Tiger, I wish there were visions around here to freshen up and sell. I saw an add in the paper in 2004 and again in '06 , mentioning a Vision for sale. But nothing since.

 :) Rick, I advertise on the internet, (kijiji, buy and sell, etc,), for Vision(s)/part(s)/Parts bikes...that is how I get to "find" them ;)

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA lets go again baby !!!!!!

'82 Vision, Pearl Orange finish, lots of up-grades!!!

I guess I could try , but we're a long way from anywhere , its 40 miles to Bullhead, 60 to Havasu, 100 to Lost Wegas , 150 to flagstaff, and 180 to Phoenix.....  I'll give it a try and see what happens.

:) Rick, nothing to loose, as the advertising is free, however, maybe something to gain is just around the corner... 8)

 :) Finished her off tonight with a Stainless Steel braided brake line up front...the brake fluid was brown and scanky looking when I opened up the master cylinder :o :P Line on, bled off lickeredysplit... 8)

Threw on a new in-line gas filter just for the hell of it!!! ;D :D :D :D :D :D... 8)

I have to say that this must be the best Vision to come through my place since I got "The Mistress" four years ago...she has been a real pleasure to get ready for the safety certificate and ultimately a new owner. Somebody is going to get a real gem... 8)

Tiger I'll give it a try  at a 100 mile range , any farther than that and the recovery costs will eat me up.

 :) Well, a guy came to see her on Sunday but is torn between a 2008 Suzi' 500 or the Vision :-\

He likes unusual toys, not run-of-the-mill cookie cutters, sooooo.......I gave him until the weekend to make a decision, either way... ;)

A GS 500 Suzuki isn't half the bike the vision is. Its not as comfortable or as fast . Its a fair handler , but not comfortable on long rides.

#11 now has a new owner...as does #13!!! (which was Wolf's one-owner-from-new Vision!!!) The two were sold one day apart to teenagers, one in Orangeville who took #11 and a sixteen year old from Hamilton who took #13.

They both have the ROV site details. Hopefully, one or both will join us...
