The Victory Vegas 8 Ball motorcycle was produced from 2007 to 2008 with a 1634 cc V-twin engine featuring 4 valves per cylinder and a 9.8:1 compression ratio. Induction is achieved through electronic fuel injection with 44mm throttle bodies, while the bike is started electrically with a 12 volt, 18 amp hour battery. The wet, multi-plate clutch is backed by a 6-speed transmission which drives a carbon fiber reinforced belt for final propulsion. Suspension components consist of a 43 mm inverted cartridge telescopic fork up front and a single, mono-tube gas forged and cast aluminum rear shock absorber with rising rate linkage. The front brake system utilizes a 300 mm floating rotor and 4 piston caliper, while the rear uses a single 300 mm floating rotor and 2 piston caliper. The bike rides on an 80/90-21 front tire and a 180/55 R18 rear tire, with seat height being 640 mm (25.2 inches). The dry weight of the Victory Vegas is 291 kg (645 lbs) and GVWR is 522 kg (151 lbs).
