With the apparent successful introduction of Indian now behind them, what do you suppose Polaris has planned for the Victory brand? Victory after all was designed to go head to head in the market with HD but never quite caught fire the way they expected. They are competent bikes and well liked by the press but they didn't "move the soul" as the HD brand does. In an attempt to "move the soul" of more buyers, the Indian brand was purchased and resurrected to the unanimous acclaim of the motorsport press. Perhaps now HD will have a viable US competitor... time will tell. But, where does that leave Victory? The Victory's compete for the same buyer as HD and now Indian so that market is even more diluted. Do you think the folks at Polaris will go out on a limb and recreate the Victory brand as a competitor the Asian/European bikes? My best guess is yes, or allow Victory to fade off into the sunset. Your thoughts?
