an example of.

several years ago there was a post from someone who had aquired a few bikes from a private collection including an 82 V that had 4 miles on it (you read that right)  if i remember right they were going to donate it to Barbers...
