I was surprised to see/hear this. As many of you know, Polaris owns Victory too.

Yah, me too. I just finished reading it in the"newsfeed" section.

Could be a really good move for them. Victories for the newer look and Indians for the classic old school look. I own a couple of tractors(HD's) myself, but serious competition from from another american maker would do the motor company some good in my opinion.

"enhanced by the quality and performance for which Polaris and Victory are known."

HAHAHAHAHAHA THATS A GOOD ONE

If I had to say two things that Polaris isn't known for, quality and performance would be it. Under performing and unreliable is more like it.

Sounds like they will truly be really competing for the Harley market share :rofl_200:

I thought Victories were pretty good bikes?

Im surprised to hear otherwise.

In my experience, every machine that says "polaris" anywhere on it has been a phenomenal POS. Namely, unreliable and cheaply built. I've had so many "bad experiences" with Polaris products (quads/sleds) I will never even consider buying one.
