2004 Victor Touring Cruiser
Sonic Blue with Flames



Before this bike I had a 2000 Yamaha V-Star 650 Custom

Welcome aboard! That's a nice looking bike you got there.

Welcome to the board!!! LOVE THE BIKE

How was the transition from a 650 to the Victory? The Victory is a 1600 right?

I found it to be pretty different. I sit higher in the Victory and it's obviously heavier - but not hard to hold up or anything. The power is in a completely different league. Excellent stock seat - at least for my end. It's also very roomy. I can hardly tell that my wife is on pillion.

One of the things I noticed that I really really like is the position of the speedometer - it's right on top of the headlight. Since I wear a full face, I don't have to tilt my head down to see my speed on the tank - it's already at the bottom of my view. Funny how small things can make a big difference.

My bike has the 92ci/1507cc Freedom motor. A stage II would take it to 100ci/1640cc. Most of the new bikes have the 100ci motor standard now.

It's a sweet ride.

awesome!

Dude, that is a fancy paint job ya got there. Is that stock from Victory? What kind of range do you get on the bike?

Welcome to the forums too.

It was a paint option for the '04 line. Most of the Vics have some type of custom looking paint option you can get. I usually go 150 miles between fillups. The gauge tells me theres about 1 gallon left after that but I end up putting only about 3.5 gal in for the 5 gal tank. There is no reserve so I can't take it to the limit to find out just how far it really can go...

Welcome to the forums too.
