YESSSSS!!!! More Victories! I love it! Aside from all that pollen, the bike looks like it's in amazing shape! No rust that I could see, looks stock, and sounds amazing! Can't wait to see more on this one!
Awe snap! I had a conversation with you in another video Brandon about getting an Indian or Voctory. I picked up a Victory Highball about a week ago and man the ride has but been impeccable. Can't wait to see what you do to this Hanmer.
I might be wrong, but I think you have a Hammer 8-Ball, not a Hammer S. (The Hammer S usually comes with dual front brakes, non-black paint and better suspension)
those bars......wow.... not a fan but then I'm not riding it. just an FYI please do not do that to a dirty bike you can actually scratch your name or what ever else into the paint , not gonna lie I kind of cringed when you did that.
Hammer S has the XC front end with the duel callipers. Those bars are ment for a XC as they come back at you then swoop up to come out from under a fairing.. yeah and it's a 🎱 Hammer. It's probably a 2012-2015 as it has the 106ci not the 100ci that they changed over to on some models between 2009 and and 2012. How many gear has it got? 5 or 6? Sick bike would love one to go with my highball or a Magnum. Exhaust are sweeps with intake is a stage 1.. also you have great friends letting you borrow their bikes 👌🏾
If you are getting a Hammer for keeps definitely look into the Conquest Customs kits, they reduce weight and make that 250 really look amazing! Their performance parts are great too(ground pounders) and Lloyd's!!!!
Dude I LOVE the Victory Hammer. I've been wanting one for months but they're just so. Dam. Hard. To. Find! Those bars are hideous tho, that bend at the bottom lets me know they were meant for a Victory XC. Throw some drag bars with a 4" riser and you're primo. Enjoy the bike man, I know ill ride my XC for as long as possible
I believe that this bike looks better than the Gunner, but my opinion is just my opinion but I think the best looking victory bike was ever made was the boardwalk . As I said it's just an opinion. Enjoy the videos
I hate ape hanger handlebars. Especially ones with pointy things aimed at the rider. 2 into one sounds good to me. I have a few that way. 7 bikes here. 2 awaiting restos.
I could be mistaken, but I think those are the Victory Performance stage 1 exhaust. They were called the Long X Bow or something like that. Anyway, one thing Victory would use to contrast HD was that their bikes were quieter while still having an American motorcycle sound.
Felicidades, es un buen ejemplo. 319 sentadillas son unos GIRLS18.Uno muchas y un buen ejercicio. Se deja ver que hay muy buenos resultados 😍👍 Saludos desde la Cd.. de world 🌹😉💖 los mortalesc abian apreciado tan hermosa mujer.k
I think Victory was ahead of the game in a lot of ways. It's a shame they're extinct, but I'm sure Polaris is pretty happy with the success of the Indian line.
The Hammer was the V that I actually wanted as my 1st cruiser; it was 200 miles away in the 'city'. The guy rode it to his job, so we could meet. We pretty much made the deal, just needed to work out logistics and payment. (He shrunk the bike for his frame, so riding home would be an issue.) His wife finally answered his cell phone after a few days. He crashed it on his way home that day and was in the hospital in really bad shape. In '11, I found and bought '06 Vegas with about 1,100 miles at a car dealer. A week later, a Jackpot came up for sale, but I missed it by couple of days since I had stopped looking. The guy sold it to a dealer for almost nothing. I would had bought it for any of his last prices. I really loved the JP!!
I look forward to seeing the review and I feel you I like muscle bikes over bigger baggers it's just not my thing plus my wife isn't a big motorcycle fan and honestly I'm not a big two up fan so it works out for me
@@BrandonBicasso I knew something seemed Off. I was liking the hammer from the gitgo, I expect any I might find now day's would be Way over priced for me. But it alright. VERY Happy with my Roadliner.👍
I have a 2013, the only negative thing I have about it is the seat...it sucks for long rides because of the pressure on my tailbone. Otherwise lots of power and handles good for a muscle cruiser. I also owned 2 M109R's exactly like the one you have, also great bike. Great vid, cheers
Better watch out, Brandon! Victory addiction is a hard condition to break, which is a reason they are hard to find and becoming more expensive. The 106 engine is a gem in it's simplicity, performance, and reliability. I am finding it far simpler to work on than I thought. Parts are available and reasonably priced, but what makes it even better is not having to purchase them beyond standard maintenance items. But most important, I have never lost riding time because my bike was down, or I had to wait for a part. If you aren't riding your dying as far as I am concerned. Enjoy this bike in good health and keep two down!
I was literally just talking to Big Smitty Riding about my love of Victory and both of these bikes came up, mostly because of the gas tank style and headlight style. The Highball too, that thing is so bad ass looking
I like the cobra exhaust than the singles. The ape bar is overkill. All in all, I think I like gunner than the hammer. Smaller and more compact for my size, weight and frame.
It all about DAT ASS!!! Love Love love my ‘05 Hammer… The clear coat should be pretty thick and it should shine up real sweet!! The exhaust looks like the aftermarket RPW USA Slash Pipes… The bars mine came with are Victory “V” (drag) bars, love ‘em… not sure the spikey apes came stock from Victory, but who knows?? ENJOY the ride… ‘Till The Wheels Fall Off!!! 👍
Only the Hammer s has one rotor in front. My 06 Hammer has the Vbars and dual front rotors with Brembo Calipers all around. Aftermarket triple tree's raked 15degrees over stock, RMD Angry pipes. 100ci with a 114ci bigbore kit and Lloyd's 3rd generation fuel controller. My next mod is a 10" rim for the rear to switch the 250 rear tire to a 300 rear tire. And heated hand grips cause I live in New Hampshire I ride all year round. It's January 8th 2023 and I'm still riding, not just to the store but like 50 to 100miles a day. Also the Lloyd's tuner is coming out and a guy in Mass is gonna dyno tune and program the ECU. The Hammer and the Vegas are the 2 nicest style bike from Victory. For long rides I do like my 2012 Cross Country.
I'm running some homemade exhaust on a 2013 highball. Three-quarter length with turndowns at the end, and no baffles, just straight pipes. To go along with those I have a Lloyd's vfc gen 3 fuel controller. I'm not using the O2 sensors for the exhaust. The fuel controller I'm using works on an "open loop" fuel injection platform, meaning that I adjust the fuel delivery to my liking and it stays that way, just like a carburetor but with the performance of fuel injection. Edit: if you really want your bike to haul.... open up the exhaust. Also, my bike sounds rowdy as hell.
I have owned 3 Hammers and 2 Jackpots (as well as other Victorys). You cant go wrong with the 100 and 106. I had ape hangers on my Cross Country and my Cross roads. I like the Hammer with the drag bars better. Nice bike.
Thank you for your content! I have an 07 Hammer and am searching for an exhaust I like. The TBR on that Gunner is wicked, but I can't find any of their Victory stuff... any ideas? Keep doing what you do!
Simple rule.....no apes on Hammers. The Hammer is supposed to be the Victory hot rod bike, so the bars need to be low and the rider should be neutral or slightly reaching forward. IMO the stock bars were prefect.
Wow! Another Victory. They did or should I say do have some sweet looking bikes! For me doesn't matter on the bike. It's all about the ride! Hasta luego!
hello, I have a 2007 hammer and I'll tell you the winter I cleaned it and yesterday I learned it and it has a fault, it shakes and turns off, today I changed the spark plugs and cables and nothing.
I’m a Harley guy. Not one of those guys that thinks Harley is the best and everything else sucks. All motorcycles are awesome. I’m glad I ran into this channel. Really cool to see good content and it isn’t Harley bikes only. Thanks man for the great videos.
I'm excited for more of the hammer content. I've been a fan of the Victory's since mid 2000's. Still haven't bought one. Definitely not ruling out a future purchase.
It’s Hammer time! 😂 ok I had to get that out. Another sexy bike, those bars are too tall for what I would consider comfortable though. Looking forward to seeing that all polished up. (That hooked on touring motorcycle problem is one I suffer willingly and happily through as well.. we need a support group haha)
Bro Im soooooo pumped for you!!!! I own a Victory Vegas as well as a Cross Country, both are phenomenal bikes!! That Hammer looks almost identical to my Vegas, same bars and same exhaust, I think it both looks and sounds great. Yeah ape hangers arent for everyone, Im 5'10" with a pretty long reach and I really dig the apes. Cant wait for more videos with this bike ✌️
Brings back fond memories of my Kingpin. Loved ripping on it after Lloydz cam, tune, trask exhaust. Shop, somehow, put a set of Victory hard bags on for me and it was awesome for long trips… until my aging body pains couldn’t take lack of wind protection anymore. Upgraded to a bike with a fairing and cam upgrade. (Can’t help but love torque). Blessed to have ridden across the country on it!
Nice ride! Again, not a fan of such high bars, but to each his own. Just speaking for myself, the bars would have to be about 6" lower, maybe more, for my liking. But in any case, it's a great looking scoot!
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the Hammer. I'm interested in getting an OCTANE. If you happen to get your hands on one of those I would love to hear your review. Happy riding.
I love my Hammer 8-Ball, I’m really looking forward to seeing how you get on with yours. The handlebars aren’t my taste, to be honest, I prefer my stock bars, but those pipes sound so good. Enjoy your lovely bike mate!
At the time I heard Victory was closing shop, I actually preferred Victory's style over Indian. But style is subjective and apparently consumers felt differently. Glad to see a little departure though from filled in fenders and tassels on seats and bags to more modern offerings. Alghough the nostalgic look has won me over the past few years. Enjoy the new addition Brandon!
Loving the Victory series. How much time do you spend looking around for bikes? Between the chief, victories, and everything else that must take a good chunk of time.
I spend an hour or two a week checking out what’s available. It’s fun because I end up visualizing all the fixing and parts needed to get them back on the road.
Brandon , I used to ride Victory bikes for years my favorite was the Hammer and Cross Country , I sold the Cross Country in favor of the Indian Chieftain and just recently sold the Hammer and purchased and 2012 Triumph Thunderbird Storm the Hammer was blast to ride but compared to the Thunderbird its no contest that Triumph is hands down the best Muscle bike to ride , the torque of that 1700 cc parallel Twin is AWESOME in all 6 gears . If you know of someone who has a Thunderbird or come to Florida and ride mine , give a spin you wont be disappointed .
@@BrandonBicasso I’ve been following you for yrs don’t know how I missed that, I have no idea which I’m going to get after I get home from this deployment the triumph bobber or the scout bobber 😩 love the sportster s also but the mark ups I’m seeing on that are ridiculous when I can get either one of these used for 9k
@@SwagSo7fly7 Yeeeah, it all depends on what kind of riding you wanna do. I think the Scout goes further with traveling potential. The Triumph is great for around the town bar hopping though. Need to get my hands on another.
the exhaust on this bike is called a X-bow exhaust. It was a upgrade exhaust that victory made, it also came with a tune on the ecm and a better air filter that flowed more air. The baffles in the X-bow exhaust were still restrictive, lots of people removed them. You can just look up inside the tailpipes to see if your bike still has them. I have same exhaust but removed the factory baffles and installed big city thunder QQ baffles. Love the way they made it sound.
Correction! This is a Hammer 8-Ball and not the Hammer S. Thanks for correcting me, everyone. A lot makes sense now. 🥴
Yeah that would make more sense as I personally own an s model which has the dual brembo brakes up front, and duel gauge cluster for rpm and speed
This is what I'm talking about!! th-cam.com/video/KNqdBz2fxlg/w-d-xo.html
OMG!! Seriously?!?!? Nobody else is gunna say it???? Guess it’s up to me? IT’s HAMMER TIME BABY!!!
Stop.
Hammer time.
Brandon, Honestly I wish Polaris would’ve kept Victory around as their entry level Motorcycle or for Racing. Would’ve made sense.
Totally agree! Love the Victory cruisers and that 106 is a good motor!
They kept ugly ass Indian
I love that you do a fair amount of Victory videos. There aren't a lot of them out there. ✊️
YESSSSS!!!! More Victories! I love it! Aside from all that pollen, the bike looks like it's in amazing shape! No rust that I could see, looks stock, and sounds amazing! Can't wait to see more on this one!

It’ll be paint corrected. The swirls already in the paint are far worse than what I’ve done. 👍🏾 I’ll be doing it again so fair warning.
The exhaust was a factory accessory option. It's the same one I had on my Victory Vegas (except those were chrome).

Yep! I’m wrong. Thanks for correcting me.

Yes the seat is way to stiff
I just bought a 2010 victory cross roads so far (2short rides due to weather) loving it. Would love to see more victory bikes

Oh that is a good looking ride!

Love this bike. It needs to come back rebadged!
Being an owner of a 2016 Hammer S (and as you mentioned in the comment your bike is the 8-Ball) those handlebars ruin the balance and handling.
It absolutely sucks to ride with this set up. I never look forward to riding it because of those bars and it being lowered.

Also what is "onest"?
I have the 2015 hammer 8 ball. I want to put those bars on mine
