Vic trikes

[CyberVet65]

Lehman has the exclusive build kits (I think)for the Vic bikes.At least I haven't seem any Hannigan or CSC trikes with Victory front ends.
I own a Victory and love it. I have seen the Lehman hooked up to a 100 c.i. with a 6 speed. I like the build for a stock machine. But it was not for me. The wife liked the color and fit and finish but there was a teeny passenger pad. I like the overall look of the Victory trike but wanted something a little more for the open road.

Welcome CyberVet65! Great to have you on board. ---
The Victory bikes do look good and appear to be great bikes, but they haven't seemed to have caught on like the Harleys yet. I guess it took Harley 100 years to get where they are now huh? Which Vic do you have?

I havea 03 Touring Cruiser Deluxe. Victory doesn't produce these anymore since the launch of the Vision. Great bike.

Got to ride a Vision at this last year's bikes, Blues and Bar-B-Q in Fayetteville, Ar. Liked the ride and layout, was very comfortable and the wife said the admiral's perch was the most comfey she has sat on. Only thisng I didn't like was the small saddlebags. They look big until you open the covers, not much room in there. If you can get past the 1930's this-is-what-a- motorcycle-will-look-like-in-the-next-century Buck Rogher look (I happen to like it) the Vision is a fine ride.

The only thing I didn't like was I don't have any money to get a new bike, with both of the ones in the family already paid for.

I really want to see the Vision in a trike. Done right to the style it is a 2 wheeler, having a trunk below the tour trunk would giva a lot more storage, and I think it would look sharp.

I has my Hannigan K LT trike inspected at the neighborhood Victory dealership and was most favorably impressed with Victory! The engine is remarkably smooth running and the fit/finish was top notch. Anyone looking for a new cruiser owes it to himself/herself to test ride one, in my opinion. I suspect that as the word gets out, Victory will make a big impact in the market and that trike kits will follow.

I tell ya CV, if I were going to buy another bike, I LOVE the Vegas Jackpot, and I don't really care for customs or choppers that much. But that thing is nice !!!

Victory has no plans to compete with H-D. They have a share of the industry and continue to produce new models. If I lived near a large town that had a "cruise nite" I would own a Hammer "S". A stock custom looking bike. I like the Lehman prototype that they built with a Vegas front. Really nice set up but is really a cruiser. I love my GL1800 Lehman trike. But I do like the fact that I still have my Vic.
