Victory Touring Cruiser reviews

I'm done shopping for motorcycles... and my Jeep is seriously jealous of my Victory.

I've got 22000 miles of riding through Colorado, Wyoming and New Mexico under my tires on this bike and I've never regretted buying my Victory. Handles like a dream in all conditions and is a really fun ride through the canyons. I also enjoy being the odd duck that isn't on either a Harley or a crotch rocket. I always get great comments, but that may be because my rider is so good looking... Show less

During the Summer of 2003 I was riding a Kawasaki Nomad, which by the way is a great bike. A coworker just purchased a new Victory Classic Cruiser and was picking it up from the dealer. The sales manager asked me if I had ever ridden a Victory before and I said no. The sales manager insisted that I ride one and put me on a 2003 Touring Cruiser demo bike. I was hooked on Victory Touring Cruisers from that day on. don't just take my word for it ride a Victory Touring Cruiser. They handle great. Show less

I've had seven other bikes in my life. This is the first American made bike. I wanted an HD. But in May 04 I found the Classisc Cruiser. As far as I'm concerned my Vic and I will never part ways...unless I choose to get a Hammer. I just completed a 1600 mile road trip and found the stock seat much more comfortable than my last Japanese bike. But stops for gas turned into "bottom" breaks too. I'm considering a Mustang seat now. Otherwise I'd rather ride my bike on a trip than drive my car. There's no other bike for me. Show less

First cruiser, replaced HD Sporty. Exceptional ride and handling, not to mention eye appealling. Compared to a HD, many standard items could be considered optional. More to follow after break-in. Show less

Right out of the dealership, I had the Stage 1 kit added which really made it growl with more authority. I added a Mustang seat with the backrest as it was needed because the stock seat gave me back aches on extended rides. I also added highway pegs with the forward extensions so I can stretch out my long legs. I've had it serviced three times so far all at different Victory dealerships and all three were very good. Everytime I think I should go back to H-D, I can't find a good enough reason to get rid of my '03 V92C. I get more compliments at bike nights than my friends get on their Road Kings and Fat Boys that seem all to common now. I still like the world of Harleys but if you like a good, American made bike that's not what eveyrone else if riding, then Victory is your bike. See you at Bike Night. Show less

You want a cruiser that has room for the long legs, runs up and down the hills, highways, and byways, then this is the bike for you. I've got 22,000 miles on my 2002 Victory Touring Cruiser, with no mechanical problems at all. Mileage is between 38mpg (80-85 mph) and 45mpg (mountain cruising). It's been on long hauls and short hauls. Fantastic bike. Show less

After not riding for 28 years, I wanted to get back into it. I was impressed with the quality of the Victory and even more impressed by the sevice of the dealership. I was not disappointed at all. A great ride, American made and not like all the other Harleys. I've never looked back! Show less

I have been to many places and rode with many people and this bike is great. I have had no problems and with the old school look, people stop and look. My dealership has been great and keeps in touch all the time. It will be going into the shop for the upgrade to the big bore 106 kit. I love the bike and I'm happy I bought it. Show less

I picked up my new 2004 Touring Cruiser on September 10, 2004, trading in a 2001 V-Star 1100 Classic. I kept my 2001 Roadstar, so I have a good comparison ride still on hand. I decided on Victory after taking a test ride, but I was already impressed after a good look-over. This bike has top-quality parts (aftermarket parts on most other brands) from the start along with show-quality fit and finish. Mine is the sonic blue with Hot Rod flames, and she's a real looker. Right now, I have no plans to upgrade the stock seat, as my primary passenger agrees with me that it is as comfortable as the Mustang seat (for now) on my Roadstar, only with more room to stretch. Well balanced, powerful, and just plain fun to ride! Finally got my 500 mile service done on Oct. 14, as the weather kind of hampered reaching enough miles. Looking forward to many miles and years with this ride. Ride Safe! Show less

haven't had a bike for 25 years. Last bike was a Honda 650. Wanted a large bike for touring 2-up with comfort and performance as the main criterion. The unique classy style was a great bonus! I like the idea of a "head turner" bike that you don't see every other biker on going down the highway. Purchased this used with all accesories shown from a great local dealer. The only thing I had added was the Stage One Kit. (A must have in my opinion). The Stage One Kit is SWEET! Really adds to the performance, and you can't beat that low rich rumble! The H-D riders look twice when I go by. I've only had the bike a month, but have almost 1000 miles on it. It has been flawless. Great power and the handling/braking is outstanding. This bike is home on the highway. The added size/weight is a joy on the open road. I remember being tossed all over the road with the old Honda. Not with this bike! More comfort and passenger room than the H-D Road King (Optional Mustang seat dealer added). The only negative that keeps me from a perfect 5 in the quality department is the cheap plastic front turn lights instead of using good chrome. Not a deal breaker, and an easy upgrade for less than a C-note. You'd think for the price they could of done a bit better on these. After a hard look at the H-D Electra Glide, the Victory won out in just about all areas. Every little thing was an "add-on for additional cost" from H-D. Got it all included on the Vic and saved about 3K over the HD. Very pleased. I'd do it all over again with Victory. Show less
