They look like good bikes for the money.

I have passed and watched many disappear in my mirrors while screaming my FXR up Hwy 40 toward Laughlin. That's the extent of my experience with Victory,Does that help?

I have an 06 Victory Jackpot and I love it. I have never had any problems with it and the only time it's in the shop is for the scheduled maint. on it. I think it is a very comfortable bike to ride, and to be honest it does turn alot of heads. There are places that are starting to make after market parts for Vic's, but they are limited(compared to Harley) I would suggest finding a Vic dealer and taking one out for a spin....you won't regret it;)

i own a 04 vegas with 24k on it. it is probaly one of the best bikes made. to get a harley to out perform a stock victory you'd have to stick $5k into the harley. after market parts are rare but getting better and it comes with so much stock you really don't need much more. realiability is great. go to the jd powers website and check out the poll. go take a harley and victory for a ride and you'll see the difference between dinosaur and modern bike.

I see a few around here and there, and I've passed many on the road. I don't know if they're slow or maybe just slow dudes buy them? I've also heard they are a pain to wrench on and very few aftermarket parts are available , aside from that I guess they're O.K.

They are and they are the ONLY truly American made cruiser style motorcycle (made by Polaris) other than straight customs. Two thumbs up over the Hardly.

They are expensive by are recognized as having the best VTwin engine available. I'd buy one if I was going to trade down from a Goldwing.
