2009 victory vision motorcycle. Dfu july 09since day one, heavy fuel smell, vapors.found lots of others on the internet making the same complaint.finally, the servicing dealer agreed to order a new designed fuel cap for me.i found this to be a common remedy on the internet and told them. Now 90 days later, no fuel cap.he said he can't get it.i called polaris customer service, and they acted totally uninformed, and gave me the run around, sending me back to the dealer for resolution.they kept wanting to get off the phone and have me research the new fuel cap part number.i thought they should know this.they said they can't do anything to help but steer me back to the helpless dealer. I insisted they do the research, get their own part number and call me back with a resolution. I told them i would notify nhtsa either way.there are hundreds/thousands of owners out there with this problem and victory chose to evade responsibility and remedy.
I own a 2013 victory highball motorcycle.i recently took the rear wheel in to a local dealer to have the rear tire changed due to normal wear.during the course of the tire change the dealer noticed over a dozen of the rear wheel spokes were broken.this vehicle is only 4 years old and has less than 14,000 miles.it seems to me this is a serious safety defect in either design, materials, or manufacture.i thought i would report the issue in the event your agency had received similar complaints from other owners.having read several forum websites for owners of this make/model vehicle it seems to me the problem is not uncommon.to their credit, victory/polaris has offered to replace the broken spokes at no cost.while this is very nice, i'm not sure i want to bet my life on these things.any help you can provide would be great.
I was having a tire repaired at "ridersville cycle" in berkley springs, west virginia on sept. 28, 2007 when the technician showed me the rear axle of my 2006 victory, vegas, motorcycle. The axle had a large piece missing at the very end of the axle, photos of the axle are available. The tech informed me a "recall had been issued by victory" . I mentioned i had not received notification from victory as to any recall, he continued the recall was issued in august 2007 for my model motorcycle. I then took the defective axle to show the owner of "ridersville cycle", harold munger, to compliment the technician for finding the broken axle and to inquire as to why victory had neglected to notify me of this recall of a very important part? i was surprised, to say the very least, at mr. Unger's response. He stated ( i will paraphrase his statements) the part didn't appear defective to him looking at it logically and he felt it would not present any safety concern. He continued "you could drive this six million miles an hour forever with no problem". He then told me perhaps victory had indeed sent me a recall notice. I said they had not done so. He then added it could be in today's mail.mrs. Unger searched for the victory recall on the business' computer and provided the notice. I was told a summary;it stated the motorcycle should be not ridden,it should be inspected as soon as possible by a victory technician because of defective rear axles. This is the second time i have experienced failure of parts on the motorcycle. One of my saddlebags fell off the motorcycle while underway.i was not notified the brackets were defective.i am filing thisbecause i feel victory motorcycle company fails to notify customers of defects to save having to replace parts until someone has a problem. I believe the company encourages their dealers to discourage having these defective parts replaced.
