As part of their 2014 line-up unveiling schedule, Victory announces the new model year Vegas 8-Ball. If it's an 8-Ball then it's all black, mean, darkened looks for this nifty affordable cruiser, a livery to match its brawny character.
Obviously a shot at Milwaukee's VRSC, the 2014 Victory Vegas 8-Ball sports the same iconic stacked dual exhaust cues for a classic and sleek line. With dragster-inspired, flowing lines, this bikes evokes the classic motorcycle looks but re-interprets them with present day engineering and the best Victory has to offer.

This machine is powered by the classic Victory Freedom 106cui (1,731cc) v-twin packing a whopping 106 lb-ft (143 Nm) of torque and capable to deliver both smooth uphill cornering and blazing highway speed thanks to the 6-speed overdrive tranny.

Being a machine created for self-gratification and true freedom, the 2014 Victory Vegas 8-Ball comes with a streamlined, sculpted solo seat, with a low, in-frame placement for great stability, comfort and riding closer to the ground pleasure.

The contrast cut billet Stingray wheels are standard, but Victory also offers a plethora of custom parts on the optionals' list. A rather light, 290 kg (638 lbs) bike, the 2014 Victory Vegas 8-Ball also brings triple 300mm rotors for exceptional braking power.

It's an 8-Ball, so black is the only color, available for a very affordable $12,499 (€9,410) base price.
