Yep sucks that the world is led by the piper and the sheep that live in it will never know a great thing other than what they were programmed to know.
People in general ............... well let's put it this way can be easily misled because of popularity.

Hey! I don't need a bike that rides well, or is comfortable with lots of room to move around. And I DON'T need to be able to manuever it well, or lean it over very far at all. And power is only important in first gear as I impress the hell out of everybody while tearing out of the parking lot.

What I need is a bike that makes me look cool, like I am some sort of 1950's bad boy, with the skinny jeans and the cool leather jacket. And I want to pay at least as much for this bike as I paid for my car. Otherwise how can I possibly gloat about how much money I can afford to throw around.

 

Sarcasm at its best!!!

 

Well, thank you. I do my best.

 

Hell, I'm getting slow in my old age. I just realized what the title of this thread was....Victory Dealers Getting The Shaft............Shouldn't that be Belt??

Gee Bro I guess you don't get it. I was not referring to satisfaction of Victory owners. Sure people who bought them for the most part seemed to like them to some extent. It was more a reference to why Victory really never made it. Cant argue they did...because they are gone.

You're a real Military or commercial pilot?

 

Guess it was the 80% that would buy again that got my attention.

Currently, a Med-Evac pilot and sometimes the Crew will ask me the same question about being real...

 

I say this with no disrespect for Native Americans nor do I belittle their plight, but out of curiosity, what would happen if Native Americans launched a class action lawsuit against Polaris to have the name and all likenesses/emblems of Natives Americans removed from Polaris Motorcycles? Is that possible? Would that affect Polaris stock?

 

That's ridiculous native Americans don't care about such things. Those stupid complaints are started by white liberal morons. That have no clue.

 

Around here they prefer to be called aboriginal. Indians are from India.

 

Omg

 

You been talking to my wife??

 

Agree but just can't jump on board the HD train. Anything but.

Ok ok.. I just threw that out.. Didn't mean to cause any ruckus between the riders.. I was trying to throw shade on Polaris.

 

Victory Motorcycles' demise puts Dealer protections to the test | Dealernews

Thats a real sweet looking Magnum great job I think if I ever need a mod coach I will hire you.... as long as you are willing to pay for the parts I'll pay for your knowledge ...love that look

 

Thanks. I think it would be cheaper for me if I gave a few pointers for free and let you buy the parts tho.

 

I was at my local dealer today and they actually think eventually they will bring victory back when the dust from indian settles

 

Won't hold my breath.
Even if they do I would have a hard time giving them my money unless they fired management & put it in the hands of actual riders.

That's exactly what it would take for me.

Well, I have certainly lived long enough to have learned "never to say Never"........but..........:rofl3:

What dealer would ever trust them again?

Seriously, take a look at the top Victory dealerships. First two that come to mind are Stroker's in Texas and Randy's in Illinois. Neither one of them are taking an Indian license. I'm sure there are plenty of others besides them that told Polaris to take that license and stick it up their ass.

 

Unfortunately I believe you're right. Business owners tend to be pretty smart folks. They're not keen on getting screwed multiple times.

 

Hear that a lot

Followed by awesome lines and look how the fenders and tank blend into the look. Is it fast?

 

I that Golden Gate bridge for sale again?? Damn, I really wanted to get in on that deal!!

 

I'm doing a test ride on it we're in price negotiation as we speak you want a piece ?

 

I'll leave the guys alone on here. It's the pro's I get po'ed @. They should know better and they have machines that do grammar and spell check for them. This website sucks with all the words it guesses for you. I think some of us just say "chuck it" and move on. The word in green is not the word I typed for example. The word I used was much more colorful!

 

CHUCK........Like this?

If you type the words out, it gets censored by the software, however, it is ok to post pictures of most of those words in the appropriate thread. :icon_thumleft:
