I still root for them, cause they are American made. But I don't see em overcoming the HD craze. I still think HD is more for your buck. And they are priced about the same when you compare apples to apples. I've done a few of the vic builds on their site... and poof... same if not more $$
Gas you are right- Regardless of why you are right you hear the tranny and if the bike is not broken in you will also clearly hear the cam chains
The only point I will make about price is that Victory on average can be purchased 15 to 20 % below retail and in the case of the one I bought as a leftover a little better than 30% below retail. That is where I find the value.
