2013 Victory reviews

I purchased my 2013 Tour in Bardstown, KY. I picked it up Thursday, August 23rd and traded a 2009 Jackpot in on it. All I can say is outstanding, the best folks (Matt) that you could deal with. I rode it 350 miles in three days, 200 today with the wife on-board and it is the best ride I have even had. Tomorrow we will go at least 200 more. I recommend this bike and the dealership to anyone looking for the best ride possible. Show less

I test drove a Cross Country this year and couldn't believe I was riding a bike from the air-cooled V-Twin genre. Simply put, the bike was awesome. I couldn't wait to get home and find out if there was a dealer that would take my 2009 Road Glide in trade for a Cross Country. Well, I found a dealer with my first e-mail and made the deal over the phone. After four Harley's, I am convinced that Victory cares more about their customer's needs, especially with regards to comfort and ease of maintenance. On the Harley's, the first thing I had to do was start switching parts to make the bike fit me...but not any more! The Cross Country is perfect right out of the box, and better in so many other ways: More horsepower, more torque, lower center of gravity, more suspension travel, better cooling, more room for luggage, larger GVW limits, quieter shifting (no more CLUNK going from neutral to first!), a true overdrive (not just an extra gear) and five quarts of oil lubricating everything...no more filling, checking and changing of three reservoirs! Victory is trying to take on Goliath and it is obvious that they are beating them in many ways. If you have ever been bothered by Harley rolling out little dribs and drabs of 'performance and technology' like I have, I suggest you give Victory a look. I did and couldn't be happier! Show less

I upgraded from a Honda 750 RS. I am a big man and needed a big bike. This bike fits me well and carries a passenger and me effortlessly. The saddle is very comfortable. Passengers always complement their seating as well and often use the word smooth describing the ride. It is also nice every time I ride to receive complements my bike. For a big bike it is easy to turn and handles well on the curvy mountain roads in my area. I have never dragged a floor board. The low speed maneuvering is the only thing I have had trouble with, but after several practice sessions over the last month. I can carve 20 foot figure eights using counter weighting. When I started shopping for a new bike I intended to get a Harley. However I did not think the salesman was nice to me. Then my GF sent me a photo of the Hard-Ball. I went to the Victory dealership and was treated well and bought the Hard-Ball and could not be happier. Show less
