[visordown.com] - New colours and styling changes for Indian and Victory lineup
The Victory Vegas gets new wheels and headlight and a colour-matched frame for 2016. INDIAN and Victory Motorcycles have just revealed updates to their 2016 models consisting mainly of new colours and styling tweaks. The biggest changes are to Victory’s 1731cc V-twin cruisers the Vegas and Vegas 8-Ball. They get ‘lighter and stronger’ cast aluminium wheels, a ‘sleeker’ round headlight and colour-matched frame. Among the rest of the Victory’s cruiser range, the Judge comes in a new ‘sunset red with black rally stripes’ paint scheme and the Hammer 8-Ball gets the wheels of the higher-spec Hammer S. Victory’s Magnum bagger comes in two new colour options described as ‘black crystal over havasu red’ and ‘suede pearl white with black’. The new schemes feature stripes running from fairing to tail. Indian has revealed new colours for the Scout, Chief range and Roadmaster. The Scout now comes in a ‘wildfire red’ scheme. New options in the Chief range are ‘pearl white’ for the Chief Classic, ‘star silver and thunder black’ for the Chief Vintage and ‘silver smoke’ for the Chieftain. The Roadmaster now comes in three new schemes: ‘storm grey and thunder black, blue diamond and springfield blue ivory cream’. See the new schemes in the gallery under this story. Victory and Indian’s parent company Polaris announced the updates in press releases which included: ‘Victory Motorcycles CRUISERS VEGAS The Vegas 8-Ball (all-black) and the Vegas have had the biggest changes this year. Each has an improved round headlight and colour-matched frames. Victory has also upgraded the wheels for each model, fitting cast aluminium axe design ‘Falchion’ wheels. These are lighter and stronger. The painted frame adds a custom touch, but not a gram of weight. A new, sleeker headlight further slims the profile.
