I dont like em because they just look too engineered. Give me a bare bones bike without all the sickening sculpting and retarded huge rear tires. Im building my next bike.

 

I'm with you Johnny

 

I agree, the Victory touring bikes look sick, and I don't mean that in a good way. PUKE!!!

 

I like it, it sounds good too. One thing I like about Victory is you get what you pay for, it almost comes with everything you need, unlike Harley you never stop spending money on chrome and accessories. Yes, the rear tire is way too big.

 

Good lookin scoots... bring your wrench

hmmmm.... Article posted by "polaris industries . com".... Biased? lol.... Still... The link to the jdpower ratings is somewhat persuasive.

 

Polaris is known for snowmobiles.... not motorcycles.... probably why Victory resale sucks more than Harley... My neighbor has a Victory with 70K miles which should say something for them...

 

If the gist of this thread is "Harley owners are all conformists" and "no independent thinker would ever ride a Harley", then I reject that notion. I hear good things about the Victory and on average, their styling is superior--especially with the Ness influence. I don't rule any bike maker out of my equation. I got a Harley because it is a good, competitive bike. When you find something better--trade and don't look back.
