Wait a minute. The Victory doesn't have traction control?
I don't know if I could spend all that money on a new Touring bike and not have traction control. That is like buying a New touring bike without cruise control, or without a powered windshield, or a head light that doesn't shine around the curves. Nope just wouldn't do it. When I do buy my next bike it will have traction control and all of the above plus more. I wonder if there is such a bike on the market now? http://byo.bmwmotorcycles.com/16GL#model-info

Yes I did Dave! I can spin the rear tire in first just by snapping the throttle on quickly.

With partial integral brakes, a rider really only needs to use the front brake lever to stop. I rarely use my rear brake by itself. The new bikes have hill start control too.

That doesn't even sound like a motorcycle anymore. Might just as well buy a convertible.
