Posts: 639 Tri Cities, WA | My wife and I finally got it done and we now only have Victory Bikes in the garage. My Wife sold her Black 09 HD Street Glide which was very sweet in Oct because back in late July when she seen the 2012 Cross Country Tour she said I have to have that bike. She test rode one and that's all it took. She really wanted it and said it rode so much better than her HD. So we went down to our local Vic Dealer and asked them when they place there next order please order one Sunset Red XCT which they did. It showed up about 13 days ago and we went down and made it happen signed the paper work and it's hers now. So now we are a pure Victory family household.
The only bummer to this story is that when they un-crated the red beauty it had a scratch on the fairing (due to shipping) they said but it was only in the clear coat. So my dealer removed it and sent it off to the local paint shop to have it buffed out and re shot with clear. Well the first go around the shop didn't get the clear just right because ma vic puts a hint of tint in the clear coat to help protect the paint underneath from fading so back to the shop it went (with the clear coat specs from ma vic)and now we are waiting for it. If it comes back and it's still not right my dealer said they would just order a whole new fairing from the factory.
Mean while the wife is chomping at the bit to get it home because we have had some sunny days that we could ride mid afternoon here in E-WA. Been in the 50's believe it or not. So that's our story on our new addition to the family garage. Cant wait till next years riding season. So if you see a black vision and red XCT flying down the NW roads that will be us..  |

| We are also a Vic only family. Started off with two Honda VTX's. Added my 10 XC and the wife's 09 Ness JP in November of 09. In July of 10 I added an 08 KP Premium to the stable. Sold off my VTX. On November 6 we traded in her VTX on an 08 Vision Tour Premium. Good thing I had a 16x20' shed built to house them all! |
