This is one of the nicest bikes I've ever ridden. Smooth and powerful. Easy steering and even balance. Show less

I have been riding for 45 years. I've ridden about everything and have a passion for motorcycling. I've owned more bikes than I care to share. I became a die-hard Harley guy in 2004 but in 2008 added a King Pin Tour to the garage. I loved it but sold it in 2012 and stuck with my Harley's, three of them. I sold my 2012 Electra Glide because it was too big for me. I went in to my Victory dealer and tried out a Cross Country. I was sold and owned it and it truly is the most comfortable bike I've ever owned. Is it perfect, no, but as close to it as anything I've ever ridden. I can ride it 500 miles on a weekend and not be the least bit uncomfortable. The gas gauge is annoying as it is not accurate at low fuel but I can live with that. I wish the handlebar controls were light at night, but that is about all the complaining I have. This may be my last touring bike. Show less

I bought this machine brand new in June, 2012. Since then I have put 12k miles on it. I absolutely love this bike. The handling, ride and comfort have far exceeded my expectations. As a year round rider I couldn't have picked a better bike. Guaranteed - my next bike will be a Victory! Show less

I have had this bike for three months and have put on over 3,500 miles on her. This bike is amazing and a real head turner!! Often referred to as a Spaceship, it gets the attention. The standard features and the storage are amazing for a stock bike. Gas mileage is awesome, handling is amazing and the rider/passenger comfort is the best!! I have many ladies asking for a ride. I added the XM radio and am very pleased with the quality and ease of use. The design of the bike, the two power ports, WOW...I could go on and on! It is worth every penny! Show less

Potential Victory Owners, I bought my Victory in July of 2011. I could not be more happy. My friends and I rode our motorcycles from South Carolina to New Orleans to Texas and back. There was four Harley Riders and one Victory, three Street Glides, one Road King and one Cross Country. My Victory motorcycle lived up to its name. In all fairness, the Harley's looked and sounded real good. But, I got better gas mileage and had more room on my bike for souvenirs in my side bags. The only upgrade on my bike is the Victory passenger backrest and a cupholder accessory. The power is incredible for this size bike. I passed cars and Harleys with ease traveling on I20. Downshifting to pass a vehicle is not necessary. There is plenty of power in six gear. As mentioned in other reviews, there is a sweet spot in 4th gear when cruising around town. You feel like you can do anything in fourth gear. (Buy a Victory you will see). Sitting on my Victory seat for 14 hours minus gas stops, no problem. This is the most comfortable stock seat I've sat on in a motorcycle. The long floor boards made it easy to adjust your legs for even more comfortability. My Street Gliding friends all purchased Highway Pegs or they would likely be cramped. My Victory was vibration free at 85 mph. Yes, the engine purred like a Honda engine at speed. (In my opinion, Honda makes the best engines). The Cross Country was extremely stable at high speeds. Traveling through stretches of rainy highway, the stock tires were satisfactory. On the highway and traveling only a couple of hundred miles between refueling, you will do some hard braking from time to time. No problem on the Cross Country. Every aspect of riding is confidence inspiring. The stereo/radio system sounds very clear at 70+ miles per hour. My black Cross Country stuck out easily amongst my group of grey and orange, and red Harley-Davidson owners. I got equal or more attention on my bike than the Harleys. Until I purchase Satellite radio, it's no fun searching for radio stations from state to state. All the Harley owners, with the exception of the Road Kinger, had a standard CD player on their bike. For $16,400 out the door price for a new bike, I can not complain. Instead, I am insane in love with my Victory. Show less

It's a great bike, I love it. It has lots of power. I had a lot of people ask about it, it is a real looker. It has smooth acceleration. I'm really enjoying this bike. The exhaust sounds much better after 5000 km. Show less

The bike was incredible from the moment I saw it. I tried to convince myself to buy the base model - but the Ness spoke to me. I came home with it and my wife was not mad, just told me my dinner would be cold, we were going riding. 1300 miles in 2 weeks and I enjoy it more each day. Show less

I bought my 2011 Cross Roads in late March, 2012 and have put over 5,000 miles on it in the last three months. I ride it to and from work through the Provo Canyon here in Utah and enjoy the ride every day. I have had no problems with the bike. It runs great and handles awesome. I would recommend this bike to anyone. Just wanted to add that the other day I was sitting behind a guy on a Harley at a stop light and after watching him get vibrated to death, I sure was glad I was on a Victory. Show less

This is my 4th Victory and they were all great. I love the way they handle and they are so well balanced. It has acceleration when you need it and is almost maintanence free. When I go to a dealer to have something work on it is not the high dollar like another brand where you continue to pay for a name. The only thing I would like to have is an auxilary hookup on fairing to plug into (standard). I have a 2011 Cross Country and love it. Now you came out with the 2012s and made them better. I don't how you do it but keep doing it. Show less
