'Saw a bunch of them in Daytona BW.

'Thought it was a decent effort until I saw the price here.

More $ than a SGS or RGS!!!   Really???....

'Need to get 2, one to .... on, one to cover it up with...

I hope they get a million. Some one needs to get on Harley's ass...

My buddy had an 07 kingpin, the problem he had was a lack of dealers when traveling, if he needed anything it could be a long ways inbetween.

I don't think it looks that bad at all but I'm not one bit fond of those front eye lash turn signals.  :o

You meet cool people on a HD, nice people on a Honda and these are the kind you meet on a Victory ....

 :huepfenlol2: "It's SOOOOOOOOOOO big!

Or you could be a pimp daddy ...

The first two were good laughs, but here is a legitimate review.


I always liked David Cohen's reviews and here's another one that helped me last year.



What would you rather ride? I already have what I want, but I never did try a Victory yet. Hmmmm ....

Polaris sold 25,000 touring bikes in model year 2015. Harley touring sales down 25,000 touring bikes. Harley cash cow models. Now The scout out sold the V Rod by 33% do we see a pattern.

I like the look of the machine. I do want to test ride a few bikes other than Harley. I may have gotten a little to narrow minded thinking harley is the only great motorcycle.

I could hang with getting a used one and strip it of all body panels and bags and replacing them with Harley parts or after market repops. Not a fan of any of their design work but I think the mechanicals would work for a long time.

Wonder when I'll get a new quote for the Road Glide Special and Ultra. Price didn't go up as much as anticipated so should save $500. Plus go from blue to vivid black and stay with the stock 2 yr warranty. Or maybe just find a nice used one (2009-2013) and add my own inner fairing with a different nav panel.

i was at a police officer riding competition Saturday, one department from lenexa kansas had the victorys, after talking to the officer about the victorys witch he says are not a dependable bike, and another officer could not com-peat cause of a clutch issue. he also stated the department was going back to HD cause it IS a better machine. intresting pov i thought, from some one that rides one for a living.  :nixweiss:

I do like the lady's jacket at the bottom of the page!   :D


Seriously though...has anybody here ever driven a Victory?  I've driven the Vision and it was way too plastic for me, and no soul...like the Goldwing I tested also.  Both great bikes with excellent powerplants, and they're well made and stylish, but...

Oh yes drawn in by the flashy paint and big wheel.  But I was just a little sick when I saw the rear brake master cylinder. It's like black hose lines going into the fairing and silver coming out on a sesg. Not finished at all
