Always wanted a harley BUT
By (I am an Owner) on Feb 03, 2013I 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 ... of any kind oil changes are the only thing to do besides ride it.

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

2008 Victory Jackpot premuim
By (I am an Owner) on May 30, 2011Bought the bike in north Jersey which is a 2 hr drive from me. it was brand new... 17,000. lucky for me .. its a stander ed Jackpot... with all ness parts from a signature series bike. Don't ask me how this happened but the place where i got it from didn't realized till after i bought it. Everything ... that a signature series bike has was on it. After having the bike for a year which i did just get this in 2010.( 08 left over with 4 miles on it) This march... setting at a stop sign.. was hit... head on by a Full size GMC Pick up. By the Grace of God i didn't get a scratch on me. After my buddy had it in his shop.. made some calls and told me.. that the bike isn't a premium . its a stander ed Jackpot. i got the paper work saying it was a premium and the owners manual . long story short... insurance payed me 12.500 to fix the bike.. and now its a Pro street with 300 rear... fender cut to show off the back tire. 45 degree rake... lowered the back... and waiting now for my tins. should be ready this week!!!! i do have some pics of it... if anyone wants to see. thanks

Great Ride
By (I am an Owner) on Sep 04, 2009Just got the 2008 in Mar of 09 and have already put close to 8000 miles on it. Did replace the seat with a Corbin to make it better for a passengar. Love the ride and get a thumbs up all the time, and from alot of Harley riders. The color and rims were the final decision to buy this one. Plan on ... a 2000 mile ride in October and will find out how it is after that for comfort.

Hit the Jackpot
By (I am an Owner) on Sep 11, 2008Bought 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 ... 70mph I get 50mpg. Should do better at a slower speed but I don't see that happening.
Unlike a lot of other dealers. Victory Dealers say come on in and test ride one. That's all it takes.
