Opinion on the Victory Vision...

Viktory

Not my style but I have to give them credit for breaking away from the '50's only, two-tone pastel, fringy, grey-haired gasbag bikes that the other motorcycle company seems determined to build forever. If I wanted a relic from the fifties with 2 valves per cylinder, a carb that backfires, and leaks oil I would just buy a Fiat 600.

And what's wrong with the B-King; it looks like it would be a great garage mate to my '94 CB1000 since Honda is now too wimpy to build anything that aggressive. With CBR1000 cams, PCIII and 6-speed trans, my old CB has surprised a lot of squids.

 

I like it for more of the creature comforts but it is not too bad looking to me. When I see it in person I may have a more informed opinion.

 

Thought it was ugly when I saw it in magazine write-ups..
Saw it in person finally and it's not ugly....it's FUGLY!!!
Lots of interesting enginering built into her from what I've read,however.

 

There is no uglier bike EVER MADE!!!

 

ew... I just hope I never see one on the road.

 

I like it, at least they tried to move away from the status quo and design something new, instead of following Harley's lead and buildiing the same three bikes for like 100 years. It looks very avante garde. I don't know about the back end so much, but the rest of the bike is sweet. Definately not for me, I'm all sportbike! But has anyone seen the Can-Am Spyder(?Spider)? There's one cruising through my town daily, but I've yet to see it, been told by many a co-worker. The website pics look like a snowmobile with outriggers!

 

so big it needs two lanes to make a turn.

I saw one at Ephrata. it is HUGE.
I'm 5'10" and it looked taller.

it should have doors.

 

I saw a guy driving a Can-Am and it's pretty cool how quickly he can make turns. However, I just don't like how it looks and I'm way more impressed with the T-Rex:



Linky here: TREX - DRIVEN BY EVOLUTION

I saw the T-Rex in person as well and one word can only describe it: badass.
