Church Of MO First Ride: Polaris Victory Vegas

Church Of MO First Ride: Polaris Victory Vegas

The new millennium was a big occasion around the world. While some were worried the world's computers would revert back to 1900 once Y2K struck, in the moto world, there was much buzz in the world of racing. Ducati were owning World Superbike with the 996, and Honda wanted a piece of the pie.... 

Sheesh, two motorcycle manufacturers shutting their doors in less than a month. First it was Victory, and now it's Buel... errr, EBR. Coincidentally, Buell got his time in the spotlight in last week's Church feature, and while we don't normally post consecutive Church features from the same...

Due to Euro 4 regulations, this week Victory announced its European lineup would be reduced down to four models: the Octane, Gunner, High-ball and Judge (which, ironically, isn't part of Victory's 2017 U.S. lineup). After reading the news, it seemed fitting to make Victory the marque of choice... 

Kids. For every hard-working junior scholar in the world, there's probably four or five little hooligans who prefer to walk on the wild side. You know, the kids who race their Big Wheels down steep hills, poke bee hives, throw rocks at dogs or joy-ride their mom's car at 15.The OEMs are grateful...
