Sorry, sad to say -- this isn't much. The Weber multi-purpose engine Polaris gets from Germany (think -- Briggs & Stratton) makes (maybe 50hp, naturally aspirated) and the continuously varialble (Salsbury type) transmission is a really basic (simple) drive -- nothing like a real transmission. This kind of stuff works somewhat acceptably in very basic machinery (lawn tractors, snowblowers, etc) but lags far behind what first-class motorcycle manufacturers offer.And that's not mentioning its looks......quicksilver Posted on Dec 13 2005, 01:56 PM 800cc with a CVT tranny.
Serious R&D has gone into this.
The drivetrain has too much invested not to go to market.
Fortunatly, style sins can be addressed between now and then.
Maybe the intent of this bike is not to win a beauty contest.
Maybe, it is to tell everyone that a Victory sport bike is coming,
and it is not going to be a "me too" Japanese copy.
