I want a Kingpin in the worst way, but I'm afraid of "Harley Remorse Syndrome". I thought I was too smart to be seduced by the whole Harley nostalgia and heritage hype, and who in their right mind would spend more money for an technically inferior machine. Still though, it's hard. Any other Victory riders struggle with this??
@sleazyweaz well ou bring up a good point that we contend with Daily and we have to hand it to HD for the marketing but your right, how would someone in their right mind spend more money for a technically inferior machine, you answered your own question. LOL Ride safe whatever you ride
@ozjas Victory delivers outstanding performance and durability which Harley Davidson cannot possibly hope to compete with. Harley Davidson has been using the same primitive motors for 20 years. So yes, the kingpin will be around in 20 years while the Harley will be falling apart from vibrations just like any other Harley. Sorry to break it to you son, but Victory is all American tough muscle, while Harley is a fat kid with a bit of torque.
Since Fat Boy has Low, The one year King Pin Low should be brought back to match up against the Harley Model. I did both but I honestly felt more comfortable on the Kingpin Low...
Is using the term metric supposed to be an insult??? I LOL @ U.
Why doesn't anyone ever ask the SAE barbarians why they fear metric sockets? Do they think there is some cosmic force that prevents steel from being forged to metric sizes within the continental US?
Victory Motorcycle assembled at the Spirit Lake, Iowa facility, while assembly of the Freedom V-twin engine will also move to the Spirit Lake factory .This allows all Victory manufacturing and assembly to occur in a single location, and lets the manufacturer continue to state Victorys are "American-made motorcycles". Pandya also said there are "planned investments going into the Spirit Lake plant as it becomes the Victory Motorcycles Center of Excellence
they are built in spirit lake iowa,and trust me victorys parent company polaris knows being american made is what sells these bikes.
also polaris is not moving the sleds or atvs out of the country,they are selling the plant in wisconsin like many other companies because wisconsins has become very unfreindly to business,including harley-davidson.
they moved most of that plants operations to their plant in minesota,and spirit lake iowa.>>>continued
@onecylanderracer <<<polaris is trying to keep all of that plants operations in the usa.
polaris may open a plant in mexico to make surtain non cridical components for the sleds and atvs,i.e. some parts etc,final assembly of the sleds and atvs will still be in the usa along with the side by sides which are made in the usa.
victory is a seperate divison of polaris industries and all of victorys manufacturing takes place in spirit lake iowa,usa.
