“Almost all owners I know are having rear brake failures on their Victory visions with ABS. The brakes seem to taking air in and you are left with no brakes. 2011 to 2017 I have gone to use my brakes and found I had none in the back. Causing me to use all front brakes and of course a much longer stopping distance. This is very dangerous.”

On going issue that puts rider safety in danger. I have had the brake lines bled repeatedly and is only a short term fix. This can happen at anytime, after being stationary or while riding. On-going issue, to many dates.”
