Buying a Victory
So I don't like the way the new 1500cc Triumph cruiser is, but I still want another bike for longer distance rides with the wife. I'm a small dude at 5'7 150lbs so the Rocket III is a bit much for me. If not for my size I'd be on the RIII.
I refuse to be another Harley clone, yet I'd like to stay in the V twin American class so I'm looking at Victory motorcycles
I test rode a 2007 Hammer S and except for the twice the power and fat rear tire it was much like my Speedmaster in feel. It has the same type of set up in my opinion.
Then again I'm looking at buying a bike to tour on so I'm looking at the Kingpin. I was stoked to see that there is an 8 Ball Kingpin this year. I like the blacked out look on a bike (hence me buying the Speedmaster in the first place).
So I guess I'd like some informed input on Victory bikes. If you do or have owned one then let me know what you think.
If you think I'm a brand traitor... the Harley forum is always open for you.
