my victory kingpin was also water cooled and never had a problem, but as far as the indian goes it is a matter of taste, i know a couple of people that have them but the fenders on the bike just don't do it for me

I was also at the show today from 10am to 3pm.Good show.The F3 for me not impressed.I thought maybe I made a mistake getting a 2014 RTS 4 months ago but that went out the window after seeing the F3.Yes nice for BRP but not for me.Then the other toy I wanted to see :roflblack: how does a 6' 2" 275 guy get in the Slingshot..........HE DOESN'T :banghead: Overall good show with all the other bikes and gadgets to see.My top pick goes to the 2015 Indian Scout nice bike if you like 2 wheels.

wasn't at the show this weekend, but did manage to get in and out of a slingshot at waite powersports in adams cnter ny. i'm 5'10"(255#'s) and after trying it one way and then doing it the right way, I had no problem at all. step into it with two feet and then sit down. reverse the procedure and step out.:thumbup:

As a Victory owner...

Victory has never had a water cooled motor. I had a 2004 Kingpin and it was oil cooled with a big old oil cooler on it. It's sump held six quarts of oil!!! Now my 2012 Cross Country (also oil cooled) only holds four and a half quarts of oil. The Kingpin had a 92 cubic inch motor with a five speed tranny while my Cross Country has a 106 cubic inch motor with a six speed overdrive transmission.

Didn't they have a catchy name for it?
Something like, "Dual-cooled"? :dontknow:

 

[arntufun]

This is great................ judging by the posts, the _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ stole the show !!!!!!:firstplace:

Actually; most of us were just trying to figure out how to get our overfed and over-aged butts into it, without looking like the back-end of a baboon! :shocked:

The Kawasaki H2 always had a crowd around it... :bowdown:
I was amazed at how many folks wondered how they could sell the H2R as legal for the street...
(It's not: the race slick and $50,000 price tag kind of tell the tale. )

so than i am corrected, my victory was oil cooled ??? i sure thought it was water cooled. but now that you mention it i had the oil cooler between the front frame pipes, i remember that because i bought a chrome cover for it. i also took the air box out and put the K&N kit in it to open that space up for more air flow.

Did you guys notice that winsome young Lass who was taking the pictures with her I-Pad at the Indian Booth?
You know; the one with fluid drive, and painted on pants... :bowdown:
I told the Missus that we should adopt her...
I think that I might have some vision back in my eye by next weekend! :shocked:

How about the 4 models that came out for the Indian photo shoot around 2-2:30pm!
I could feel the wife's stare burning right through me as I tried not to look!
