Victory Vegas Jackpot reviews

I bought a Kawasaki Versys back in 2008 but my eye was really on the Vegas they had nearby. I decided to get my experience with the Versys and to one day return for the Vegas. Now, 2011, I returned and got my Vegas! The bike is a beast. I love the way it is balanced, low center of gravity, handles like a dream and tons of torgue. I haven't open her up yet, trying to adhere to the break-in proceedures but man it is tough! I extended the controls two inches for my height. I would have given it all 5's but my tailight didn't work and had to return it a week later. I know I love this bike because the two days it was in the shop, it was all I could think about.

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

From seating position, comfort, reliability, quality, performance and styling....my Harley buddies begrudgingly admit what I have known all along.... I HAVE A GREAT MOTORCYCLE. Show less

I got my blue Vegas a couple weeks ago. I added the Victory leather-covered bags, "short" windshield and seat with driver's backrest. I went on a 150-mile group ride the next day and was pleased to be very comfortable all day! It is so easy to handle, and leans into curves very confidently. No vibration in the hand grips. I traded in a 900 Kaw and was a little hesitant to move up to something this big, but I immediately settled in and love cruising this bike! I get lots of compliments. My Harley pals like her because she's American-made, and my "metric" pals like her because she's not a Harley. 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

I learned how to ride a motorcycle over 20 years ago, but bought my first one last year. I got my beautiful 2003 Vegas because I wanted a truly AMERICAN MADE bike, and I live in the city where HOGs come from. Even though I'm short, and it's a heavy bike, (675 dry weight) I can still handle it easily and it goes fast when I need it to. I did have to put a new lowering package on the bike to reduce the height down a little, but it was worth it. It dropped it about 2" and makes it even more comfortable to handle. I always get compliments and looks because of its beautiful design. Even HD riders tell me they're envious. Fantastic bike, best money I've ever spent. The only thing I wish I could change is that the turn signals front and back are horribly small. I've tried to get some bigger ones from Victory and/or aftermarket, but there aren't any available.

I bought my Victory Vegas in May of 2010 and it is just the best bike out there. I have riden it in Arizona and took it to Florida, Mississipi, Georgia, and Alabama and the bike just handled perfectly half way across country. The ride is smooth and just the overall look and feel of it causes people to turn around and look at it all the time. It's the best bike ever! Show less

I've been on a bike for almost 50 years (began at 5). I owned a Harley (FLH Classic) and my Vegas Low 2008 is by far the best bike I've ever owned!!! The handling, power, style, sex appeal (yes) - and I just love the 6 speeds!!! Long Live Victory!!!!!! Show less
