Overview
Victory Gunner Bobber
The Gunner is a stripped-down bobber a popular category these days
featuring the big Freedom 106 cubic inch v-twin and six-speed gearbox
refined by Victory over the past several years. This is one of the premier
cruiser engines in the heavyweight category that typically dynos in the
ballpark of 80 rear wheel horsepower.
The Gunner features Suede Titanium paint, attractive multi-spoke cast
aluminum 16-inch wheels (that carry narrow rubber, including a 140 section rear
tire) and a relatively light claimed dry weight for the heavyweight cruiser
category of 649 pounds.
With disc brakes front and rear, the Gunner makes due with a single 300 mm
floating rotor in front and four-piston caliper.
As much of the motorcycling world embraces greater complexity and calls it
added features, theres something to be said for taking parts off. Such is the
case with the classic bobber, a motorcycle taken closer to the core elements
necessary to carry a person on two wheels.
Victorys 2015 Gunner embraces the
stripped-down ethic but retains elements that the company feels serious riders
would want in a bobber-style production machine.
Which means the Freedom 106 cubic-inch 50-degree V-twin powers
the Gunner, its four-valve heads (and hydraulic lifters) making
this one of the best-running cruiser engines on the market. The
engine, gearbox, and primary drive have continued to be refined
over the years. Major upgrades came in 2011, with redesigned
shift dogs and strategic use of helical gears to both quiet
operation and reduce drive lash. Neutral assist was also added,
which, as the name implies, makes finding neutral easier.
Overall, this is a nice-shifting mechanically quiet powerplant
that is much more refined in operation than early versions of
the 106/6 powertrain.
We expect output to be similar to that of the 2013
Judge, which, on the CW Dynojet 250i dyno, produced a
healthy 81 horsepower at 4810 rpm and 96-pound-feet of torque at
just 2920.
Combine this power with a not-bad-for-a-cruiser claimed dry
weight of 649 lb. and the Gunner should move along well. If it
handles anything like the
, it will make us smile, too. And it
will likely offer nearly identical steering quality because the
chassis geometry (32-degree rake), wheelbase (64.8 inches) and
tire sizes (130/90-16 front, 140/90-16 rear) are the same as
those of the Judge.
The new 24-spoke wheels are a nice touch, teaming with Suede
Titanium paint and a 25-inch-high solo seat to give the Gunner
its distinct look.
