Anyone been on a Victory

[Steve]

No, but I watched an attractive young lady try to turn around in a gravel parking lot for quite a while using the fifteen point turn technique. Don't those things have reverse? Very interesting. Very attractive except for the brand new pirate garb.

Not sure about the Boss Hoss line, but I think the only bikes with reverse are the GoldWings.

Reasonably sure that the Harley trikes and Boss Hoss trikes have reverse, don't know about other trike conversions.

I was wondering how long it would take for a seemingly honest question to degenerate into a Harley bash.

It doesn't take long at all. Probably a bad idea posting your thread with this crowd. Not that long ago I posted a similar thread asking if anyone had any experience with the V-Rod. It was a bad idea too. It became completely argumentative and counterproductive to it's original intent. I became so disgusted that I wound up deleting the thread in it's entirety. Hope you get better results.

I actually dig the Boss-Hoss bikes, nothing like having an American made V-8 strapped between your legs! As long as it's a Chevy and not a Ford motor......... LOL!

Several years ago, they had three engines available. The "small" one was the 4.3L V6, then the 5.7L (350ci) V8 and the 8.2L (502ci) V8.

I have seen a few of them in action. Let's just say "interesting".

A great "styling" bike, but even with its 9-gallon fuel tank, its range is no better than most GS L bikes.

I also rode a few on demo day and I was impressed with the engine and the handling was Ok. I liked the Judge. Not enough cornering clearance.

V-rod's is cool looking. Don't know why any one would bash another on two or even three wheels. Scooters, c-rockets, heck even a engine dropped onto the front of a bicycle works... Z'all good if they are done correctly

Here is one that works for me... http://images.craigslist.org/01515_c...uX_600x450.jpg

Sorry, but this wasn't my thread. I was just trying to contribute, as I did on your V-Rod thread. But this thread wasn't even about an HD. All the bashing used to pi$$ me off. Now it's just boring, and a waste of an excellent resource.

Here are my two pet peeves with Harleys.

1... Its way over priced based on "NOSTALDIA". Damned thing is juat another bike really.

2... The look down their nose attitudes coupled with I am a BILLY BADAZZ attitude is a real turn off..just be a normal regular dude and it would be more well received.

Yeah. The Harley bashing is all in good fun.

Agree with you 100% there. There is a lot of experience in the collective brain trust of all the members. Sure would have liked to have tapped into that in a positive constructive way myself...

Aint no fun in his posts. He's dead set serious. Ashamed really, to be so closed minded and hard headed.

[chuck hahn]

Damned right I am dead set serious!!!! I grew up around the Harley douches and to this day they are STILL Harley douches!!!!!


Bunch of friggin dicckholes with a slow noisy bike and an attitude like they were the end all of all motorcyclists.

Then theres you Todd. Example of exactly WHY I don't like the Harley douche clan.

Perhaps they're only douches to you. For good reason!

No skin off my a$$, I couldn't care less about you or your trailer park opinions.

[chuck hahn]

Nope..has nothing to do with me. I can go anywhere and not know anyone for 300 miles around and a Harley douche acts like a Harley douche...its not geographics or anything of the sort. They are universally azzhats...so I don't like or hang with the azzhats

Plain and simple.

[Octain]

Back to the subject at hand..

Victory is a great looking bike and although I have never been on one I wouldn't turn down a test ride, for sure.

To me, the engine looks kinda odd. It's like the jugs are too tall, or something.
Yes, it's gotta look good.

[chuck hahn]

Well I must be pretty important to you!!! Your in the trailer right next door!!!

I mean whenever I post you come along like one of my deciples to pay homage to me..so I surely appreciate the attention and admiration that you shower me with!!
