Hmm... what to make of Victory these days, after their parent company re-introduced "Indian"? I know - let's re-image Victory as a manufacturer of "sport bikes". Project 156, their Pike's Peak effort, and their efforts in drag racing are all about that. It would be awesome if they seriously attacked that notion and went about it with a vengeance. With this "Octane", however, it looks like they chickened out. No more than an Indian Scout re-branded. If only they would go full "Eric Buell" mode and come out with the 156 platform for the street. Then we would have something. Until then, well, it appears they are doing their utmost to snatch defeat from the jaws of Victory...
