Victory line-up for the year 2012

By Adrian

American motorcycle manufacturer Victory showed up at the 2011 EICMA without actual new products but with a consistent number of upgrades of its existing models. The main thing is that they have equipped the whole range with the 106CI engine (which stands for 106 cubic inches, 1731 cc) including the High Ball, the bobber with huge ape hanger handlebars based on the Vegas model. Victory then offers a huge variety of new color schemes, some of which have been designed by renowned aftermarket company Arlen Ness: you can check them all out in our photo gallery.

The 106CI is a V-Twin engine with 4-valve overhead cam delivering 97 hp at 5,000 rpm and 153 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm, and in 2012 all Victory motorcycles will use it coupled with 6-speed overdrive transmission and standard ABS. Besides, Victory’s Cross Country, Cross Roads, Cross Roads Special LE,Vision, Vegas and Hammer received some slightly modified ergonomics in an attempt to make the riding experience more comfortable.

Video: new Victory Motorcycles High Ball and Cross Country Tour

By Alison

This video presents the two brand new Victory Motorcycles models for 2012. The models have been added to the range to expand it and don’t substitute any previous models. A new Victory Edge program has also been developed which is a new quality and performance control system to ensure the customer gets the best product.

The Victory High Ball model already debuted this year, but hasn’t been on sale so far. It will hit dealerships from next year and has been built using the Vegas and Hammer chassis. It’s very much the retro bobber bike, with wide vintage-style tyres and high handlebars. Colours include options like matte black and it will represent the entry-level model of the cruiser range.

The Victory Cross Country Tour is a new version of the standard Cross Country, but is closer to a grand touring model, particularly in teh company of two. It has features like new adjustable leg protection fairing, large windshield and a spacious top case, and will appear in the range between the Cross and the Vision.
