Victory Cross Country Tour reviews

This bike has been absolutely amazing in every single way. It's absolutely bulletproof mechanically. It is absolutely the most comfortable and stable bike I've ridden. It has everything you could ever want in a cool looking bagger. Victory had it all figured out with the Magnum, it's too bad they went out of business. I have many Harley friends and there's no comparison between a Victory and a Harley, sorry Harley lover's but it's true. I ran into a Harley owner on a trip in 2021 and he had a brand new Harley Street Glide CVO. I ran into him at the ice machine at the motel and he asked if that was my Victory Magnum out front and I said yes. So he informs me that he had a 2014 Victory Cross Country (same as a Magnum really) and now he had the brand new CVO. He seriously hated his new Harley and told me he wished Victory never went out of business because he would take his old Cross Country in a heartbeat over the CVO. He said the CVO vibrated, it wandered all over the road and he said he could ride his Victory ALL day long at 90 mph with one hand on his leg because that's how stable and balanced those bikes are. Just amazing motorcycles and the Magnum's are great bikes!!! I would recommend a Victory to anyone. And there's plenty of factory parts still around if needed and the aftermarket has everything you could want for one. Show less

I completed an Iron Butt ride on it and 2 weeks later went from Nashville, Tennessee to Green Bay Wisconsin. I greatly enjoyed that bike and the only reason I sold it was a badly damaged left hand. It took me 3 years before I could depress a clutch lever. I wasn't sure if I would ever be able to ride again. I also sold my 2002Moto Guzzi V11 Lemans sport bike. Show less

I love this motorcycle it a 2011 victory Crossroads- has lots of good features like heated seats heated hand grips LED head lamp- fog lights and more- was recently tuned up- I added two new blue tooth speakers- front and rear tires have around 700 miles on them. Show less

Great bike, I have owned many types of cruisers, and this bike has the lowest center, gravity and best turning rate is also cruising down the highway. It cuts right through the wind and is very steady, I have not had any mechanical issues with the bike it looks good it’s reliable and it’s easy to maintain. Show less

My name is Anthony Vegas. I’m a retired Officer. I’ve been retired for a while now and would love to tell you about my bike. It’s a 2016 Victory Cross Country Touring. When I bought the bike it was as actually in an Indian Motorcycle dealership. I’d never really heard much about Victory bikes . I’ve personally owned nearly every brand of bike over the course of the last 50 or so years. My last bike was a Harley Road Glide. Beautiful bike, but the ride was brutally rough, especially if you road any real distance. I purchased my 2016 Victory in 2017. I made a lot of cosmetic changes to my bike, but I can tell you as an experienced rider, it’s amazing. It’s like a combination between a Harley and BMW. Incredible ride. It’s smooth and responsive for such a large bike! I’ve heard people say, who’s going to work on my bike since Victory closed, well I’ve taken my bike to a Polaris dealer and they had no problem. The bike is so easy to dress up and it looks amazing from all angles Show less

I had a Victory Vision before so was already convinced it was a good brand. This Cross Roads, however, being some 130 pounds lighter than the Vision, is much easier to get off the kickstand and much easier to handle in a parking lot. Having the same seat and floorboards it is just as comfortable although the lack of a fairing does mean more wind buffeting. All in all, I'm quite happy with this Cross Roads and especially so since it's equipped almost exactly like a 2018 Harley Heritage Softail I tried but cost $12,000 less. Show less

This bike IS exceptional for an American piece. I have been on a Harley, predominantly Honda, Suzuki and BMW my whole life from sport to cuiser. So you have to get the mind set 1st of what CLASS of bike we are dealing with. Don't forget that because this does not match up with my Hayabusa or even a Goldwing. This bike stays on course as a true motorcycle with massive Goldwing benefits without losing the classic look and rough edge of a Harley. The Vic X lands somewhere between the Dyna Glide and Goldwing in that class of bike.Sometimes less is more-Some of my comments about the Vic are purely on the dealer as you will read. Had a few hiccups out of the gate-no air in shock, poor fuel caused a idle surge, and belt chirp in 150 miles over 3 1/2 belt play cold. So this lands on dealer prep and go. Was not happy about how we came out of the gate with a new bike. Shake downs are over and the bike is awesome overall. Look forward to years of comfort riding. Show less

I bought a 2011 X-Country. I had it for three years and loved it for long hauls out in eastern Canada and into northern Michigan. It's very comfortable and performed very well. It's very reliable and powerful! I loved it. I thought it was time to hang up the helmet! I sold it last spring and was so lost without it - a big mistake!! I'm picking up my 2012 X-Country Thursday. It's beautiful and has more accessories than my 2011. I can't wait to see the Grand Canyon with this one!! This might just be the last bike I ever own. that's up to Victory!!!! 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've had the Kawasaki Vulcan 2000, a Gold Wing, a Vegas, a Jackpot and a few others. The Victory's have always been the best and the most solid. But when I got my 2010 Cross Country, it was game on! The power, the handling, the braking, the storage, the comfort (not to mention the 45-50 mpgs.) - I could ask for nothing more. It's kind of like the car brand Saturn used to say: "If you don't own one, you wouldn't understand." Show less
