Posts: 256 Florida | Great Story, but I guess the paint guy was on vacation during the initial saddlebag paint jobs. Nonetheless, we can all take pride in a truly Made in the USA product. With so much outsourcing these days, I make it a rule to Buy American when possibly. My car is American and so is my Bike. Wouldn't it be nice if we could buy American TVs these days? |

Posts: 57 Twin Cities, MN | It was nice to read about our beloved machines from a little different point of view.
I hope to tour the plant this summer. The local Victory Riders group sponsers rides to both facilities. (Oceola, WI for the engine plant and Spirit Lake, IA for the assembly)
It hit 50 today in Minneapolis and I got out for a quick spin. The salty puddles are my biggest worry.
I'll be washing it down good... |
