Miles Posted May 12, 2013 Share #4 Posted May 12, 2013 Rick, buying a new bike is a pretty lousy excuse for not attending the Great Pacific Northwest Meet & Eat, especially when you did not bring the new bike home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL... well to be honest, I really had not planned on making a deal today .. or for that matter, at all coz I really thought the warden would not go along with my "wish" .... but to my surprise, she loved the bike and the ride and then it was a done deal! Aside from that, we no sooner got home this afternoon and it started rainng... HEAVY ... and we both imagined had we attended the M&E and came back today... about that time we'd be sitting in an hour long lineup at the border getting soaked. Hope y'all had a great time tho!

Red Ryder Posted May 12, 2013 Share #13 Posted May 12, 2013 Congrads, on the CCT. After selling the RSV, to a new Friend "Old School", I looked at the CCT, but could not make a Deal at any Dealers for a Trade with the 08 H-D Heritage. Finally sold the Heritage, but bought a 08 H-D Ultra, 105th Anniversary Edition. Beautiful Looking and Sounding Bike. Harley has made some very good improvements, but the wife and I still miss the power of the RSV. The CCT is like a upgraded RSV to me, but only not liquid cooled. If I could afford it I would own my Ultra, a RSTD, and CCT. That would be a Complete Garage. Later- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I could afford it I would own my Ultra, a RSTD, and CCT. That would be a Complete Garage. Later- I've seriously looked at the Ultra for several years and almost bought one when the 2009 model came out but at the time I couldn't financially justify the expense so I bought the RSMV. In hindsight I probably should have done it but, all things work out the way they are meant to. I've been looking at these CCT's for a couple years now, have done a lot of research, and have demo'd them 5 different times over those 2 years ... and it took some number crunching to convince myself that I could swing it ... and we did! This will no doubt be the last motorcycle I will ever purchase (unless I win the lotto LOL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tx2sturgis Posted May 12, 2013 Share #18 Posted May 12, 2013 I love the Victory CCT...If my RSV ever got wrecked, stolen, or whatever, my next road bike would have to be that one. Rode a couple of Vics, and that is my favorite. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Posted May 12, 2013 Share #19 Posted May 12, 2013 Brian, please do not be encouraging this wanker from B.C. The only REAL reason he bought a Victory CCT is because he has an overstock of tires for his Goldwing 1800, and the Victory CCT takes the exact same size and brand of tires he is used to running. His thought...why let good tires go to waste? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tx2sturgis Posted May 12, 2013 Share #21 Posted May 12, 2013 and the Victory CCT takes the exact same size and brand of tires he is used to running. His thought...why let good tires go to waste? I bet it uses the same kind of liquid gasoline, the same brand of air for the tires, and the same glass 1157 bulbs.... Now thats smart!

slowrollwv Posted May 12, 2013 Share #22 Posted May 12, 2013 I bet it uses the same kind of gasoline, the same brand of air for the tires, and the same 1157 bulbs.... Now thats smart! You forgot to mention the same OIL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tx2sturgis Posted May 12, 2013 Share #23 Posted May 12, 2013 You forgot to mention the same OIL. Well, I knew the oil was different and he might have to go buy a gallon of 'V-Twin' oil... That's VERY special oil, made for 2 cylinders...so it will only lubricate 2 of the six cylinders in a GoldThing. Dontcha kno nuttin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, a lot of Vic owners are running Rotella T6 and various other flavors of syn oil such as Amsoil 10-40. I've even had some discussions with a couple guys who're runnig a C/T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the lights are LED with exception of headlight which is halogen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
