Quote: if people are going to spend $17,000 they are going to buy a harley.period.
I think people go for a Victory because they don't want to be lumped into this very large assumption, which is very true a lot of times.
i do understand why the few who do buy Victory do.however those guys are few and far between.nowadays most of the people spending that kind of money on bikes are RUBs,posers,and yuppies;and those guys love the Harley costume image that Harley is now catering to.here in Dayton, Ohio where i live there is a fairly large weekly bike nite that attracts about 3,000 bikes each week,and out of that lot i usually only see 1 or 2 Victory's.there are two crowds there,the Harley guys,and the ones with jap bikes that wish they had Harley's.man i'm sure glad i bought a Triumph.my cousin has been keeping his softail deuce in my garage(he's going through a bad divorce)and he let's me ride whenever i want,but every time i'm on it i wish i was on my speedmaster.i just don't get the Harley image thing,it's a nice bike but riding is like watching The Phantom Menace,a lot of build up only to be let down.
