It's awesome!
By (I am an Owner) on Dec 06, 2011Traded my HD Street Glide and couldn't be happier. The handling and power were both improved with the switch. It was hard decision to move away from HD, but I've got no regrets now.

Nice bike!
By (I am an Owner) on Nov 12, 2011I bought our XC Labor Day weekend and have put 3,000 miles on it since. It rides great, looks great and best of all, my wife refers to it as "our bike ". If you are taller than 5'10", like the full face helmet and go faster than 65 mph, you will want lowers and a taller windshield. The sound system ... is good but get's really good when you add the optional trunk. (it has speakers, and a power source built in!)
The bags and trunk hold more than you will need for a week long trip. ( without doing laundry!)
The bike handles remarkably well. It is fun to ride with or without a passenger.

A great ride
By (I am an Owner) on Aug 12, 2011I was shopping for a HD Street glide, after being treated like crap at both our HD dealers I needed BBQ suplies, when stopped I noticed there was a Polaris dealer next door who sold Victory. I went in and was greeted at the door by a salesman who asked if I needed help, I said I was just looking ... and he left me alone for approx 5 min. When he saw that I was looking more intently at the CC he came over again and was really friendly and new his stuff. He said to come by the next day and I could take one for a test ride for as long as I wanted, I did was extremely impressed, the power, handling and overall feel of the bike was great, so I bought one. I'd been riding HD for the last 15 years and I'm really happy with my decision. Most of the guys I ride with gave me a hard time until they rode it. One buddy just picked up a Vagas Jackpot and loves it.

Just right!
By (I am an Enthusiast) on Jul 08, 2011I swapped my Street Glide for my buddy's Victory Cross Country a couple weekends ago, and I have to admit, I became addicted to the power and the handling this bike provided. Victory is becoming more and more popular in my area and now I know why. Saving my money for one.

Victory CC Review
By (I am an Owner) on Jun 18, 2011I just returned to CA from attending Rolling Thunder in Washington DC. I made the trip on my Harley Heritage Softtail Claccis. Before the trip I loved that bike. It immediately became apparent that this is the wrong bike for a 6,000 mile trip. After looking at Street Glides, Road Glides and used ... Gold Wings I chose a Victory CC. This bike has more power than the Harleys, far superior brakes than my Heritage Classic and a 30% improvement in gas mileage. The bike handles more like a BMW than a HOG. It is light handling and stays in the turns just where you put it and it is effected less by wind. The travel of the suspension gives a very smooth ride and the cruise control is great. Lastly, you just can't beat the price! Same price as a 3 year old Wing and significantly less than the Harleys. When I bought my Heritage the extended warranty was $1,800. I asked why it was soo expensive and the dealer said "because you are going to use it.!" The Victory extended warranty was $300!!!

breath of fresh air
By (I am a Writer) on Jun 07, 2011I recently traded in my Yamaha raider for my new cross country, I needed a bike that would be comfortable for both my wife and myself, I can't say enough about the ride. Another concern I had was the power I would be giving up, after our first ride that concern was gone...I took a street glide for ... a test ride the morning of my purchase and I definitely feel I made the best choice..take one for a ride a d fall in love with the victory like I have.
