Polaris is sad to inform Victory owners, fans and enthusiasts that the 2014 edition of the America Victory Rally is canceled.
This year’s America Victory Rally was supposed to bring Victory riders and fans together on pre grounds of the manufacturer’s Spirit Lake facility in Iowa. The traditional rally was supposed to take place one week after the Sturgis Rally, which meant around mid-August, but Polaris, Victory’s mother-company invokes logistics issues.

That is, the entire Spirit Lake facility is currently undergoing a massive wave of transformations, involving the very manufacturing lines and all, and Polaris estimates that the whole upgrade process will not be over in time to allow the needed preparations for accommodating the huge crowd of Victory fans.

Marcy Bosch, committee chair of the American Victory Rally adds: “We will be transforming our manufacturing lines this summer to keep up with the demands fueled by the continued enthusiasm for Victory bikes and our other products, which means we won’t be able to free up the facilities and dedicate the resources necessary to support a quality rally. We are grateful to our riders and the Spirit Lake community for their continued support and passion for the Victory brand.”

Polaris adds that it will encourage Victory dealers across the country to support the local Victory rallies, and provide information on events which might be organized in their area, in an effort to make 2014 as lively as possible.

Now, with such transformations of the manufacturing lines, does this mean that we get new Victory models?
