The Risks Of Buying A Victory Motorcycle In 2021
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 ноя 2021
- 💭 If you want a Victory Motorcycle now, you have to REALLY want one and possibly pay a premium for any of the few that are still for sale. Polaris promised support for parts up to 10 years for the Victory Brand so there's still an opportunity to fix broken components. With the opportunity to fix broken parts, there's still a risk of owning a Victory. The motorcycles are fantastic, though but what is it like owning a motorcycle that you'd possibly have trouble finding parts for or one that's no longer being produced?

🙋🏾♂️ Who is Bicasso:
I ride motorcycles with the full-time career of being a System Administrator. I'm like the majority - I work a lot for a living and have to find time to ride either on my commute, after work hours, on the weekend, or with the two weeks vacation I get from work. A constant goal is finding a balance between working full time, riding motorcycles, creating content, and being relatable to many of you out there.

Make sure your a member of victory owners group! I have found great resources and advice on older/current bikes if all brands from heart dedicated owners!!
I've owned a 2010 victory cross country, Harley streetglide & roadking and a Indian chieftain. Victory is the more comfortable than everything I've ever ridden!💯 I have sat on a honda goldwing and felt like they were made for very short people. Im 5'11 and out of the box without doing any mods to it.......Victory is the best v-twin motorcycle of all 💯💯💯💯💯
Two years ago I traded my 2014 Havasu Red Victory XC in for a 2020 Harley Road Glide. At first I was disappointed after the trade mainly because of the Victory’s better suspension, the deeper exhaust note, and the ability for me and wife to ride in comfort without any modifications. Im 6’5, shes 5’9. After the past couple summers I very much appreciate my Road Glide over the Victory for many more reasons. Do I have some regrets? Definitely. I never should have traded it. I would love to have both. I just didn’t know it at the time. The Victory is a special machine. If you have one, keep it. Even if you want a newer style motorcycle, make room and keep your Victory.
At one time I had a 2013 Highball and when I retired from the Navy I bought a 2013 Hard Ball. After Polaris announced what their intentions is, I traded my High Ball for a Harley CVO (Big Mistake #1). Then a friend offered me good money for my Hard Ball and since I was riding it less, I sold it (Big Mistake #2). Moving forward, I own a Road Glide which I love, but back in June, a guy here in San Diego put his Hard Ball up for sale, within the next day, its sitting in my yard, I had to have it. My only complaint is that I cannot find better exhaust, one day I will. Beautiful Vic there btw!
The Company DID NOT SHUT DOWN! Polaris just discontinued the Victory to focus on INDIAN! They still make Victory parts.
Just buy a Harley, we ain't going NOWHERE.
I own a 2007 Jackpot with 10,000 miles on it in mint condition. I tried to sell it once and at that time nobody was buying Victory, this was shortly after they announced the were shutting down. I wasn't going to give it away so I decided to just keep it and eventually just get another bike to go with it. I figure one of these days people will realize how great these bikes are, they'll be classics and the value will go up. The only reason I was selling it was because I'm almost 60 and I'm ready for an old man bike.
I have a 2013 black flamend Cross-country with 67000 miles and it is still immaculate.It's the best bike I have ever owned and I will take the bike to the grave
Every time I start to get worried about parts for my Victory Judge, I drive it down the road and my worries melt away! I'll ride my Victory until it won't go anymore. While the paint and fairings may be problematic after 2027, things like the kickstand, handlebars, clutch, starter, ect. Don't absolutely need to be victory parts. Other aftermarket parts will fit just fine.
I'm 66, I have been riding 50 yrs (M/C license '72). I bought my first VIc (XC) off a buddy 5 years ago: I own 3 today. I can afford anyt bike I want....I just like these bikes. I have the Anti Freeze green and went down six months ago and drove from L.A. to Denver to buy another exact color but didn't have the heart to get rid of the original so I patched it up (heavily battlescarred) also own an Arlen Ness Vision....these will be the last bikes I ever own...
Sold my harley to get my vegas
Thanks for beating the Victory drum guys. As an XCT and Vision owner, These are the best bikes I've ever been on. It's unfortunate that many riders were so caught up in a lifestyle of certain bikes, that they refused to ride one of these and witness first hand they are superior bikes. Many miles with smiles I wish to you guys...
I've got a 2003 Vegas that I bought new. It's been EXTREMELY reliable and the performance is satisfying. I've also got a 2010 ANSS Vision. It has 40,000 miles on it and rides like new. Nothing feels like a. Victory nor looks like one. I'm keeping them forever!
Thanks for having this conversation, it is appreciated.
I purchased a 2013 victory XC a year ago this month. I love the ride,the storage capacity and the overall look.
Great job on this video.
Just bought me a 2011 Cross Roads and I gotta say I haven’t been happier with a motorcycle. I remember my uncle had a Cross Country when I was a kid, and it was burnt orange with black accents. First time I saw him take off down the street, all I could think at that moment was “I want a bike like that”
That’s the most beautiful bagger ever !!! 🙏🙌 Love the Victory bikes !
I went back and forth between the cross country and a Street glide. Back in 2014. Once I started shopping around, every bike I passed on the road was a street glide. Decided to go with the XC. Couldn’t be happier. Did a big wheel kit 26inch, lowered, and exhaust right off the show room floor. Haven’t had the slightest problem out of it. 15k miles so far. I rode the brand new XC at a dealership then less than 30 minutes later rode a brand new street glide at a dealership. I’ve done pegs, offering grips, bag fillers, upgraded speakers and added an amp. LED headlight and a couple of things. No comparison in comfort. The floor boards are massive on the XC. Your legs are stretched out in front of you. I felt cramped on the street glide. Like the bars and instrument cluster was right in my face. Same with my knees, felt like they were in my chest. My knees were bent at a 90 angle. Almost every time I ride I get compliments on it. Even if there’s a few Harley’s riding with me. People look right passed the Harley’s and start asking questions about mine. Never fails. Love that windshield and color btw. Don’t plan on selling my any time soon.
Great video. Beautiful Magnum. I started out with a 06 Vegas and fell in love with Victory motorcycles. Moved on to 07 Jackpot (one of my bucket list bikes I'm never parting with), 16 Vegas and then 16 Magnum, (other bucket list bike). They are hands down the best motorcycles I have owned or rode. In a sea of bikes the Victory always stands out. No mistaking a Victory for another bike, Always gets compliments. I would recommend riding one if your on the fence about purchasing, especially if your 6 foot or taller, leg room is unmatched. And the parts availability issue, I've had no problems so far, time will tell I guess. The only things I've had to replace is general wear stuff, (tires, brakes, oil and filter). Absolutely no regrets .
