  1. Ponch you have our Prayers. May God Bless and Heal you very fast!!! Just heard about what happen, so, so sorry. Just Heal brother, your Friend-James & Charlene
  2. Appreciate the Great People on this site, even when they poke fun it is all in good humor. On the Victory Site, no humor, even the Administrator is a azzhole, it reminds me of a bunch of old school Harley Riders where anything but their bike and opinion does not count. The Cross Country is a nice bike, one guy on their said that on the highway the bike has a buzzing sound from the fairing. Took a five mile ride on one but they sent a chaperone with me, he realized he better just keep up, but not far enough to notice a buzzing sound. 2nd gear did seem a bit chunky, slow start, but then it moves out. Did like the gauges, but it was missing a 8-Track or Cassette Player. Later-
  3. Hey All, road the Cross Country (XC on the Victory Forum), and was actually considering buying one. It has alot of power, and very smooth, almost like the RSV. Could not work out a deal for Trade In with my H-D,( low ball artist). One of my Worries is the simple fact that within 125 Miles of me 3 of 5 Victory Dealers have gone out of Business. From what I read on the Victory Forum is the Warranty is different from Canada to USA, so if you bought your bike in the USA and happen to be in Canada, they Will Not fix it. Also, you Have to take a Victory back to the Dealer you bought it from for Repairs, other Dealers Will Not honor the Warranty. So at least with my H-D or RSV you can take your newer bike to any Dealer and they will Fix it under Warranty. I did like the low center of gravity and it was quick. Nice bike, but Victory needs to work things out with their Dealers before I buy one. Later-
  4. Hey All, went downstate to a Family Reunion and seen two different RSV's. Both bikes were Black Beauties, and looked nice. Sure made me miss my 03 RSV "Sweet Thing". After riding the Heritage this year I realize how little it is compaired to the massive and comfortable the RSV. So consider yourselves Lucky. Hope to see you all sometime soon. Later-
  5. Hey All, went on a couple rides last weekend, put on about 550 miles on the Heritage. On a Group Ride yesturday of 300 miles we stopped at a DQ. One of riders asked Charlene and I how we liked the Heritage: Charlene said, No Room to move around, so tight I won't go anywhere. I said, "To be Honest, it is no Yamaha Venture". I could ride all day on the RSV, but after a 100 miles I am sore on the Heritage. Even put a signature series seat on the Heritage, but no help. With my back problems the weight of the Heritage is all I can handle, especially two up. Now don't get me wrong the Heritage has a lot of nice features, and the 105 year edition is a beautiful bike. But, I have always said the RSV is the best bike I have ever owned! Guess it is, what it is, but Sadly miss my "Sweet Thing" RSV. Later-
  6. Hey, wish I could be there this year, but it is not happening, You all are the Greatest Group of Riders there is! Later-
  7. Hey Freebird, Love to come to that party again. What a good time. If I do it won't be on the 03 RSV, because it has a new owner-Old School. Let me tell you, I miss my "Sweet Thing"!!! But still hoping to come if affordable. Son getting married this weekend. Our Anniversary next week. Well, let me say, the money thing would be tight. But have no fear I still have the camping gear, and lots of asprin for in the morning. Hope to see you soon, Later- P.S. Hey, were is Squidley in this conversation .
  8. Thank You Brad for putting the route Ray is taking. We are playing phone tag, but it sounds like he is making good time and enjoying the new RSV. Later-
  9. Hey All, my "Sweet Thing" has found a new owner, and home in TX. Yesturday Evening, Old School heading back home to TX from Northern Michigan. I will miss that Beautiful 03 RSV. Best Motorcycle I have ever owned!!! I know Ray wouldn't ask, but ...he has a long way to go, and is tight on time and money. A stayover at one of our members might help him out. It would also be great if some VR members jumped on their bikes and rode with him a bit. Later-
  10. Hey Dennis, hope the 07 RSV sells quick for you. I have been trying to sell or basically give away my 03 RSV for awhile, just a tough market right now. I would almost sell the trailer seperate, because like on my bike, the thousands I have in Accessories does not mean anything. Good Luck, with whatever you ride, always welcome here. Later-
  11. Steve, Our Thoughts and Prayers are for your Family! We all hope they find her safe and well!
  12. Hey, yes like many here, I also own a second bike. Love them both! The RSV is the smoothest and Best bike I have ever owned. But, the Harley is easier for me to handle with my back problems. Each one has their own special advantages. It will be a sad day when I sell my RSV (give someone a great deal), but unfortuantly I can only afford one at this time. Later-
  13. Enjoy it before you get to Old to Remember. wait a minute, what was I supposed to do next
  14. Hey All, as a PGR member I have not had to deal with any of the protesters, only very appreciative familys. I do get choked up at times, well inside just about everytime, but not sure if I would enjoy the protesters to well. The more PGR members there is at an event the better you can control a situation, like having a group of PGR members by the doors and close to the greaving family, and enough PGR members at the perimature to keep Protesters at bay. Thanks to all our Vets. Later-

    Sold

    Nope, I'm not telling either Freebird. You didn't sell your bike on that canadian site did you Brad, lol. Congrads, Later-
  16. Hunting and looking for more chrome
  17. Thanks, Carl, Dan, Charlie, Jack, Silver T. I didn't feel milage on selling the RSV was a big concern, but in today's buyers market as Jack said the timing is everything. It did get me wondering when I looked at the second gens for sale on our site. Still love my RSV, best bike I have ever owned. Later-
  18. Hey All, for a bit I have had my RSV listed and paying attention to the ones that has sold. I just looked today at the four second generations that have not sold, and all have at least 40k + in miles. All four are a very good price, lots of accessories, too me, they all should have sold already. Which leads me to this question: You guys feel that a RSV with 40k+ miles really scares someone to buy ? Just Wondering, Later-
  19. Hey Karl, I grew up on Leland where that 73 year old lady was killed by the 14 and 16 year old. They both are going to be tried as adults. She was on the 800 block, I lived on the 500 block, still have two brothers there. As a kid I mowed alot of lawns and shoveled snow on those streets, was a nice place to live then. Glad I moved north 12 years ago. Later-
  20. Brad it has to be for the RSV, because Charlie couldn't catch fish even in Freebirds pond. He tried to catch them and put em in his trailer, but only put watered down beer. Later-
