  • Always wanted a harley BUT
    By  (I am an Owner) on Feb 03, 2013

    I love my bike. You gotta like a little attention and have a little time to spare becouse people well want to talk to you. New in 2008 I had promised myself my second ever owned bike. Thought it would a harley. A little trouble adjusting to a 250 rear tire but now in 2013 its a part of me. No regrets ...

  • Jackpot Premium, outstanding motorcycle
    By  (I am an Owner) on Feb 21, 2012

    I purchased a 2008 Victory Jackpot Premium in early 09. I've had Harley's and an Indian in the past. This Jackpot far exceeds very other motorcyle I've ever owned. It handles and performs better than expectation and never a problem of any kind. The best American bike on the market as far as I'm concerned.

  • Hit the Jackpot
    By  (I am an Owner) on Sep 11, 2008

    Bought my Jackpot in April '08

    So far this year have put 4000.mi. on the clock. No problems at all.

    Love the ride the price paid,$18,000 and the looks. I can't stop for gas that I don't hear "nice bike". Even the other American bike riders have good things to say.

    So far at ...

    Unlike a lot of other dealers. Victory Dealers say come on in and test ride one. That's all it takes.
