At first, I was surprised Victory refused to do anything about it. I assume it's because they're either very greedy or they really want to save face. It's too bad such a crappy company produces such a marvelous bike.

It is a very dangerous situation and a few guys on the Vic forum are fixing it themselves before it comes loose. I think that is how I read it anyway.

If you're going by the digital display, it's off. Stock Visions average closer to 40 mpg by the calculator method. I can't complain about it.

Amateur gynecologist? Damn wish I'd thought of that, I've been a whale for a couple of years now, time to get down to great white size again. Does it count if one of my sons is a gigolo?

That's better than most. Assuming a stock bike, the average for a Vision is about 38-44 average. I tend to twist the throttle a bit harder than most so my gas mileage suffers some. If I stayed around 60, I could probably get a bit better, too.
