New Bohemia, Va | I just laughed when a co-worker tried to jab me about my local dealer closing its doors. It was one of those "So, where do you get your bike worked on now that the dealer closed?" My reply was, "I don't need to get my bike worked on." it drew the attention of the resident Harley lover, but he didn't have any come back after I said that.
Thought I'd share that little tidbit. |

dinwiddie, va | I heard the dealership is closed, but the service shop is still running and never quit! ; ) It is funny though. I still have people ask why I bought my bike over a Harley. I tell them because I don't have to work on it, and it doesn't look like it was designed 3 decades ago |

LaPorte,Tx. | I'm actually glad my dealer lost the Victory line. Bad dealers are the biggest problem for the Victory line of motorcycles. I'd rather ride 200 miles to a really good Victory dealer and there are some, then go across the street to a bad one. And from what I've seen there are many in the bad catagory. |

New Bohemia, Va | Though Victory Dealer support is great when you have it, more to my point is that dependability doesn't demand you have a dealer on every corner. Some may disagree on the dealer remark, but I think most will agree Victory is one solid bike, that's my point. |

dinwiddie, va | I agree. I like when people tinker and maintain their own stuff. They are easy bikes to work on and service. Gets people in tune with their ride. When something doesn't feel right. You know what to do with it. Every time I buy a new vehicle, motorcycle, or motocross bike, I tend to tear them apart and inspect everything. My own personal satisfaction that everything is straight to my standards. |
