The Rest of the 2016 Victory Motorcycles Lineup

Victory announced no new cruiser or bagger models for 2016; changes to existing models appear to be minimal, and cosmetic in nature. The two Vegas lines sport new wheels - Victory calls them the "Falchion", after a particular variety of sword - and they make for a welcome aesthetic change from the previous spiral design wheels on both bikes. One addition to Victory's cruiser line: the Hammer S, a variant of the venerable Hammer. Victory is marketing it as the "modern American muscle cruiser"; it's a great-looking bike with a new red and black color scheme, and performance should be upped a bit by the addition of a Cobra 2-into-1 exhaust.

As they've done in the past, Victory is scaling back the total number of bikes being offered. Gone this year is the Ness Magnum - which, to be fair, was sold as a limited edition bike.
