One thing nobody has touched on is resale value. From what I can see, if I were to buy one, I'd find a good late-model low-mileage bike and let someone else take the depreciation hit. Their resale value drops like a rock IMO.

I rented a Kingpin one afternoon circa 2003 when a friend from out of town was visiting with bike and my BMW wasn't running...I was really surprised at just what a great bike the Victory was, and honestly the cruiser-ergonomics was my only real complaint. My friend was riding an R1150RT and he said that I was leaving him at the stops...but the bike didn't feel all that fast to me, maybe due to the low seating position or something.
Bikeless for now...but not forever!
