I thought about one, but the parts? What if Polaris kills the line?

Polaris has somehow managed to keep Victory alive for 15 years despite a very rocky economy.

I tend to think they're in it for the long haul.

Victory makes some bada$$ bikes, if I was in the market for a cruiser I would check them out.

If I were in the market for a cruiser, I would quit riding.
Useless machines. Rather be in the P car.
YMMV

I had a 1985 V-max, not sure how different the newer ones are but, any long corner and you really noticed the engine weight up front, sort of wiggles its way through turns. Also small gas tank, originally more of a drag bike - boulevard cruiser, was great at burnouts.

Ended up with a 1995 ZX1100, much nicer for long highway runs, better brakes and handling.
