Warrior Made Victory Vegas 8-Ball Sweepstakes Announced

Victory Motorcycles announced it is the sponsor of the MilitaryTimes.com “Warrior Made” series that recognizes the 12 greatest innovations in military history (such as the Jeep, the continuous track, camouflage, Kevlar, the Global Positioning System and more), and has thus decided it was only fitted to give away a special 2011 Vegas 8-Ball.

Registration for the “Warrior Made” bike giveaway can be made at the following link, until June 4, 2011. The fuel tank of the “Warrior Made” Vegas 8-Ball was signed by the entire production team that built the bike at Victory’s Spirit Lake, Iowa, final assembly plant. Several of those team members are military veterans themselves.

The “Warrior Made” Vegas 8-Ball is a custom cruiser that features a raised spine on the bodywork running the length of the bike, a split-tail fuel tank, and a tall front wheel. It is powered by the Victory Freedom 106/6 engine with a displacement of 106 cubic inches and a 6-speed transmission.

“Knowing the bike they were building would be awarded to the winner of the ‘Warrior Made’ give-away, the Victory team built the bike with a special sense of gratitude for our nation’s military personnel,” said Victory General Manager Steve Menneto. “We have the greatest respect for our military’s service and sacrifice, and are honored to support them through this and other Victory promotions.”

Sponsorship of the “Warrior Made” series and the special Vegas 8-Ball giveaway is part of Victory’s continuing support for active U.S. enlisted personnel. Victory has also teamed with Operation Gratitude to collect personal items for troops deployed worldwide, made a special contribution to Fort Hood in Texas in the aftermath of the 2009 incident, and featured military personnel and their motorcycles in Victory Rider magazine and on the Victory website.
