So far, she's been lovely...

 

Welcome and EXACT same instance! Went to look at another HD, and my buddy said to get into his shop! Rode it home that day! Never even made it to the floor! Sits right next to my first HD...also a bagger from me as a much younger man, 22 years ago! Had many others, before and after! But, kept my first HD! Shes seen Dynas, Racebikes, many quads and now my YXZ! But these two will remain...until my college kids have grown into responsible home owners...and will be the coolest girls on baggers!
Congrats and SHE IS A BEAUTY!

 

Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen;

I have wanted a Victory for some years now, and I just never really got one. I've had 30-40 motorcycles throughout my life. Victory has been the one that eluded me.

Well, the other day I was on Craigslist, saw this bike at my local HD dealership. The bike was perfect, the price was right. I went there, started her up, and immediately went to the bank.

Next thing I know, I was riding home with my 2016 Magnum, 4400 miles. So, far the only think I had a problem with is the exhaust scrapping on hard corners. I read through these pages and realized I can add air in the rear shock, and it raised my back up about 2 inches. No more scrapie scrapie...

Anyways, guys and gals, please let me know what you think.

The bike looks perfect, congrats!

 

Congrats ! You're going to love it ! Looks great !

 

Congrats on the new ride. Enjoy!

 

sweet lookin ride ! that color is off the charts and I love that front wheel !!!I haven't seen anything in my area that quite resembles it,,, head turner for sure . nice score

 

welcome to the Vog:hat1: Nice lookin ride love the color

 

For some reason each time you reach a milestone on the mileage it seems to pick up a little more pep, I have 10,000 on mine very happy with the performance and another member stated when I reach 20,000 miles it wakes up again, I should reach that milestone around August... I hope !

 

Thanks for all the responses, guys. I've taken her out a few times now, put a few hundred miles now.

The more I ride, the better it feels.

The Vance and Hines exhaust is incredible. One of the best sounding bikes I've heard (totally unbiased).

I am looking to get some baby ape hangers (just to raise the bars a little, not too much), and that's about it.

I kinda think she's perfect the way she is..

Again, thanks for the nice friendly comments, Victory Fam. Keep'em shiny side up!!!

 

beautiful ride!

 

Congrats on the ride. She looks clean and nice.

 

The cross bikes are awesome!! Have fun making it your own

 

Congrats! But it looks like someone stole your Forged roll bars painted to match, and all the subtle black pinstriping you had done to make it perfect,,,,,,,,,

 

You're obviously a man of high intelligence with impeccable taste.

 

Bonjour and welcome from Cognac in France. Congratulations on your new purchase, that is a lovely looking bike. I did the same thing with my bike, found her at my local Harley dealer. The guy did his best to sell me a Hog but I rolled out of the shop on the Cross-Country, no regrets.
Ride safe.

 

Welcome aboard! Congrats on the new X1!

 

Very nice. You chose a nice one looks like.

 

Welcome and congratulations for getting one of the most sought after Vics there are. You chose very well, very well indeed.

 

Not just a Magnum.... An X1 Stealth !

 

Love those magnums....so much I own one to

 

Welcome and congratulations. That's one of my favorites, color and all!

 

Sweet! Great color too.

 

Congrats on the Magnum! Let the mods begin!

 

Nice looking' ride... They ride and handle better with some air in the shock, huh?
