| Victory doesn't yet have an "entry level" bike, so I'm thinking the new model will be lighter weight, have a shorter wheel base, lower seat height, smaller engine, maybe along the lines of an "883" Sportster. Victory has a cruiser (kingpin), muscle bike (hammer) and tourer (vision), but they don't have an entry level machine that would appeal to the increasing female market, entry level and first time buyers. Stay tuned ....we will see tomorrow.

NW Illinois | They have the Vegas Low in the same category as a Sportster for vertically challenged riders. Of course the ride and smooth power band, and handeling of the Vegas blows the Sportster away.
If were talking entry level will it be an Automatic?

San Antonio, TX | I just received an email from the International Motorcycle Shows that stated the following.
Victory's World Debut of a Prototype Concept Bike
This all new concept motorcycle is developed by the designers and styling team behind the Vision Touring Motorcycle, but brings a very different concept to form.
Using new technology and incorporating design elements to create a motorcycle only a manufacturer could produce this bike is beyond the wildest dreams of any custom builder.
This would be at the New York Show. Is anyone going to go to the show? If so take a camera!!!! Has anyone heard of this????? What's Up?

LaPorte,Tx. | What is your guess as to what type of motorcycle the prototype is? Here is my lean on it. After some conversations with Victory folks, I think we are going to see a sportbike from Victory.   |

| It's a 750cc "beginner's" bike. Think mini-Vision.... |

Gainesville Fl Home of the Gators | I think it will be an unrealistic concept; much like the original watercraft looking "Vision" concept from a few years ago. |
