Welcome from Oregon. Also a pro and a con, people will constantly ask "what is that" with eyes of wonder, then will respond "never heard of it" or "never seen one" when you reply "Victory". I'm at the point where I now say "it's a motorcycle" and they'll shut up. Or if they ask what kind of motorcycle, I respond "V-Twin". They either think it's a brand and say "OK" or realize I'm a dick and just walk away. They are head-turners and yours is a great color. You will be outpaced by all-black Victories, (It's been rumored they go faster) but you should do well against HD.
