2000 Victory reviews

Bought a used '00 Vic w/1600 miles on it from a local bike dealer. He couldn't move it so I thought it was a good deal. I like the power, ride and especially the handling. Had a '76 Bonnevile until I bought this and for big bike - this feel almost as good on the twisties as the Bonnie. The only thing that bothers me is the EXCEPTIONAL mechanical NOISE. It has a knocking the local Vic dealer says is normal. I thought it was a rod knock - but he assured me it was normal so I bought it. Overall like the fact that it is an American product that in many way is better than a Harley. Show less

My Dad is a 57 yr old rider who loves all things American. He recently purchased a new, out of the box 2000 model Victory V92C. He stole it. It came with windshield, crash bars, back rest, saddle bags etc... so he was happy as a clam. However, the thing is slow. I guess I am used to Japanese bikes with lots of horsepower. Riding the Victory leaves you wanting more. It is a fun bike for what it is, but why not break the mold and make a bike with some horsepower right from the factory. Show less

I just picked up my 2000 V92SC I bought it with 5miles off the showroom floor. Since it is old stock only 1 yr warrenty. I love it lots of power, comfortable position, looks great. I have put 500 miles on in the first week. After day 2 I started scraping pegs, a little more clearence would be nice. I am considering changing the muffler but there are not many options. The fit and finish could be improved but for the price I paid i have one hell of a machine. Show less

After years of Harleys and many brand motorcycles, this year I purchased a 2000 v92c, I was totally amazed, this I will say is the best performing machine I have been on. There is no question that time was put into the making of this motorcycle, and once you truly ride one of these bikes to its fullest you will always be a victory fan. Next year I will most likly purchase a new model. Thanks Dan Show less

I happen to be one of the lucky ones who has both a Harley and a Victory. I don't feel loyal, or dis-loyal, to any brand. I just want a good ride. I purchased a new 2000 SC in early 2003. Last one available in Canada. I find it very enjoyable, very responsive and it provides a feeling of confidence when you ride. It is also built as solid as anything out there and definately well worth the cost. Having problems setting up the EFI correctly and there is not a lot of expertise in Canada yet. Wouldn't mind learning to do it myself for the future. Also there are not a lot of accessories available up here yet. Once you've owned a Harley you tend to love accessories!! Show less

I ride a 2001 DELUXE. I am very happy with my bike.I ride with pride. It has more power than you would ever need. I can ride from Atlanta to Daytona without losing the fillings in my teeth,or my kick stand.I like the fact that A Ness has gotten so involved with the VICTORY. I can't, for the life of me understand why any one would go out and spend 6 to 8 thousand over MSRP on that other American made V-TWIN Show less

I've had my Sportcruiser since May of 2001 and it's been an awesome machine. I've done some customizing on it myself to include painting, polishing, chrome, and billet accessories. My wife and I enjoy cruising on our SC and the bike performs and rides great. haven't met a HD rider yet that can hang with me in the twistees! Whenever I take my Sportcruiser out, it always gets most of the looks and interest. We've also had a blast taking our SC to Laughlin and Sturgis! Way to go Polaris! and Thanks for creating a Big American cruiser that is affordable, reliable, comfortable, and downright awesome! Show less

I currently have 12,000 miles on my Victory. Strong points: good quality beefy parts, good performance, handling, solid and stable. mine has turnouts: "great sound" & performance chip, which really increased midrange performance. Knocks: transmission: klunky, with missed shifts, also Polaris is so so regarding stock of add on items. Show less

I returned from Operation Enduring Freedom to find a V92C Special Edition waiting for me. I’ve experienced the Harley Dealer's smug, “you pay what I say attitude” ... I’m glad to see that Victory will take the wind out of their sails and customers from their show rooms. What an incredible bike!!!!! Show less
