About Victory
Country of Origin:
United States
Founder:
Polaris Industries
Best Known For:
Modern American V-twins with strong chassis (Vegas, Cross Country)
Company History
Launched by Polaris in 1998, Victory built contemporary American cruisers and tourers with an emphasis on handling, braking, and reliability. Clean-sheet engines, stout frames, and dealer-backed service earned respect from riders who wanted domestic motorcycles without vintage quirks. Models like the Cross Country delivered real-world touring competence—storage, weather protection, and ABS—while still sounding and feeling like big twins. Despite a loyal base, Polaris ultimately concentrated resources on the Indian revival, sunsetting Victory. The legacy endures: used examples remain sought for durability and the sense that an American cruiser can carve corners and run cross-country with minimal drama.
