vow , lots of bashing and no real appreciation for risk takers.

victory is a risk taker and look how far they have come as a competitor to hd .

from my point of view i will n ot pass judgement until i see it , the vision, in person.period.

also, those who criticize hd on design, i give you this take.

the most succesful car maker ,and profitable ,is PORSCHE .....AND THE 911, a 40 year old design that has been updated ever so slightly.
remember when the 928 came out .........it tanked ,yet it was a great and beautiful car. but it was not an air cooled 911. the purist will have nothing to do with it.

same with hd and the v-rod except the v-rod is still around ,and with luck hd will keep trying new things around their classic lines .

so,those on this board who have trashed Victory and those who have trashed hd.........
it is all in the eye of the beholder ............

and there is no need to trash unless of course if you are so insecure and emotionally incapable of looking at things in a neutral manner ,and appreciate the element design and risk taking

remember ,,he who dares ,wins.........and i think that Victory has a winner in their hands .

and i will not hesitate to trade in my street glide on this bike if it is in fact technically superior to mine . ,handles better ,and the design works for me .

it is up to harley davidson to keep me in their fold thru inovation and design ,not me.
