Well I went out to Victory. First the bikes are stunning. Amazing that I can find 3 bikes I fall in love with instantly.
Now the problem. Boy they don't have the feel and sound. I guess they ride so well which is good, I just can't feel the soul of the bike. From day one I knew when my bike wanted to shift. On the Vic I don't here or feel the bike when riding. Sound weird but I like feeling my bike as I ride her. No gas gage and abs plus no feel just left me undecided.
Plus it was 2 hours over there on a sunny 95 degree day. Loved the ride on the Luxe. Guess I will wait and see what Sept and the 2012 models bring for HD and Vic. Until then my bike aint so bad ; )

Put some Bassani 2-1 or RPW slash pipes on the Vic and you will hear and feel it then.

Yeah I think I have come down. On the Black em out thread above there is a shot with some night trains just posted and man that rings my bell.
Looks like a I need an 08-09 Black Night train. Lower her, swept pipes and some different handle bars and thats my bike.

Still going to see what 2012 adds to the mix first.
