Road Test: Victory Hammer
By Mark Shippey on 27/04/2008 20:20:42
A new engine, an overdrive and the fattest rear tyre in biking-dom. Will Victory's Hammer be able to wrestle the performance cruiser crown from our home-grown Rocket III?
Victory motorcycles appear, riders blipping throttles as the deep whup-whup of the engines reverberates in the air. One bike is an Arlen Ness Kingpin special, the other a new Victory Hammer.Sorry to rub it in, but that was me on the brand new Hammer

Pistonheads: Cruiser Face-off
By Ben Miller on 20/10/2010 10:32:55
The V-Rod muscle is Harley’s fastest bike yet, a slick, drag bike with sportsbike-chasing power. In the blue corner Victory’s 1731cc Hammer S is all about oil tanker presence and the grunt to shift cities. How do you like your power cruiser kicks?
with little else but doodles of the Victory – she’s real pretty, see – and countless attempts at capturing the sonic fury of its Victory Performance pipe in words. None come close.More than any other bike I’ve ever written about, I wish this collection

STOP! Hammertime
By Ben Cope on 23/07/2009 16:24:34
On the surface of it, it doesn't look like a great bike for commuting, but...
Victory have kindly leant us a Victory Hammer S and I've been riding it this week. I'd ridden one last year but only briefly and it left a great impression. I was racing a guy on a Z1000 through London and was so impressed with the ease at which you

First Ride: Victory Jackpot
By Mark Shippey on 08/05/2008 22:03:19
The Jackpot is Victory's latest gambit - a bold move into premium custom territory. So is it likely to fold, or will it be straight flush with success?
comes from the Victory Vegas. Just the thought of the disparity in sizes made me wince. Within minutes though, I'd forgotten my fears. Where the Vegas initially felt vague and the Hammer steered slowly, the fat/thin combo on the Jackpot works. Okay, so
