What bike?

Motorcycling

I was coming back from Wales last weekend and at the petrol station in Llangorse, I saw a lovely looking bike and committed the name on the side of it to memory to look it up when I got back. I have promptly forgotten the bloody thing.

Bit of a long shot, it was a cruiser, about the size and shape of a Sportster, it was jet black with low slung pipes on the right hand side in matt black. The wheels were also shaped design rather than spokes kind of large machined shaped. I think the name of the bike began with a ‘V’. It was a newish bike about an 08 plate? Any thoughts? Long shot I know.

In reply to my own post, I think it may have been a Victory of some sort, although I can’t see any versions with matt black pipes.

V Max?

with black pipes:

Jesus, that’s a beast. No, it wasn’t that. Def more old school and simple looking. I am thinking that I am on the right tracks with the Victory. Just not the model maybe.

That’s the closest I could find as well, but it had blacked out pipes which were a bit more subtle. Maybe they were aftermarket.

No prizes, just a smug sense of superiority!
