2011 Victory Vision ABS – Silver with Black Pinstripes

Looking for an American cruiser that truly stands out on UK roads? This 2011 Victory Vision with ABS is a rare opportunity to own a unique and exciting luxury tourer right here in the UK. Finished in striking silver with black pinstripes, it combines futuristic style, a powerful 106 cubic inch (1731cc) V-twin engine, and all-day riding comfort into one head-turning package. With 41,399 miles on the clock, this Vision is barely broken in for a bike of its caliber, and it’s now offered at just £6,995 – an incredible value for a top-tier American touring motorcycle.

Key Features & Highlights

• Potent 106ci Freedom V-Twin – The legendary Victory Freedom 106/6 engine (1731cc) delivers smooth, torque-rich power (approx. 92 hp and 109 ft-lbs of torque), paired with a 6-speed transmission for effortless cruising at any speed. This big V-twin was a class leader in performance when the Vision debuted, and it still makes highway overtaking and two-up touring a breeze.

• Anti-Lock Braking & Premium Suspension – Equipped with Anti-lock Brakes (ABS) – a feature Victory added to the Vision starting in 2011 for enhanced safety. Dual front 4-piston calipers on 300mm discs provide strong stopping power, backed by a 2-piston rear disc. The suspension is designed for comfort and control: 46mm front forks and a mono-shock rear (air-adjustable) soak up the miles while keeping handling stable and confidence-inspiring. (We’ve also just serviced the front forks with new seals, so you get a plush, leak-free ride.)

• Striking Silver & Black Design – Drape yourself in style with the Vision’s factory Two-Tone Vogue Silver & Black paint scheme accented by black pinstripes. The look is further enhanced by a Euro tinted flip windshield, which not only adds custom flair but also deflects wind comfortably over the rider. The Victory Vision’s avant-garde styling was sure to turn heads from the day it launched – a flowing, futuristic design that’s been compared to a spaceship on two wheels (one reviewer said its silhouette is “worthy of a Star Trek episode”). If you appreciate motorcycles that make a statement, the Vision delivers in spades.

• Luxury Touring Amenities – As a flagship luxury tourer, the Victory Vision comes loaded with features to make long rides a joy. You get a full-coverage fairing with an adjustable windscreen (the windshield can be raised or lowered at the push of a button for ideal wind protection), spacious hard panniers and a large top box (with an integrated passenger backrest) for ample storage, and broad floorboards for both rider and passenger comfort. The plush two-up seat and excellent wind protection mean you can ride for hours without fatigue. This model is also equipped with modern conveniences like cruise control and an integrated audio system (stereo radio/MP3 hookup) to enjoy music on the road. In short, it’s a two-wheeled first-class experience – heated grips and seats were available on later models, but you’re already set for adventure with this bike’s touring toolkit.

• Fully Serviced – Ready to Ride – Buy with confidence knowing this Vision has been thoroughly prepared by American Cruiser UK’s workshop. We’ve fitted two brand new Metzeler tyres (front and rear) for optimal grip and longevity, installed new front brake pads for peak braking performance, and replaced the fork seals to refresh the front suspension. All fluids and checkpoints have been inspected so that all you need to do is turn the key and enjoy the ride. Mechanically and cosmetically, the bike is in superb condition for its year – it’s clearly been cared for, and we’ve given it the attention it deserves to ensure you many miles of trouble-free cruising.

• Exceptional Value for a Rare Tourer – The Victory Vision was a high-end American luxury tourer when new (original MSRP was around $23,000 USD, i.e. well over £15,000). This was a motorcycle for the discerning rider who wanted something different from the usual Harley or Gold Wing. Now, at £6,995, this bike offers phenomenal bang-for-your-buck. You’re getting a reliable, distinctive V-twin tourer that originally competed with bikes twice this price – a savvy buy for someone seeking class and performance without a hefty price tag.

Legendary Design & Heritage of the Victory Vision

What makes the Victory Vision truly special is its pedigree. Victory Motorcycles was an American brand created by Polaris Industries (the same company behind Indian Motorcycle today) to shake up the V-twin cruiser market. The Vision was Victory’s ambitious flagship tourer, first unveiled in 2007 as a 2008 model to celebrate Victory’s 10th anniversary. It was offered in two versions – Street (no trunk) and Tour (with a trunk/top-case for extra storage) – and was immediately noted for its bold departure from traditional touring bike design.

Victory engineers set out to build a cutting-edge luxury touring machine to compete with the likes of the Harley-Davidson Electra Glide and Honda Gold Wing. In fact, Victory touted the Vision as “the most progressive luxury touring bike out there, loaded with state-of-the-art features”. It wasn’t just marketing hype – the Vision introduced innovative tech and engineering:

• Advanced chassis: a rigid cast-aluminium frame with the engine as a stressed member to reduce weight and improve handling, plus an integrated tip-over protection system. Victory even promised “handling and performance never found before on an American V-twin tourer” – a bold claim backed up by the bike’s composed ride. Reviewers found the Vision surprisingly nimble for its size, with easy low-speed handling and great stability on the motorways.

• Freedom 106 Engine: a 50° V-twin displacing 1731cc, featuring single overhead cams, 4 valves per cylinder, and modern fuel injection. This engine, nicknamed the Freedom 106/6, delivered more torque and power than rival V-twin tourers at the time. With ~109 ft-lbs of torque on tap, it has no trouble pulling you, a passenger, and luggage up steep hills or past slower traffic. The engine’s design includes hydraulic lifters and self-adjusting cam chains for low maintenance (no valve adjustments needed), and it’s known for its durability and smoothness despite its size. A carbon-fiber reinforced belt final drive handles getting all that torque to the rear wheel cleanly and with minimal upkeep – so no messy chains to lubricate on your tour.

• Top-tier comfort and tech: The Vision was built for long days in the saddle. By 2011, it already had features like an electrically adjustable windshield, cruise control, a premium stereo system, and of course, plush seating and floorboards. (In later years Victory added heated seats and grips and even linked braking, but the core design remained so good that the bike saw very few changes over nearly a decade.) The wind-tunnel designed fairing provides excellent wind protection and reduced noise for the rider, enveloping you in a “bubble” of calm air even at speed. Meanwhile, the distinctive bodywork isn’t just for looks – it’s a functional art piece that showcases the big V-twin like a jewel in a case while channeling heat away from the rider. The Vision truly was a visionary design, blending style and function.

Owning a Victory Vision isn’t just about specs – it’s about joining a relatively exclusive club of riders who appreciate this bike’s blend of art deco meets sci-fi aesthetics and American muscle. Park this motorcycle at a UK bike meet, and you’re guaranteed to draw a crowd of curious onlookers and enthusiasts. Its futuristic curves and flowing lines were years ahead of their time, and even today it looks like nothing else on the road. The dual HID headlight up front and the rear V-shaped LED taillight give the Vision a unique light signature at night (and yes, “V” is for Victory!). This machine was a halo product for Victory, showcasing what the company could do when it pushed the envelope – and it remains an absolute head-turner.

Despite Victory Motorcycles ceasing production in 2017, you can ride with confidence on this Vision. Polaris has committed to supporting Victory models with parts and service for 10 years after the brand’s wind-down, which means factory parts should be available at least until 2027 and beyond. Plus, a strong owner community and aftermarket ensures that the Vision’s upkeep is well-covered. In other words, owning a Victory now is no hassle – just a great conversation piece (“Wow, what is that bike?”) and a fantastic tourer for those in the know.
