Victory High-Ball reviews

I have to admit I was hesitant to ride this bike! I was sold on looks but unsure about the bars and steering. Based on the dealer's advice, I went once around the lot gained my confidence in about a minute and got out on the main drag. It's perfectly balanced, responsive, agile and powerful! I bought this bike that day! I got a fair trade value and a miltary discount...outstanding! Show less

I have this monster and love it. Everything Victory says it delivers! This bike's looks won me over. The ride is what kept me won over. I'm so glad I bought this and not a Harley. Show less

I have never regretted buying my beautiful 2006 Victory Vegas 8-Ball. I am most impressed with the value for the money. I am also impressed with the amount of torque no matter which of the gears you are shifting into. I have had to do little or no repairs to her (yes, she is a she and I have named her!) I do my own maintenance on her. I use synthetic oil and my dad makes me change it every year no matter how many miles I am able to put on her. She always gets the looks and I am always talking about her no matter where I am riding. It's a good thing I know so many of the specs about her. I would be comfortable selling these for a living I believe in them so much! I love bragging about it to my Harley owning friends. I can't help but tell them mine is faster, bigger, more reliable, more American made and I got WAY more bang for my buck! When my Harley friends take my bike for a ride, they can't help but say how awesome it rides and how smooth and comfortable it feels. My only complaint is the gas cap. But, only since I moved into California. California has those stupid, over-sized gas nozzles that the hinged cap interferes with. I have broke the gas cap off once (my only repair). Show less

I recently purchased the 2011 Vision 8-Ball this summer. I love it, it's very comfortable and has plenty of power. It's a nice looking bike and get lots of positive comments on it. The only negative I have heard is from folks that ride that other American-made bike. This is my fourth bike, and by far the best bike I have owned. I went to a demo days here in Minnesota, and I couldn't wait to get rid of my Road Star for this bike. I recommend that you take a Victory for a spin. I will never go back to metric. Show less

I am extremely satisfied with my 2010 Kingpin 8 Ball. It handles very well and has great acceleration. Just roll the throttle and go! Show less

This is my fifth Victory and I must say it is the best one yet! I have been test riding the Vision at every opportunity since it came out in 2008. I could never get past some of its looks but the 8-ball took care of all that. Once you get on this thing, you will not want to get off. It is comfortable and handles like a dream. It leaves everyone in the dust on the Blue Ridge twistys. Show less

I have had a lot of bikes and this 8-Ball is without a doubt the best of the best. I also think the people at the dealership in Burlington, Ontario are among the greatest I have ever dealt with. Show less

I sat on nearly a dozen bikes before the 8-Ball and I definitely chose the best one. I had great service from the dealership on getting me a one up seat. It has all the power I want and a little extra. I'm looking forward to a long summer of riding. Show less

I bought the 2011 8-Ball! I got to thank the person at the dealership for everything he has done for me. He "waited" two years to make my purchase. I have no complaints on the bike. I get a lot of looks and compliments from other riders. I can't wait to purchase a set of pipes for this bike. No complaints. Show less

This is my third season and I absolutely still love this bike. It's a head turner everywhere I go. The bike stands out at all events in a sea of chrome. My mechanic did some remapping to get some popping and stuttering out of the engine at low rpms. (1800-1500 range). He stated this was due to the fact that the 2009's were the first to receive an O2 sensor and the factory mapping was not totally correct after adding the Ness pipes. I'm not a gear head but it runs smooth now. This bike is perfect for my needs. Show less
