Victory’s new Magnum touring bike is a spinoff of the existing Cross Country and features a 21-inch front wheel that can’t be ignored, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. I’ll give you a second to pick up your jaw off the floor… This factory custom comes equipped with a long list of unique features and can be further accessorized so you can take it another few notches up the crazy ladder!Not about to apologize for causing a scene, the Magnum is Victory’s effort to redefine the factory bagger class and probably reach out to a new audience at the same time.
Suspension has been lowered by an inch and the seat is lowered accordingly to give the bike a cooler stance while still offering a nimble ride and proper cornering abilities. Since the Magnum uses the same basic configuration as the Victory Cross Country, you can expect fast handling, a stable and predictable ride, and comfort in spades for your long-haul adventures.
Aside from the spectacular 21-inch cast alloy front wheel with its tightly contoured and styled fender, the Magnum uses a bright LED lighting that’s housed in the sharp-lined fairing. All these elements are combined to produce a contemporary, cutting-edge styling and vibe. We dig the painted inner instrument panel to match the fairing.Power (loads of it) comes in the form of the now familiar 106-inch Freedom V-twin engine and 6-speed overdrive transmission. If you ever get tired of listening to the throbbing tunes delivered by the Victory engine, you can crank your favorite music through the factory 100-Watt sound system while you whizz by and blind people with the three-tone paint scheme.
Hey, we’re off to Sturgis, where we’ll be riding the Magnum in a few days time, so stick around for a detailed report coming some time next week on Bikernet and Bikernet Baggers. Ride safe and have a blast!
