I own a 2014 Victory XC and I just Purchased a 2018 Indian Roadmaster last week. you couldn't pry them out of my cold dead hands!! EVER! still hoping for a Victory comeback one day. great Videos. Nice Channel
I love that you bought a Victory! I also hate having a bike like everyone else so I own Victory (Vision) and a 2017 Roadmaster. Bike really sounds good! Enjoy !
I'm glad you like it! Having ridden various Victorys, I have a very mixed opinion of them. But, I don't talk smack about what other people ride - as long as you ride, you're in my cool book. Plus, it's *your* bike, not mine - if you're happy, I'm happy. Also, I 1000% agree with you on the RPM, thing. Victorys are very fast bikes, as long as you ride them like a Victory (instead of like a Harley).
Nice choice. I love my 2013 Victory Cross Country Tour in Boardwalk Blue. It has the Lloydz VM-1 cams, high flow air filter, Timing wheel, 1/4 turn throttle and Atombomb exhaust, raised the rev. limiter. Rylan from the Vic shop installed all the parts and dyno tuned it at 109/110. I also have many of Witch Doctors after market parts installed on the bike. It has approximately 31,xxx miles and is so comfortable and rides so nice with the new Dunlop Elite 4 tires I just had installed. I've owned, Kawasaki, Suzuki, and Honda's motorcycles. I've ridden both Harleys and Indians but my Victory is the most comfortable out of all of them.
Momentary Lane Change Feature: Move the turn signal switch left or right and hold it in that position for at least one second. The momentary feature will activate and the signal will then cancel when the switch is released. Directly from the manual.
Beautiful bike. When Polaris shut down the Victory line it was a kick in the gut to me. I just love the marque. They are so well designed and engineered, so dependable, that the only descriptor that I can think of is a Honda Cub (worlds best motorcycle) on steroids. The exclusivity alone speaks volumes. Good choice.
I didnt even own one yet and could have still bought a Street Glide. I called them when the news hit and voiced my objection. I had no idea at the time how bad the situation really was and its still a big surprise.
Bought a CCT 2 months ago and absolutely love the bike! Tall guy like myself can really stretch out on it, unlike HD and Kawasaki bikes. Super comfortable. :) As for the camera angle, I like it. Kinda gives the feeling that the viewer is riding behind you and looking over a shoulder. :)
I have a new Magnum. I just got it and havent rode it 10 times yet. But it is so comfortable. Suspension is even way above expectations in the back. Nice in the front. Like a Cloud most of the time. Also loving this bike and have not clicked 2k miles yet but I see riding this maybe forever. All Magnums are beautiful and the attention they attract can be dangerous if you are not an experienced rider. So be careful, people are around you are going to be distracted as they drool! So unique and nice so im putting on the Ness Forged Bars next week! So cool owning this, I really wish they sold better...so many really lost out on this. I also love all kinds of motorcycles. Out of the world of Bikes It really does offer so much more than HD in performance, style and looks.
I've drooled over that X1 at Mom's(don't worry, I didn't get any on it .. ;-) ) ....I'm sure glad you snagged it. Any XC looks great in white, but that X1 has stand out paint..its a knockout. If I had bought new it would have been in white, instead I found a "can't say no deal" of a slightly used 2013 XC in Sunset Red...4 years and 50K miles later its still rock solid and looking sharp...
Great vid...please def do a walk around vid for this beautiful machine...I LOVE my 17 suede pearl white XC and my bithcin 16 suede titanium metallic Gunner!!! Long live our Victories!!!
Nice Magnum. Great color. My '14 CCT is the most comfortable motorcycle I've ever owned. They do like to rev move than previous bikes I've had but that's fine. Enjoy the new bike and ride safe!
Just ran across your video man you make some nice videos from that pretty white victory. Now I’m at the Indian still looking at content. Come on back my brother come on back keep the videos coming.
Nice looking bike. It's good to see you back on the RU-vids. I don't know if you're aware of it, but there's a week long motovlogger meet up this July. Last year it was in North Carolina, this year it will be in NH and Upstate NY. Although you don't need a formal invitation, I thought I'd reach out and let you know about it. It was originally called the Homestead Hootenany. Now everybody just refers to it as the Hoot. If you're interested reach out to me and I will fill you in with the particulars. Again, I love the white pearl bike. RSMF.
I get what your saying I could stare at my Victory Hammer all day. These Victory bikes are designed by artists...or rather were designed. That X1 Magnum though, that's a dream bike. Really love the '15 X1 and '16 stealth X1, on my radar for the future Polaris be damned I'll fix it myself!
I think I've watched this video several times...as well as the I sold the victory Magnum video,love them both and actually heading there now lol. You know despite the negatives you mention in the other video I just cant get past the price you can get these for when compared to an Indian chieftain, Challenger or an HD Streetglide. In Canada we are looking at $10-15K at least plus taxes! Used 2016 Streetglides with the 103 are up around $23-25K even the ones with the 107 are more!!! My Victory hammer is a beautiful bike and I think the X1 Magnum would alleviate the gripes I have with that bike, mainly the complete lack of storage and zero wind protection while still having the great look and relaxed riding position my bike has. I know you don't like the Victory low end torque but that motor really opens up once you get going, especially on the light steel frame bikes like my hammer. Haven't noticed a video in a while hopefully everything is going ok.
It took me a few minutes to figure out what the dash looked like but it did come to me, Wall-E the robot from the movie. That face. Sorry, I'm sure it's a sweet ride. Peace
I’ve had 3 Harleys. Two Road Kings and one Electra Glide. Bought a 2016 Victory Cross Country Tour because I wanted something different. Did the research and decided this is the bike I want. I mean I am disappointed in Polaris decision to discontinue the Vic but not disappointed than I made the purchase. My HD buddy’s call my machine the “space ship” b/c of its massive size. LOL
Me too me toooo,,,, pick me pick me I own a harley but have never been like everyone else. It’s smooth and the seat sure felt good for my two day ride. It’s all about what fits you
I had a very different experience with MOMs, I guess they must be a fan of your channel because I didn't see any of the support that you mentioned and I don't think I could bring myself to ever go back there. However it could be that I bought a used bike instead of a new one.
I actually found your channel awhile back when I was looking at cross country's. You had one as a loaner while you were getting some work done on your Chieftain. I believe the handlebars. Anyways, I remember in that video you didn't seem to really like the cross country.
It's your money ev so you don't have to justify it. I totally get it. I bought my 2005 thunderbird in incagold for the same reason. Bucket list. Same with my purple challenger RT. So I totally get it. However, never heard you make that hitting a bump sound like that since you traded the judge.
I rode a few victories and liked them but with a dealership no where near me I shied away. I am not a me too type either as I have a V4 Yamaha in my garage but also own a Harley Electra glide ultra M8 which fit me and is comfortable to me and my wife. Both of my bikes serve their purpose for me but if I had more room and money I might get a victory just to say I have had one
Nice video I like the way you talk you talk the truth and I agree with you I do not know a Harley Davison I own a Harley Davidson fat Bob S114 before that I had a street glides Before that I had an electric glide in one day me and my wife went to Harley had nothing to do and I fell in love with this fat Bob because I fit right on it I’m 60 years old I know this is a young guy’s bike but it fit me so well and it was just something about that bike that I really liked was much lighter can handle yes it is a high-performance bike but I didn’t buy it for that reason I bought it because it was comfortable and it fit me but I agree with you you don’t have to own a Harley I also was looking at the triumph rocket three it doesn’t have to be a Harley I agree with you when I have it’s nice to hear somebody say it but a lot of people I want to say 90% of the people that Let me tell you this off the record Harley Davidson’s are nice I like them I bought the fat Bob and I love it like I said I love Harley Davidson but I could say it Harley Davison people suck do you think who they are in Monday morning they’re going to be you want fries with that just too much bullshit with the leather and the names in the kit right here too many fucking rules that they made up you have a look at somebody at a Harley dealer they all look like they want to fight well anyway nice video and it’s nice to hear somebody say it
Hello, I really wanted a Victory Cross Country. I just could not find one in my price range. I ended up with a 2002 Ultra Classic. But the Victory was my top choice.
Hey Night, I'm looking at one to go next to my vegas. You're a similar height to me,how do you find the buffeting on the standard screen compared to the new one?
Same can be said about those that by victory..oh I don't want Harley..cause everyone rides Harley..I want to be different..yet your not cause others ride victory..so tired of vic heads talking crap about why people ride Harley..not only do I like my Harley for all the reason stated. But it's part of Harley Davidson long history. Harley struggled to get to the iconic reputation they have . Polaris ditched victory cause they didn't sell good enough. Plus they are all the same..tear drop design..
Indians are awesome bikes, but the Vic Cross Serie will remain the King and the Queen of the modern custom baggers.. Only who owns one of them knows it... I'll keep mine 'till the wheels fall down.. Therefore, I don't care anything about resale value, problem other riders are so concerning about. ...I already saved a lot of money not having to trade in her and with the really low cost of maintainence...
It's a tuner. It allows you (or your mechanic) to upload or a create a fuel/air mix map for better performance. Important to do if you add an air intake and exhaust, for example.
Hmm, that bike must have been lowered, be careful on the corners...you are going to lose some finish (I bet wont be long that you have to buy something with suspension once again)
And then, when you show the Indian, the little teaser the garage door opening up the lights flashing come on man come on man come on man keep them videos coming
Shit I have a Harley limited, and all my other Harley friends bust my balls. It is what it is, don't care what you ride if I had more money I would have a CBR 900 also.
Indians are better than HD but screw HD and whatever on Moms South. Watch your shit. . : ) Ofcourse Victory Magnum and esp the 106 is a superior motor and bike. Wind management with the JTD lowers ( Forged Bars ) will match the Testing tech done for XC Touring models. You should be more satisfied than than the street guide solution.
HARLEY???THEIR small cc bikes are rattler junk and their entry level BIG TWINs are OVERPRICED 19K OTD for a stock 2018 Softail Slim no a.b.s., no traction control, no power modes, single disk front brakes, 3 fluid oil change maintenance, heat traps, etc...etc... ???? ya alright buddy, you keep your clique culture and you can keep on giving away your money to your price gouging dealers... Harley closed a plant here and now building one in ASIA,,,, I could care less if HARLEY fail in the distant future as well, still plenty of Bike Manufacturers out there!!! As long as someone is making stuff on two wheels... I'm set, all good here, nothing to see move along!!!
chuck koscinski you are pointless it is the same company... Stay in your clique mentality and be a Harley fanboy forever, hey you talk about money cause the OP could not afford it.. Then I suggest that you go to Harley and give them more of your money and be happy instead of harrasing the Victory owner in this post...
