both look really nice, but Victory shut down their operations recently, said they will have parts for at least 10 year, but I assume the parts will be expensive
just reading the reviews, it seems to outperform on all levels when against the 1200 lineup
what worries me is that it's new, and i don't want to get fucked over by recalls, or defects
>but Victory shut down their operations recently, said they will have parts for at least 10 year, but I assume the parts will be expensive
lies. Victory is owned by Polaris who also owns Indian. Victory is being killed so the company can concentrate on Indian. Parts are easy to get and any Indian or Polaris dealer can service it
>I've read on forums (mainly Harley) that the big 4 constantly turn over engines, and parts are hard to come by
1)Consider the source
2)Most of the jap cruisers aren't your pappy's shovelhead. They won't need to be torn down every 30,000 for a rebuild. There are many cases of the Honda vt750, vt1100, and VTX1300 going well over 100,000 miles without any major service. The same can be said for yamaha's line of mid range cruisers.
The odds of you needing to do anything other than change oil and keep fresh rubber on any of the 750-1800cc jap cruisers is pretty low.
This desu

but the Scout looks really nice

And that's basically what I said. Indian dealers will have parts for it and be able to service it.
oh sorry, the only problem is that a dealership is kind of far from me (45 mins), while the harley dealership is close (15 mins)
they're constantly adding more Indian dealers. Driving farther to get a better product is worth it.
