fuel injection, swap the 3 sp auto for an overdrive unit and that would not be bad

It is a scout only styled a bit more modern - but acting like parent companies don’t do this with other bikes is a joke - Kawasaki uses the same motor and and trans for their entry level cruiser as they do for the ninja - This is all about cost savings, Victory’s have used the exact same engine/trans and frame combo…

too lazy to hit ctrl+t then type turbo timer because reasons

because I am too lazy to google and know not enough about turbos, but a turbo timer is used to keep the engine running for a set time after you pull the key so your turbo has a chance to spool down for longevity, correct? and scorn me if I am wrong

Referred to a German supercharger because it came off an early new bmw/mini cooper s - seriously watch the entire build on yourtube, is fantastic!!!!

The entire build series was a roller coaster of emotions, starting off sounding simple and turning into a nightmare of electronics, old and new mechanics and just general MCM buffoonery!!!

Had one, would buy in a heartbeat, not the quickest but quick enough and it will run forever with regular oil changes and what not - and it looks great, pocket change winner right there!!!

Been just over 100 on a ninja 650r and that was too fast I like cruising now

1. What is the real world Range?

subscribed, now at 99,992 so close

Shoot Victory makes almost an entire line of bikes from one platform changing out only the clothes and shoes on their kids, motor, frame and trans are all the same across the entire line except for the 1 electric bike

Great article, love the links to gear and as always a bit of funny

I live in Houston, all metric and the Polaris built (Indian & Victory) cruisers come standard with oil coolers at a minimum, HD makes you purchase a $200+ unit from the dealer and then there is an install charge

1. Why does it not come from the factory with an oil cooler?

While everything could be fixed, at what cost? Why not just buy a 318 in stock form and do my own damage to it for close to the same price?

forget the kids throw a couple dogs in there and a dog transport magnet / sticker on the back and I know you won’t get stopped

I would argue a minivan, but add a dog transport magnet to each side and a couple of dogs and you can freely run up down i95 moving dogs from the deep deep to NYC right along with the coke and nobody stops you

So many better options for police motorcycles than H-D but tradition is tradition

Love the review!!! Coworker has been thinking about a Scout but he is a new rider, just sent him this to get him interested in maybe a bit more of an entry level bike

I have read both cruiser reviews and can’t wait for more reviews and especially the gear reviews
