Can’t see much in the video. They need to do away with the “swoopy”, Arlen Ness look. Their touring bikes are not attractive to most people. Hopefully the Indian line will be attractive to the people who still like the “traditional” look.
Indian Motorcycle has nothing to do with Victory Motorcycle other than same corporate ownership…although mission accomplished Polaris. Buying Indian has worked for Victory riders…instant street cred…
Happy birthday Victory. For those of you hoping for more traditional styling, I think that’s why Polaris bought Indian. I think from Victory you’re going to see them free’d up to get further away from “traditional”. Which I’m looking forward too. Nothing wrong with it, but we already have that, don’t need more.
I have to disagree with people that want a more “traditional” styled Vic. Those same people would then complain that the Vic’s are trying to look like Harley’s. Victory is all about modern engineering and technology. It makes sense that their designs reflect that. And as for the Ness connection, Cory Ness has been quoted as saying “if you look at our bikes, one thing you can say is they all have smooth, flowing lines… if you look at Victory bikes, you can say the same thing, so it’s a good relationship…” What’s wrong with that? Any complaints by HD riders about Vic’s must be from folks who haven’t ridden a Victory yet, because man, they are superior motorcycles.
Glad that they changed it. This one is more fitting with their bikes more modern/progressive edge.
Diggin it, looking forward to the rest of the unveiling…
It would be cool if Victory made a key chain mini logo and sent it out to all register Victory riders

Richard is right Move away from the Ness look and get more trditional. They are motorcycles not rocket ships or stealth airplanes!
I’ve almost bought one…twice….just a notch too “modern” looking for my tastes. Hoping this update fits the bill
I like it, it’s so nice to see American workers making things.
Happy 4th of July
Victory is coming moving forward. Let’s hope along with better Indian designs they will be the much needed competition for the MoCo.

The Victory doesn’t have a attitude but when Hells Angel icon Sonny Barger mounts his Victory then you got attitude !
