Victory Hammer

The Victory Hammer comes with a cowl for the passenger portion of the seat to give the bike a custom look. Victory Hammer also makes an accessory part that allows you to mount the cowl over the front headlight like a flyscreen.Top of the aftermarket wish-lists - and especially popular with the chopper crowd - were six-speed gearboxes and ultra-fat rear tyres, so Victory Hammer added both features to the Victory Hammer.

The bike I had did not have this part installed but I think it would be a must buy if I was going to own a Victory Hammer. Victory Hammer  has a very large selection of parts and accessories that you can put on the bike to truly make it your own which is what owning a cruiser is all about.

There are so many stunning customised Victory Hammer twins in Daytona Beach during Bike Week that a standard production bike has to be pretty special to stand out from the crowd. And the Victory Hammer certainly turned plenty of heads as it thundered down the Daytona streets.

As I dropped the Victory Hammer s clutch at the lights and charged away at the head of the pack, with the big Victory Hammer twin motor churning out low-rev torque through the gigantic back tyre, and the Florida sunshine glinting off chrome and custom-style paintwork, the big Victory Hammer  felt mighty good.

When Victory Hammer  was looking for a way to develop the Vega, the temptation must have been to join the cruiser manufacturers' capacity race, against the likes of triple. Instead the Minnesota firm took its inspiration from the modifications that many Harley owners were making to their bikes. .

Victory Hammer  did very little to alter the Vegas's distinctive shape or its twin-downtube, steel-framed chassis layout. But the Victory Hammer  gets upside-down front forks and twin 300mm discs with four-pot Brembo calipers, instead of the Vegas's conventional forks and single disc. And then there's that gigantic rear Dunlop Elite 3 radial, so fat it looks as though it'd be more at home on a car than a bike.

Valentino Rossi, Ricky Carmichael and James Stewart may be difficult to beat, but the perhaps the biggest goliath in motorcycledom is Harley-Davidson. The Motor Company pulls in billions each year via sales of its iconic bikes Victory Hammer and from the proceeds gained by merchandizing its products and apparel with the famous bar-and-shield logo.

Throbby vibration from the 50-degree Victory Hammer Twin is omnipresent but never objectionable. The pulsations from the engine can be reduced further on the open road by shifting into sixth gear, a real cruiser rarity and the "6" is the powerplant's 100/6 designation.

Victory Hammer s market research revealed that the top request among cruiser customers was for a 6-speed transmission so it granted that wish. The torquier new motor easily carries the taller sixth gear without it lugging. We also appreciated the short and precise action from the gearbox, admirably light for a big Victory Hammer Twin cruiser.

The Victory Hammer  gives its rider clear information from the tach and speedo that is underlined by the Victory Hammer 's handsome flat handlebar. The chromed piece is about 2 inches further forward than the Vegas/Kingpin bars, but short arms are stretched to their limits during u-turns.

Victory Hammer Taller riders didn't notice, but those with T-Rex arms might want to opt for the Kingpin bar that is a direct bolt-on. A touring handlebar from Victory Hammer 's accessory catalog can pull the bars a further 2 inches toward the rider for maximum long-haul comfort.

The Stage Victory Hammer  we rode was fitted with an optional sport windscreen. Its super-clever design keeps wind from a rider's body, but it induces some unwelcome turbulence around the head at highway speeds. Victory Hammer The clever part is how the optional solo seat cowl can be quickly unfastened from the seat and plugged in to the windscreen when an attractive passenger presents him- or herself. We raise a glass to the bright engineer who came up with this intelligent feature.

Like most cruisers with a wide rear tire the Victory Hammer does exhibit the tendency to want to lean to the right while riding. This is due to the fact that there is a lot of weight in the drive set-up hanging out pretty far to get the belt or chain around the rear tire.Victory Hammer  After a few miles in the saddle the feeling becomes less noticeable and after a week of riding you’ll stop noticing it completely.

Unlike a lot of bikes with a wide rear tire though, the Victory Hammer handles very well. The bike is very stable in sweepers and transitions relatively quickly through the tighter stuff. It is still a cruiser though so don’t get any ideas of outrunning even a moderately good sportbike rider on a twisty road. Victory Hammer If you do get the itch the pegs touching down followed shortly by the exhaust or the side-stand will rein in those urges.

 True greatness is often the product of unconventional thinking, like the Victory Hammer . We took the spirit of an American muscle car and ended up with a whole new category of motorcycle, the American muscle cruiser. Its muscle car beginnings are evident in its stout, muscular frame, beefy 250mm rear-tire, and aggressive lines. Victory Hammer The features are equally worthy of legendary status with an inverted front fork, dual-disk brakes, and the raw.
