Well start off with the most accessible Victory in terms of price and size when it comes to fitting most women.
The Vegas 8-Ball, priced at $13,999, is a blacked out version of the Vegas, making it about $1,800 cheaper than the Vegas. It has a solo seat and minimalist styling. The 26.5-inch seat height accentuates the low center of gravity feeling of this motorcycle. Its a slim and nimble bike that zips around corners.
Ergonomics and performance are the same as the Vegas, but there is no sixth gear on the 8-Ball. The 100 cubic inch Freedom V-Twin motor with electronic fuel injection powers the bike. New features for 2007 include subtle changes like the swingarm and strut covers now have engine black paint, and black wheels are standard. Plus, there are 197 Vegas accessories that fit the 8-Ball.
Vegas
For $15,799 you get a solid cruiser loaded with custom accents. The Vegas provides a smooth ride powered by the 1634cc Freedom V-Twin motor with sixth gear overdrive. A lot of women love this motorcycle because it handles so easily without sacrificing power or style. You get it all with the Vegas.

Vegas Jackpot
The mega, supped up version of the Vegas is the Jackpot boasting a fat 250mm tire, flashy graphics, and a raked front end. This is a visually stunning motorcycle, but that 250mm tire is not recommend for non-experienced riders. Its a lot of motorcycle to handle. It comes in six eye-catching color combinations and boasts 152 accessories including a two-up touring seat with backrest. Youll pay $17,499 for this beauty.
Kingpin
