Victory Vision Steering problems by year

The steering on the bike is wobbling. At first I believed the front tire was damaged so I replaced it. However this wobbling continued at take up and low speeds. Once the bike got up to about 45 miles per hours it stopped. It appears that there is something wrong with the front folks. However there is no visible leaks or signed of lost oil. Very dangerous. I love my vision but this is getting to be to much.

The victory vision has a two piece plastic front fender which is held together with plastic fasteners and mounted directly to the metal forks with metal screws. Vibrations fractured the rear portion of the plastic fender at the point where it contacts the metal forks, this caused the rear portion of the fender to fail, dislodge itself and become wedged between the forks and the main body of the motorcycle affecting steering. Fortunately the speed was low and there was no accident, however, if this incident had...

Luckily for me I was parked. While washing my vision I noticed the rear section of the front fender was broken & dangling. I removed the piece so it didn't fall off while riding and get wedged in the tire. I have been riding the motorcycle with the front section of the front fender only. It has four bolts holding it on. This morning 7/30/14 (29,700 miles) I heard a rattle while exiting the freeway. The left side has cracked completely loose. Again luckily I was only 2 blocks from work. Now I don't have a front fender on the motorcycle at all. *Tr

While riding my 2010 abs victory vision at approximately 45 mph, I heard a scraping sound from the front tire area. Since it was brief I thought nothing of it. Later, on a victory specific website someone posted that the rear section of their front fender had broken free and become lodged in the steering in such a way sat to prevent turning the handle bars. Remembering the odd sound from an earlier ride I checked my bike and found my front fender (rear section) had cracked and was loose. My assumption is that the sound I heard was the plastic rubbing the tire when it first broke loose. *Tr

Victory vision motorcycles of all years have been experiencing separation of the rear portion of the two piece front fender assembly. Fender. I have personally seen the cracks and repairs by the owners after a harrowing experience of having the fender come loose and jamming the steering. I own a 2013 vision and do want to experience the same problem. Given the nature of the defect I am surprised that no-one has been killed by this yet. I don't want it to happen to me. Since I know it has been reported by many who experienced the problem I would like to know if the ntsb has reached a conclusion or discussed the issue with polaris/victory? *Tr

The rear half of the victory vision fender is plastic. The mounting points on my fender cracked. This is a very dangerous situation as the fender blows up into the fairing preventing the rider from steering or controlling the motorcycle. This has happened to a number of vision riders already and victory is aware this hazard exists. Luckily no one has been killed. Thankfully the cracks in my fender were discovered during scheduled maintenance. My dealer, jpm performance powersports has the defective fender and...

Bolt holes attaching rear section of front fender cracked. *Js

I am writing to formally file a complaint. No incident has happened to me yet. But there is a whole lot of victory vision riders who have had a failure of the front fender cracking and wedging behind their front wheel causing steering failure. All of the vision riders are ultimately concerned and we have petitioned victory to correct the problem. They have denied. Does a death have to occur for anyone to notice? Here are a few links of lengthy discussions. ...

The rear portion of the plastic front fender has cracked where the mounting bolts attach it to the front forks. I caught it before it broke loose from the bike. If it comes loose it will wedge itself between the front wheel and the front of the motorcycle making it impossible to steer. This also happened to my 2011 victory vision as well as to many other owners. Victory simply replaces the fender with a unit of the same design. This design needs to be updated before someone gets hurt badly. *Tr

While traveling out of state on a trip, the lower black plastic front fender came loose from the fork attachments and jammed itself into the "maw/lower jaw" of my fairing making turning the motorcycle impossible at low speeds and noticeably "different" at high speeds. The hole provided in the plastic part wore through allowing the wind to catch the lower fender and lodge it into the fairing. Talking to other victory vision owners has led me to believe that the breakage of the front fender is not a rare...

I'm not exactly sure when the fender broke but I found it giving the bike a full once over just before a 2500 mile road trip. It appears that there are only two bolts that hold the back half of the fender secure to the forks. They crack out the cheap composite plastic that the fender is constructed of. The material is totally inferior and brittle and seems to be an issue with breaking and can potentially cause the steering to lockup and cause an accident or worse... A death. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 victory vision motorcycle. While driving approximately 30 mph, there was a complete loss of steering power due to the partially detached front wheel support bolt. The vehicle was coasted to the side of the road. The rear fender was disabled and removed in order for the vehicle to be driven. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who stated the front fender would need to be replaced. In addition, a new hardware mounting kit required installment. The similar failure occurred one...
