Now that the Vinson has been around for awhile, what are your experiences with it and would you buy another one if you had to do it over again?
Thanks Bearman

The only promblem I've had is the shifter. It's at the dealer now getting the shifter kit installed. Yes, I would buy one if I had to do it over again.

Tell me about the Vinson Shift kit. I have had trouble with the sifting on my Vinson. The dealer did adjust the linkage but it still gets jammed and is sometimes hard to shift.

I haven't gotten it back yet. I broke some other stuff and the dealer told me that my vin number fell in the range of the needed shift kit. They told me it takes about 12 to 14 hours to fix it. The have to pull the motor and trans. out. They replace parts from the shifter all the way inside the trans. It is supose to make it shift like glass and take out all that noise that you can hear. I guess I'll have to wait till I get it back to see how it works. The dealer did say it would be like night and day difference.

Do you know the range of vin numbers the shifter repair falls under or can you get it from your dealer? After seeing the m.s.r.p of the Honda Rincon the Vinson is looking better all the time! Thanks in advance for your help

couldnt get the vin. # range, but the newer vinsons are supose to already heve the kit in them. So the Dealer said. After I get mine back, I'll email you with my vin. Maybe yours will be close to mine, if that will help.

Thank you for trying to get the numbers BadVinson, I have not bought the Vinson yet but wanted to see if the one on my dealers showroom needed the update before I bought it. I can't make up my mind to buy now or wait for the 2003 models
