I road a victory a couple of months ago.
It was a very nice bike. I road the bagger with the batwing
They had a used one that was just a grand cheaper than a brand new vaquero.
That was pretty much a deal breaker LOL

If it's an '09 or newer touring model, it has the redesigned frame.

+ stock 103 c.i. ('06 was a 96 c.i.?) + 6 speed + improved fuel mileage + counter balanced crank shaft + they addressed some of the cooling issues. "Grace" is still my #1 pick and she's paid for. If I get in the market for a new one, I'll look at everything available. That's how I got the Nomad.

Harley 103", pipes, fuel processor and screamin eagle intake compared to Nomad 95", pipes, fuel processor and single intake are equal in accelloration. The Harley will out pull it on top end and it will get better fuel milage at high speed (70-100 mph) cruising. The comparison my buddy and I did on these two bikes were; 60mph cruising..same fuel consumption...100mph cruising..the Nomad drank 1 u.s. gal more for the same mileage.The difference was the Harley is a 6 speed.
