I'd be down with a V4. The inline-4 just lacks character IMHO...

Why?

Victorys look nice....but they are ridiculously over priced. You'd likely get much better performance for a LOT less money from other manufacturers.

I mean, I don't want to start a big flamefest or anything but I just don't get the whole Buell/whatever EB does next thing. I've not ridden one so I'll just ask those of you who have...how does their peformance stack up to other "sport" bikes that you've ridden?
