This may Interest all the throttle heads here. Polaris will no longer be producing Victory motorcycles.

Yeah, when I saw this yesterday, I thought about how pissed I'd be if I just bought a Victory... reminds me of the pebble watches.

I'm assuming their sales must have been pretty bad. I know folk that have one and they like it.

I think a motorcycle is a little bit bigger deal than a pebble watch. lol

Other than a few owned by Western Oklahoma Chapter BACA members because the dealer had some connection there I've seen maybe 3 or 4 Victories on the road.

Oh yeah, of course. Just comparing the "congrats, something you just bought will no longer be supported" situation, since it happened so recently.

I've seen a few on the roads over the years since they hit the market, but over all, they're not a common sight in general. Kind of makes me wonder if it was actually planned after the new Indian's took hold.
The Canadian County Sheriff bought at least 2 Victory police dressers. They look pretty fancy.
