presentation of the 1700 VEGAS 2016
it's back after a few years' hiatus. To discover the Victory range, the custom Vegas is certainly the most appropriate model. Long, low, muscular and voluptuous, this machine verges on the passionate. Set next to a Harley of the same ilk, it could easily overshadow the Milwaukee machines. Sitting at the heart of the chassis, an enormous 1731 cm3 twin ensures the Vegas' palpitations. But why 1731? Maybe for us Europeans. But in the States, we count in Cubic Inches. And the bicycle named "Freedom" in cube 106. It's proudly inscribed on the cover between the engine fins. Packed with power and torque, the block is also equipped with a 6-speed gearbox, the last of which acts as an overdrive.
typically cruising, the Vegas intends to offer a new alternative to the eternal H-D, while showcasing its superb design. From the chromed rims to the magnificent tank that runs the length of the bike, the look and feel of this custom are both appealing. Lovers of fine machines should not be disappointed by Victory's offensive on our roads. Harley may not be so keen to share this terrain with a compatriot.

Bikers' reviews Leave a review - 2 reviews
On the plus side: big torque. Indestructible engine. The look. Having an American v-twin that stands out from the Harley family.
Negatives: no ABS. original pot a little weak. Small, expensive and shrinking aftermarket. Rating : 4/5 Respond to Frenchy
The weight is quickly forgotten, and even if it's clear that this isn't a sports car, I let myself get carried away from time to time. (Of course, it rubs when cornering, but the retractable footbraces do the job :p)
Let's hope Indian decides to release bikes of this size now that Victory is discontinuing production of these magnificent machines. Rating : 5/5 Respond to Viking420
