Victory announce 2016 model range

Victory Motorcycles have announced their 2016 range, with a raft of subtle design updates and new colours across most of its cruiser, bagger and touring bikes – but no new models.

So how does the range shape up in 2016?

VEGAS

The Vegas 8-Ball (all-black) and the Vegas have had the biggest changes this year. Each has an improved round headlight and colour-matched frames. Victory has also upgraded the wheels for each model, fitting cast aluminium axe design ‘Falchion’ wheels. These are lighter and stronger. The painted frame adds a custom touch, but not a gram of weight. A new, sleeker headlight further slims the profile. The Vegas 8-Ball comes in Gloss Black and the Vegas is only on sale in Sunset Red.
