    Here is an interesting project that I've wanted to tackle for a while now: putting older stock Victory cams into a newer 2008 106". The cams that Victory used in their 2002-2005 92" bikes have been known for a long time as a very well designed cam, and The Vic Shop has been using them as a...

    We were working on a couple of engines this week, one of them was this 2009 100" Kingpin: https://www.thevog.net/threads/2009-100-cu-inch-stage-2.24733/ and another was a 2007 engine where the original 102mm crank was replaced with a 108mm stroker crank. It got me thinking about rod length...

    Our customer has been working on this bike for years. It's gone through several different engines and transmissions over the years. This isn't even the first time it's been on our dyno. This is it's latest configuration here. He brought it up to check the tune he'd made on the street with his...

    It feels so weird to have three runable bikes in my stable. It's hard to find time to keep the fuel flowing through them all. How freakin' lucky am I to have these three at my disposal! :) Also, can you tell what my favorite bike color is? 116" Vision. 133hp, 133 tq. It has it all. Power...

    Bored with the same old motorcycle mods you've had too long? Feel like you need a little more pep? Ask your Engine Builder if forced induction is right for you!

    We're pleased to announce that, through a wonderful series of events, The Vic Shop is going to team up with the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association "Warrior Wheels" Project: Facebook:Warrior Wheels Project We're working specifically with the Nevada Chapter (Home) to fix up this Victory...

    I copied/pasted from my FB page: I get a lot of e-mails and phone calls that go something like: " Can you find me XYZ stock part for my bike? My dealer can't find it, or they can't have it for 3 weeks" or some other malarkey. So here is how you get around that. Follow along as we order a brake...
  10. Victory Cross Country
    .....on a Cross Country. When the bikes first came out and I saw the drilled and tapped holes on the inner side of the forged bars - my mind starts racing. Twin nitrous bottles baby! Finally found a like minded soul that would let me pull it off. Here is one side of the customers bike:
  11. Tech Q&A
    We were able to play around with the "Quiet Insert" for the Vance and Hines slip-on Cross Bike exhaust recently. I was doubtful, but I'll be damned if the bike didn't have a much mellower tone AND picked up both low end torque and high end power too! Highly recommended! This was a Cross bike...

    Here is a picture of the last 4 stock pistons we've removed recently from stock motored bikes. What you see is that the skirt is ruined on all four pistons. Not pictured are the ruined cylinders too. A proper warm up procedure is very important to prevent this type of damage. Length of a...

    Attention cold weather Victory riders! Avoid this little accident. When the ambient temps drop below 45 degrees F your cold Victory can backfire and lock up the starter sprag clutch when you try to start it. It's a pretty simple operation to free it or replace it, but the bike would have to be...

    It's kind a daily thing here at The Vic Shop, but here is another great running Cross bike. Bike came in with a dealer installed Tri-Oval kit, no other mods (red lines). So we gave it the typical aftermarket stage1 kit which is: Lloydz air filter, Lloydz timing wheel, a Power Commander 5, and a...

    Announcing The Vic Shop's 5th annual Hog Roast on May 10th. Come out and see the shop and have lunch on us! We're expecting another huge crowd of riders from all over the Midwest this year, and we're looking forward to seeing you too!
  16. Tech Q&A
    Everyone always asks - so hopefully this will help. This is just the tip of the iceberg on tuning a bike with a timing wheel, much of it you'll have to leave up to a professional tuner, especially when you add a Power Commander. But, if you want the benefits and you don't have a professonal...

    Greg, afriend of mine, has been working on this Vegas for many years. The last three years on building this turbo project. It's gone through several itenerations before this, but he brought it up today to try out a new plenum he fabbed up. Yep, honest to goodness 200 horsepower, and 190 torque...

    So lookie what showed up today! The supercharger for my Sport Cruiser project! So yes, that is a 2010 106" 6 speed motor in my 2000 Sport Cruiser, and yes that is Lloydz new Procharger Supercharger in my hands. I told him to gear it down for me a bit so it's "only" going to be making 150hp or...

    This is a 2013 Cross Country. I talked the owner out of the Victory stage1. Why? Because an aftermarket stage1 is SO MUCH BETTER! Here is the dyno graph, I'm only showing Torque for clarity. The Blue lines are "as delivered" 2013 XC, stone stock. The Green line shows a typical Victory Stage1...
