At least I don't think they can be accused of copying the style off of any other touring bike.

All I can say is that it's definately: different, unique, and it's "out there".
I don't think that Victory has to worry about any companies copying they're new bikes. |

Looks like they crossed a Victory King Pin with a BMW K1200LT. I kinda like it.

It does have that K1200LT look alright.
With the features mentioned, it is going to be interesting to see what price range they come in at.

How do the saddlebags open? the lid looks like it hinges near the bottom. It is hard to keep things from falling out, if the lid opens that far down.

I'd have to see one in person, but it looks good to me too.
Going to floorboards over those wanky toe-down BMW pegs is a huge improvement. There is a lot of BMW in there though.
I bet they sell the hell out of it. This will cost HD some bagger sales.
Good luck to Victory.

By George(!), I wonder if it uses Spacely Sprockets (and cogs)!? My earlier first impressions of it's previously released sketches weren't good. The more I see of it thus far (now), the more it doesn't look so bad to me.  Whenever the time comes with the stupid E.P.A. that I can no longer own and ride a Harley as I like.....well I'll just have to see who has what at that time.....All I can say...  |

I don't care for it. The front end looks like one of the Suzuki Bergman scooters. I generally like the Victory but not that one.

Just not into space age-looking bikes. If I were, I would probably like it.
