VICTORY seems to be missing???

    I love my Honda Rebel 450, she has 2 wheels that go round and round when I get on the throttle, and guys even come over to check her out when she's parked within a line of other bikes. She'll be a classic soon, if she's not one now.
    Welcome to Cyclefish and I hope you enjoy the family that has grown here. I know I have since I've joined. I have been made to feel welcome and accepted, even though I am a newbie to being a motorcyclist on my own bike and not just riding bitch.

    Hell, I don't even ride a Harley. The wife does.

    I like the two wheel mentality......and if I came off any other way I blame it on the alcohol

    I looked and priced a Victory and compaired (relitivly) to simmiler engine out put from all different brands. And also what I can afford for now. For what I like Victory Vagas and H-D Custom 1200 Sporster. Those are because I dont have the know how to build my own bike.... yet.

    More Victory folks around here than you might think.   Doesn't matter what you ride as long as you ride.

    Here is my take on what a Vic should look like

    An example of a structure that would be more appropriate to an brand agnostic site would be:

    American Motorcycles
    Harley-Davidson
    Victory
    Ridley
    Indian
    Boss-Hoss
    Excelsior-Henderson
    Customs
     
    Metric Cruiser Motorcycles
    Honda
    BMW
    Suzuki
    Yamaha (Star)
    Kawasaki
    Triumph
    Other

    Metric Sport Motorcycles
    Honda
    BMW
    Suzuki
    Yamaha
    Kawasaki
    Ducati
    Triumph
    Other

    Ok, now that I've made a buch of friends with my first post I'm going to peruse the rest of this new site to see just how much trouble I can get into.....


    I don't see Bridgestone, Norton or Motoguzzi  
    The first bike I ever rode on was a Norton (1965), first bike I ever owned was a Bridgestone (1968) Motoguzzi  , well they are just plain ugly  


    and....... we are certainly not bored with the winter now are we  LOL

    Got me all nostalgic - While you are at it mention BSA too. First time I rode was when I "borrowed" a distant cousin's GoldStar. About my most fun ride was a Lightning  - Sadly Bridgestone, Norton & BSA are no more. I miss them, well not Bridgestone but the Limey ones.

    Motoguzzi? - If anybody has one I will take it off their hands

    Look Brother, I speak straight, so take it for what its worth, don't apologize for "stirring it up", when thats what you apparently meant to do. Do you see folks on this site whinning and bitchin...If your truely happy with your Victory, whats your issue? Its not about the motorcycle you ride, its about the one who rides the motorcycle...I think you showed yourself Bu-Bu and not in a positive light. Lighten up...all things don't have to be a battle...

    I'm bored w/ big, 'V"-Twins - My Kawa 400 was really efficient & the Triumph looks interesting - If somebody wants to come up w/ a new scooter how about a Speed Triple??

    ... Well, they came up rather late in this discussion, but my AΩ m/c VicePres is a Moto-Guzzi fan from way back --- I think he currently has 4 or so in his garage, and is always looking for more... My only real qualms about them is a rather scarce dealer network and quite a few turn-overs @ pasta hq over the years... We're fortunate to be in an area where there are 4 or 5 dealers in a 100-mile radius, and customer service has been exceptional... Kyle rode Harley for a lot of years, till he had a mild stroke --- the Harley was just too heavy for him to handle after that w/o a side-car... His long-time canine riding partner passed away, and just looking at that empty custom side-car brought him to tears too often... The 'Guzzi has been perfect for his recovery and enjoyment of the road @ an affordable price tag...

    I noticed that they added an American Cruiser section in the garage here, but no posts! Guess it was more just something to complain about than actually needed at the time.
