That's right!!! Watch out everyone, at 120,000 this thing will develop a squeak like an old Ford that will drive you insane. And get this, it's from the shock link at both the pivot and swing arm end points.  You would figure those high school engineers would have developed something better!!!! 

2008 VICTORY VISION FOR SALE:  Slightly used, $24,000 Firm.  It's a classic, squeaky, but a classic none the less.

Though it positively sounds like a nuisance, I believe it will repair itself at the 150,000 mark. Be patient.

Sounds like it's tired of hauling your butt all over the place. Dump the shock for a solid rod and turn that baby into a hard tail.

Maybe it's time to hang her from the rafters like the Wright Brothers airplane.

You all just don't understand, remember the old Ford Falcons and Mustangs? These cars squeak and you can hear it even if you turn up the tunes. That is how bad mine is. It took me a while last night to pin point it, and even slapped some grease on the bottom end. I need some time to pull the top and try some grease there, but is bad. Time for bushing replacement...

And no, $24,000 FIRM - this is a true, one of kind, classic. It has tassels on it with more miles on them than most Harley motorcycles.... (isn't saying Harley motorcycle like saying the same thing twice? I think a Harley rider told me that...)

No, not really. Harley/AMF did make a golf cart. Now, if you had more miles on it than a crappy AMF golf cart, then I might consider $24k!
