    Safety About the Owner's Manual WARNING Failure to follow recommended precautions and procedures could result in severe injury or death. Always heed all safety precautions and follow all operation, inspection and maintenance procedures outlined in this manual. Please read your VICTORY owner’s manual. This manual contains information essential to safe riding and proper maintenance of the motorcycle.
  • Page 11 Safety Safety Terms and Signal Words The following signal words and symbols appear throughout this manual and on your vehicle. Your safety and the safety of others is involved when these words and symbols are used. Become familiar with their meanings before reading the manual.
  • Page 12: Safe Riding Practices

    Safety Safe Riding Practices WARNING Improper use of this motorcycle can result in serious injury or death to you, your passenger and others. To minimize the risk of injury, read and understand the information contained in this section before operating the motorcycle. This section contains safety information specific to the VICTORY motorcycle, as well as information about general motorcycle safety.
  • Page 13 Safety Safe Riding Practices Design characteristics affect how you should ride the VICTORY motorcycle. • The motorcycle is designed for on-road use with one rider and one passenger. See page 14. • Do not exceed the gross vehicle weight rating (see the specifications section beginning on page 150 or the certifica- tion label on the steering head).
  • Page 14 Safety Safe Riding Practices Follow these general safe riding practices: • Before each ride, perform the pre-ride inspections. See page 45. Failure to do so may result in damage to the motor- cycle or an accident. • Follow all break-in procedures during the first 500 miles (800 km) of operation. See page 59. Failure to do so can result in serious engine damage.
  • Page 15 Safety Safe Riding Practices • Ride defensively, as if you are invisible to other motorists, even in broad daylight. A motorist's failure to see or rec- ognize a motorcycle is the leading cause of automobile/motorcycle accidents. Ride where you're clearly visible to other motorists, and observe their behavior carefully.
  • Page 16 Safety Safe Riding Practices • Reduce speed when: - the weather is windy, rainy or otherwise causing slippery or rapidly changing conditions. - traffic is heavy, congested, not allowing sufficient space between vehicles or otherwise not flowing smoothly. - you are being passed in either direction by a large vehicle that produces a wind blast in its wake. •...
  • Page 17 Safety Safe Riding Practices • When approaching a curve, choose a speed and lean angle that allows you to pass through the curve in your own lane without applying the brakes. Excessive speed, improper lean angle or braking in a curve can cause loss of con- trol.
  • Page 18: Carrying A Passenger

    Safety Safe Riding Practices Carrying a Passenger Do not carry a passenger unless the motorcycle is equipped with passenger seat and passenger footrests. To carry a passenger safely: • Do not exceed the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) for your motorcycle. •...
  • Page 19: Protective Apparel

    Safety Safe Riding Practices Protective Apparel Wear protective apparel to decrease the risk of injury and increase riding comfort. • Always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds established safety standards. Approved helmets in the USA and Can- ada bear a U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) label. Laws in some areas require that you wear an approved helmet.
  • Page 20 Safety Safe Riding Practices Protective Apparel • All riders should wear bright or light-colored and/or reflective clothing to improve visibility to other motorists. A motorist's failure to see or recognize a motorcycle is the leading cause of automobile/motorcycle accidents. • Wear gloves, a jacket, heavy boots and long pants to prevent or reduce injury from abrasions, lacerations or burns should the motorcycle fall.
  • Page 21 Safety Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) WARNING! Exceeding the gross vehicle weight rating of your motorcycle can reduce stability and handling and could cause loss of control. NEVER exceed the GVWR of your motorcycle. The maximum load capacity of your motorcycle is the maximum weight you may add to your motorcycle without exceeding the GVWR.
  • Page 22: Carrying Cargo

    Safety Carrying Cargo Use the following guidelines when attaching cargo or accessories to the motorcycle. Where applicable, these guide- lines also refer to the contents of any accessories. • Keep cargo and accessory weight to a minimum, and keep items as close to the motorcycle as possible to minimize a change in the motorcycle's center of gravity.
  • Page 23: Parking The Motorcycle

    Safety Carrying Cargo Saddlebags When operating a motorcycle with original equipment or accessory saddlebags: • Never ride at speeds exceeding 80 mph (120 km/h). Depending on load and weather conditions, the maximum safe operating speed may be less. Saddlebags, combined with the lifting or buffeting effects of wind, can make the motorcycle unstable and cause loss of control.

  • Page 64 Operation Engine Break-in Period NOTICE: If engine trouble should occur during the engine break-in period, consult the maintenance section of the Owner's Manual, the VICTORY Service Manual, or an authorized VICTORY dealer immediately. Failure to perform the initial maintenance as recommended could result in less than desirable engine performance in the future.
  • Page 65 Operation Engine Break-in Period Fueling and Fill Height Always heed the fuel warnings on page 22. Always refuel on level ground with the sidestand down. Use only the rec- ommended fuel. See page 154. Fill the fuel tank to a level just below the bottom of the fuel filler insert. WARNING! Overflows or spilled gasoline could contact a hot engine or exhaust system and cause a fire, which could result in serious injury or death.
  • Page 66 Operation Engine Break-in Period Starting the Engine The starter interlock system allows the engine to be started only when the transmission is in neutral, or when the transmission is in gear with the clutch disengaged (clutch lever pulled in). Tip: If the motorcycle runs out of fuel, prime the system before attempting to restart the engine. See page 61. 1.
  • Page 67: Starting The Engine

    Operation Engine Break-in Period Starting the Engine CAUTION! Do not rev the engine or put the transmission in gear immediately after starting the engine. Allow the engine to idle for about one minute after a cold start, or 30 seconds after a warm start, to allow the oil to reach all areas requiring lubrication before the engine is put under load.
  • Page 68: Shifting Gears

    Operation Shifting Gears WARNING! Forced shifting (with clutch engaged) could cause damage to the engine, transmission and drive train. Such damage could cause loss of control, which could result in serious injury or death. Always pull the clutch lever fully toward the handlebars to disengage the clutch before shifting gears.
  • Page 69 Operation Shifting Gears 5. Release the brake lever. 6. Simultaneously release the clutch lever while opening the throttle (rolling the throttle control grip rearward) with a smooth motion.

The more quickly you open the throttle, the more quickly the motorcycle accelerates. For even acceleration, open the throttle with a smooth, continuous motion. When you reach the recommended speed for upshifting, shift up one gear. See page 64. WARNING! Accelerating abruptly could cause your body to shift rearward suddenly, which could result in loss of control.
  • Page 72: Stopping The Engine

    Operation Stopping the Engine Before stopping the engine, bring the motorcycle to a complete stop. Shift to neutral or disengage the clutch. WARNING! Stopping the engine with the transmission in gear while the motorcycle is moving could cause loss of rear wheel traction or engine and transmission damage, which could cause loss of control and serious injury or death.
  • Page 73 Operation Parking the Motorcycle Choose a firm level surface to park the motorcycle. 1. When fully stopped, shift into neutral. 2. Stop the engine. 3. Fully extend the sidestand. 4.
