KTM and Aprilia have their own forums and Victory doesn't even make the "others" category? C'mon now!

Oh you cooky Victory guys. Still think it was a good investment huh. Arlen may save the brand but every dealer I've seen in two states has closed their doors.

When Victory first started in '98 I was one of the first to put my $1000 down to reserve the right to buy one. Then in May it was delayed and promised for June. That went on 'till August when I said fork it and bought my ST1100 after a test ride. The dealer was so frustrated he was letting me ride anything on the floor. Best thing that ever happened to me.

Now I'm with you that they should have their own catagory but I think they won't be around long unless they come out with that new tourer we've been teased with.

My Victory was a great investment. Love the bike. MUCH better than the overheating P.O.S. ST1300 it replaced (most problematic bike I've owned).

Don't really care about your opinion tough guy. Just asking a question about the forums.

Ouch! Hatin' on the ST while it's down. Now that hurt, ivan. Well at least you didn't attack the VFR or Concourse.

Don't sweat it guy. Just trying to have some fun in the new forums. At least you got kp to jump to your defence.

I was one of the original with # 886 named phred. best bike I owned as far as comfort long riding, with a few add-ons. Dealer support sucked. The new ones are too "nessed up" for my taste, but If I can find a 2006 tourer....well, I too, will replace my 1300ST.

I went to a music festival a week or two ago, and some guy pulled up along side me on an 'Indian' I know they were a dismal failure, but it got my attention in a way that a Harley never would have. Victory's may or may not make it, but it's always interesting to see a non Japanese Harley clone.

HEY! MO...I'm still waiting.

Wow. It's now July 4th and still no movement on the Victory topic. I've been a MO subscriber for the last four years. If this is how the "NEW" MO operates, I'm glad I let my subscription lapse.

Is this site now run by advertising dollars rather than motorcycle riders?

There was a test of the new Victory just last week. Maybe you should read it.

Yeah, but with the new system if you are gone a week you might never find it.

Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tanhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.
