2012 Victory Cross Roads

IT'S YOUR JOURNEY. RIDE IT THAT WAY. You choose the road. You choose the style. And you can choose the bike. Whether you want a hard bagger or a soft bagger, you have two bikes to pick from. Both boast unmatched cargo space and smooth power that never lets you down. Choose your style of saddlebag, modern or tubular tip-over protection, and add the optional windshield to tailor your bike to your needs right at the dealership.

 

106 CUBIC-INCH FREEDOM V-TWIN106 CUBIC-INCH FREEDOM V-TWIN

At the heart of the Cross Roads sits the Freedom V-Twin power plant, expertly balanced for the perfectly controlled explosion that delivers 109 ft lbs of hole shot torque. Maestro of the motorcycle world, it’s what keeps man, machine and highway working together in perfect harmony.

 



 

6-SPEED OVERDRIVE TRANSMISSION

6-SPEED OVERDRIVE TRANSMISSION

The highest performing transmission on the road receives the power generated by the massive V-twin and seamlessly turns it into something you can use. Neutral Selection Assist and helical-cut gears ensure every shift is as quiet and smooth as the one before it.

 



 

NO NONSENSE TOURING BIKE

NO NONSENSE TOURING BIKE

Now anyone who hears the call of the open road can answer it with the crack of their own throttle. At $15,999, there has never been more opportunity to put the wind in your face or the power of a Freedom V-Twin in your fist. So saddle up and explore wherever those newly acquired miles of blacktop take you.

 


 

ABS BRAKES

ABS BRAKES

Standard on the Cross Roads, the Victory Anti-Lock Brake System doesn’t discriminate between dry, wet or rock-strewn pavement. No matter what the conditions, ABS monitors what the wheel is doing and gives you consistent, smooth braking from the handlebar lever down to the rubber on the road.

 

 

 

MAKE IT YOUR OWNMAKE IT YOUR OWN

Wherever it goes the Cross Roads stands out as an eye-grabbing original. With 48 custom combinations available, you can take that steel stamp of originality a step further. Choose color, saddlebags, windshield and specific tip-over protection that says ‘Here is a bike like no other, fitting its rider’s every want and need.’

 


 

AMPLE STORAGEAMPLE STORAGE

Choose between 17.4 gallons of soft bags storage capacity and 21 gallons of hard bag roominess. Either way your Cross Roads will sport the look of a well-groomed road warrior, and you’ll have plenty of cargo space for another rider’s carry on.
