Duanesburg N.Y. | Nice looking bike, gotta shit can the typical victory after thought exhaust system. It just messes up the whole back side of the bike with those giant mufflers. You would think there must be a way to keep the noise down with out those cans hanging out in space. I was really hoping for an kick ass flat tracker, well maybe next year. |

New Orleans, La, | I just had an eiphany guys, the Zach Ness version is the one that will have the 17 in wheels, sport rubber, light weight crank, an overall weight less than 620, triple disc, and a cool exhaust. Don't laugh, it might happen tomorrow. After all he is the sport biker of the Ness family. Just saying |

They should have called it the "Bastard" because it looks like the offspring a Cross Roads and Vegas that drank too much and had a one night stand...
That being said, change the goofy looking side covers / seat with something more normal looking and it would be fairly cool, IMO. Either way, I hope it's a hit and they sell the hell out them.

Green Bay, WI United States | 116 inch worked over Lloydz with NOS, great stop light bandit. I agree with cook06vegas, it does have a "bastard" look. Taking the damn cans off the exhaust and add some real tires, lowered and a small naked bike type fairing. The pictures don't do much to let you know how it really looks. |

Central New York | I'm sorry, but that is one ugly bike. Hard to believe a company that designed something like the Vision would release something that looks like a High School project gone ary. |

Central Nevada | Personally I like it. Back in 84 I bought a new Honda VT500 Ascot, sure reminds of it. Loved the handling and nimbleness. Kinda like an old school superbike, just better, Victory better. |

| I like the new bike but if I get another Victory it will be Vegas. I would like to get an Indian but with one still in college that won't happen for a couple years at least lol. |

New York State | I had the pleasure of being an owner rep at the NY IMS I was there when the sheet was taken off. I really like the Suade Sunset color it is different.
I sat on the bike I prefer foward controls and bars that reach back to the pilot. I think this bike will appeal to owners of traditional Triumph's |

| Note to self, don't get excited about victory unvails. Been a let down. Or maybe I'm expecting too much. These are just pieces together parts off other models. Oh well. Just glad I love my vision! |

I've been accused of being a cheerleader for the Vision, but with that in consideration, I have an appreciation for all two wheel machines. I love the Vision, the comfort and the ride, but I would love to have an Indian Chief sitting in the garage. My wife asked if I was to get one, would I ride it everyday. My answer to that was no, only because I would want to keep it pristine, but I would ride it at least 5,000 to 6,000 miles a year. The Vision would still be my "love to ride everyday" bike.
My thoughts exactly. Maybe we can get a group buy together! :-) |

Troy, NY | Not a fan. Look at all the cruiser bike Victory has too offer. They all look very similar. I think they would be better served with less bike options but more after market customization. Basically change rims styles, fender styles and a couple other things and you can almost create the cruisers they have are offering. Victory's best bet would be to have a bike in the $12-10k range to differentiate the model pricing. |

Fountain Inn, SC United States | Check out Zack Ness's custom Victory Judge, it looks much different than the stock Judge.

Southeast Iowa | The Judge is nothing more than a Vegas with some fresh skins and tires but at least it has a cool name. The way Victory has been going I thought for sure they would have called it the Cueball, Softball, or Bigball or some other retarded "Ball" name. What's up with Victory's Ball fetish anyway?? All of the bikes launched since the X bikes late 2009 are just tweaks to existing models The Highball, Cross Roads LE, Hardball, and XC Tour are all examples of this. Not a bad move by Victory....it cost a lot to design and engineer a new platform so you might as well make as many variations of it as the consumers are willing to buy. If Victory keeps pace with past product launches we are due for somthing significantly new next year. My guess is they will make a smaller entry level bike that they can spend the next few years creating "Ball" versions of like 8, High and Hard........ |
