Service Brakes · at 36,000 miles · reported Mar 28, 2016
Have had several issues with rear brake failure. Rear brake pedal goes all the way down, and does not engage the brakes. No leak signs of any fluid. This seems to be a serious problem with victory motorcycles after doing some research on line. Www.vision-riders.com. I have had my bike in the shop several times with this issue. The brakes were bled every time the rear brakes failed. I was traveling on a city street, a black in color chevrolet truck had pulled out in front of me. I immediately applied by front and rear breaks. When I applied my rear brakes, the pedal went down to the flood. I…
Fuel/Propulsion System · at 40,000 miles · reported Jun 20, 2014
My gas gauge is not reading the fuel levels correctly. The gauge will only go the 1/4 level even when the tank is totally full of fuel.

I have taken it to the dealer and they said they bleed the brake lines and all was good. After the riding season and letting the bike set for 3 months the same thing happened again, no rear brakes.

I coasted to a stop and found that the bottom rear edge of the front fender was lodged in the lower body frame opening of the motorcycle, making steering impossible. The front fender of the victory vision is composed of two pieces, with the front half metal and the back half plastic, attached with two side bolts and two top pins through holes in the plastic rear portion. The plastic had cracked completely through at the two side connections and broken. The…
Structure · at 53,489 miles · reported Aug 12, 2013
Rear portion of the front fender broke off and got jammed into the lower section of the front fairing. No crash or damage at this slow speed but could have been very bad if it had occurred at speed.
