    I agree they do run pretty strong, but a Victory Crossroads/Magnum with a few mods i.e., cams/air box mod, timing change and fuel controller (about $1500 total costs) will absolutely "blow the HD into the weeds"...I know as I had one for a while....Cost for the bike and mods is a whole lot less than the CVO Harley... But, the F6B will "do-in" both of them at half the cost almost....Ride safe

    My grandson rolled over it with his dump truck. I'd like to send it back to Harley in pieces and tell them the clutch went on this one too.

    I read this whole article when I was doing my research on buying a new bike last summer. I can't believe what folks pay for an air-cooled twin (fairly cheap engine to manufacture) that powers a rattling bike with 2-3" of suspension travel and radio. $33k? Sheesh. What is the profit margin on those things ?!?!
    Its not that fast. I rode with one of those a few months ago. Guy was pretty froggy. Buddy of mine told me , he'll try you before the day is out. He knows he can beat us so you will be the target. Sure enough coming out of a small town a long straight stretch opened up and when I hit 60 mph I looked back and he had a hard run on me.I dropped back to third and cobbed on it. The B jumped up quick and he quit closing almost immediately. I ran it to redline in third and fourth before I looked back again. It was all over. Done took the wind out of his sail.
