Cry 'Havoc!' For voicing my own thoughts and feelings about my 2016 Victory Hammer S, you've earned my subscription. I won't ever sell it. I picked it up 2 years ago in Deland, Florida with only 342 miles on it (nubs still on the tires' gigantic chicken strips!) for $7K out the door. I'm riding it from Florida to Sturgis this year, doing some motorcycle camping along the way. (Replaced the seat to make this a reality) Great video!
2006 Hammer here. $3500 in 2022 from a Harley dealership. Stage 1 80hp and 103tq atw. Just bought a replacement intake and can't wait to get it installed and dyno tuned again. 😁 Only one I've seen around Pittsburgh which is sweet.
Beautiful bike. I bought a 2015 Victory Hammer S about 2 years ago and absolutely love riding it. Great bike. Agree with your assessment, parts shouldn't be a big problem.
G'day from Australia. I have 2014 Hammer S...absolutely love it. Not many getting around western australia. Cheers for the vid. Good to see a new clip pop up on youtube.
Had a 2012 Hammer with aftermarket exhaust, air intake and fuel controller. Dyno read 110hp. Loved the bike and was going to go all in on Victory Motorcycles. I heard rumor of Victory's demise and sold the bike at a profit. Then Victory went bye-bye.
Hi Tony from the UK ,totally agree with your sentiments victory s are unique been riding Victorys since 2009 you know the saying, if I had to explain you wouldn't understand we are a chosen few and it' feels great to be different 👍
That is muscular in a red tuxedo gorgeous. Such a pity Victory went - the bikes are around $10k up in Australia but $4k is an outrageously good deal. Thanks for the review, I often think about these bikes seeing them for sale.
It’s pretty close in speed the VTX corners better with the 180 on the rear. This has a 250 on the back although someone put a 260 on this one. It does remind me a bit of the VTX. I will say the brakes are better on the victory, which is weird considering my VTX 1800 has three piston calipers on the front. The shocks are better on the VTX 1800. I only have 3 inches of travel on the rear shock on the victory. They’re very close and they’re both intoxicating bikes.
Anyone that can slip in some Shakespeare into a bike video gets a sub and a thumbs up..:-) Parts have to be made til 2027 (ten years in the US). Victory built a bike that was easy to work on, 8 total engine gaskets, great handling, good power.
Great video bud, I just bought a Hammer S as well !

Thank you for watching!
Love got the last 2017. The dealer could find.

REALLY unfortunate what Polaris did to Victory. Here in Colorado, they've already stopped the supply of fuel pumps. 😡
I have a 14 Pearl white Vision. It's cammed all the loydz goodies, Cfr pipes. It's a joy to ride!

Truth. Thank you for watching.
Love my 16 hammer a nd vision! Great review and on point. I put a 260 metzler and is much better along with timing wheel and quarter turn.
They should have done an Indian version with 122 hp and 5 gallon tank
2009 Hammer S. Will never sell it.

Thanks for watching Sir!! Yeah, I was surprised at how very very good it was. It had me with the looks but then when I rode it, it hooked me.
I do not care! These American Bikes are the best, people just do not know quality ... I have mine, and I do not need anything else!
Cool bike!
Thanks for the video! How does it compare to the VTX 1800? Great looking bike!

Thanks for the sub! I’m gonna ride this Hammer til it dies.
Sad that Polaris killed Victory
Have one love it it's very cool looking.
