2004 Victory Vegas Touring Bike reviews

I have owned a bike from each manufacturer over my years of riding and none come close to the dependability, smoothness of ride and all around great looks of this machine. Polaris has hit the nail on the head with these bikes as everyone wants to know where to get one up here in Canada. They are starting to take off big time up here. I own a Harley Electra Glide also and am wanting to trade it in for a cross country this year. I am keeping my 2004 Vegas. Way to go Polaris they are simply Perfection. Show less

Been riding for 30+ years. Owned all makes, Jap and American and this is the best bike I've ever ridden! Also owned a 99 Vic 92C. I just read a review of the cross roads/country and can't wait to test ride one! I'm counting my pennies already! I also talked my best friend into buying a Kingpin!! Show less

This bike is 5 yearts old and I still get continuous compliments about how good the bike looks. And it's just as reliable too! I leave all my Harley buddies in the dust! Show less

When I was ready to buy a motorcycle I was dead set on buying a Harley. That is until a buddy asked me about a Victory. I asked him, "What's a Victory?". Needless to say when I took the first test drive I knew a Victory was the only motorcycle I would buy. It won hands down to any Harley I had tested or ridden. I won't but any other motorcycle. Five years later I still love the motorcycle and look foreward to every ride I get with it. Show less

This bike has totally surprised me. I have not had one problem. This bike turns heads everywhere. My family all rides Harleys and it is so fun knowing that these Victorys can out run all of them. If you're looking for a fast, custom looking bike, these Victorys are for you. Even after turning over 16000 miles, it runs just as good as the day I picked it up. Victory rider for life. Show less

As far as my 04 Vegas, where else can you get a factory custom motorcycle for less then 20,000? Think about it - everything standard on a Vegas is an expensive option at Harley or on a metric (custom rims, forward controls, and let's not forget the frenched tailight). Show less

Because this is my first bike ever, a years worth of research on cruiser's went into this decision. It finally came down to the Yamaha Roadstar and the Victory Vegas. Since then I ride everyday thanks to the weather. Minimal vibration, awesome handling, custom styling, unbeatable pricing, and a powerful v-twin. Few upgrades warranted so you're spending more on the bike and less on accessories (e.g. if you're bike gets stolen, you're less likely to lose your money on the extras). The '04 seat is the only discomfort. Everybody I work with loves it and one even bought the 8-ball after his Yamaha Roadstar Warrior was stolen. He told me the Victory was definitely the better bike.

I ride a lot. I got this as my first v-twin. 10 miles on the odo when I got it. Since then, I have added 7500. The only problem that I can complain about is the fuel system, when the low fuel light comes on, you only got about 10-15 miles to get gas. I do get between 130-140 miles per tank. The bike is a blast to ride. Everybody loves the curves of the tank. The seat is comfortable for long rides. The forward pegs let you stretch your legs out. Great bike. Great price. Make the Harley boys jealous by having a bike that will start. Show less

This was my first bike in 20 years and I had been looking at Victory for 4 years before I finally made the plunge. I ride Polaris snowmobiles and ATV's and they have been great also. I thought anyone with credit can buy a Harley and join the crowd. My Vegas is the centre of attention wherever we stop. Show less

The truth is the Vegas is a bike that I want to take out as much as possible. It's exciting, has the power and hugs the road, much to my surprise. Owned HD, Honda, and Suzuki, and none where as satisfying as the Vegas. And you will be proud to get all these compliments and thumbs ups. I bought it this spring and put 7,500 km on it; never done so many km before. Try it, you'll love it. Show less
