Hi everyone.
I just opened this account here because I am interested in buying a Victory motorcycle. I was hoping to do some searching and get some input. I am currently looking to purchase a new bike and I am looking at the Kingpin Tour. I am currently riding a V-4 Magna which I love but it is too small to comfortably carry me and the wife. I guess I was hoping to get some input; I am looking at a few bikes, my favorite two I have looked at/ridden so far are the HD Road Glide and Yamaha Royal Star Tour Deluxe, but both are absolutely huge (which really isn't a problem) and I like the looks of the Victory better. I guess I am looking to find out a few things;
How reliable the Victory bikes are
If they have a high maintenance cost
How readily available aftermarket/custom parts are
and........
I hope I don't irritate people (It's just an honest question)
Why they seem to lose value like metric bikes do when compared to HD which seems to hold higher value (from what I've read the Victory seems to be technically superior).
I have never owned an HD, always owned japanese bikes, so what can I expect if I were to buy a Victory?
