Well here is the link http://www.motorcyclecruiser.com/custom/0805_crup_ 2005_victory_axe/index.html To me it looks like a Confederate Hellcat mixed with a Confederate Wraith then someone tossed in a Victory power plant for a confusion factor. I really like the look of bike but the spikes got to go, being impaled by ANYTHING is not my idea of fun. |

Interesting. Looks better than that Vision abomination. |

I like the one I found better to be honest. More naked, less frills, cooler. The front end on the Axe is definately a rip-off of the Wraith. |

I didn't even see it had forward controls. They probably had to do that with those pipes. |

Not too bad, this bastard sport bike a couple of Victory employees put together a couple of years ago was cool too: http://www.momentumphoto.net/eprc/03aug4/nonumbers /1019/ |

Victory has to get into the 10 to 12K range to stay afloat current economy I don't see people throwing 20K around for motorcycles as often as they were and when they do there are much better alternitives out there |

They started off really reasonable my father in law got his bagger for around 12ish.. Seems like their prices go up every year.. |
