I am a beginner ,I mean green as can be just got my permit I am 40ish and love the Victory Octane ,here's the thing my left hand is toast to many hockey fights and making a closed fist for awhile isn't a good feeling. With that can that bike be turned into automatic? Rekluse or EFM trans be put into it? you guys are the best..

Great sounding bike Shaun. I know you told me quite a while ago that those roadworks were for a bridge extension, but it’s been there for so long that I’m wondering if it’s going to be a ‘Construction Theme Park ‘. Thanks again for the video. Regards, Bob M. South Wales

Ah. Redemption. Thanks for bringing the Oct front stage. Now I can ride (or die), in peace. I'm have paused this... I'm gonna make me a nice drink and watch the rest. I need another Octane, one for riding, one for storage. And a crashed one.....for parts, lol. If u ever come across a vmax2018... i may be your guy, BTW. Peace!

I own 3 victories all bought new. I have been with them from almost the start. They always took the other path and stayed on the cutting edge. New models evolved for the better. Unfortunately I feel this lead to Victories demise. Polaris corporate mentality, "hey let's totally scrap a great company and product line, that everyone loves, so maybe by starting another, it will do better". All I can say is, LOL !!! : ( Appreciate you showcasing them though.

Indian should bring back the octane for their sports cruiser range. To rival the vrods and fxdr etc. give it a 19” front and a 160-180 rear. Rake it out a little. I think they would be a big hit

Im sure that would look great. Look up project 156. Limo ride was never the point of this bike from what I’ve read and from owning one. It handles like a much lighter bike. I always thought that fat tire would sit well on one too. Idk… having ridden one for awhile now, i think you would lose so much of what the bike is capable of. Still… it would be a mean ride and A to B would still be pretty fast. I might be ready for the chip now. Definitely wasn’t at first. Sweet Jesus!

Used to have this bike in white and had all the crap for it like the oem saddle bags and rpm gauge crash bars etc. Came off a 01 R1 and I can def say it's was pretty quick and super flickable. I did get rid of it for a Stryker. Just felt the bike was a lil too small and I'm 5'9 and the SOB would heat so much. Not cooling issues per say just would output so much heat and it's def something to keep in mind. It is a great bike and quick

No speedo to blur out.

A nice trim, slim bike. Wouldn't have it in all-black if there was another colour to be had. And not silly money! Result!👍😎

Did you buy that one on Amazon too?

Very cool! Coming from a sportster owner

My biggest worry about buying a bike like that and probably the reason they're so cheap is parts are going to be really hard to find and expensive for a bike that was only built for a year before the manufacturer closed down.

Does it not have a speedometer?

Need the stage one exhaust or it sounds like a pooch. Mine sounds sick, like a drag car

A blast to ride

Love my Victory Hammer 250 rear tire and 100 hp and 100ci

Victory had it going on. I loved the Octane and 8 ball. So sad they dropped out but hopefully they can become part of the Indian Heritage. In my eyes, Victory decided the name "Indian" would give them more credit in the bike world. IDK about that. I never wanted a Harley or an old Indian but I did want a burn out Octane! I felt a loss when Victory shut their owners and us riders out only offering Indian.

I like it, but...wheres the instrument panel

I agree with Nick. The Harleys are so big and bulky while the response on this bike is beyond amazing for a sport cruiser. Between corners and traffic and near misses, its done everything I’ve ever asked of it except break 140. 😸 The light front end… I’ve felt that. I’ve felt it get wobbly. I realized it was because i was holding on so tight and i the bike was pulling away from underneath me. I now know to lean in much further and use my legs to help hang on. The bike will stay straight and on the ground if you don’t interfere too much. However, if you want a big limo with the thick bars the this ain’t the beast. You’re looking for a bear. This is more like a velociraptor. 😁
