Maintenance
Proper maintenance assures the highest level of safety, durability and dependability for your
motorcycle.
• Have your VICTORY dealer perform the break-in maintenance procedures when the
motorcycle’s odometer registers 500 miles (800 km).
• Perform the recommended periodic maintenance at the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance table beginning on page 53.
Road Tests
Before returning the motorcycle to regular use after performing service, road test it in a safe
environment. Pay special attention to the proper fit and operation of all serviced components.
Make any corrections or additional adjustments necessary to ensure safe vehicle perfor-
mance.
Break-In Maintenance
Have your VICTORY dealer perform the break-in maintenance procedures when the motor-
cycle’s odometer registers 500 miles (800 km). Performing the break-in maintenance will
help ensure optimum engine performance for the entire service life of the engine. Your dealer
will change engine oil, inspect all fluids and serviceable components, ensure that all fasten-
ers are tightened and make other adjustments as needed.
Major Maintenance
For major repair information, refer to the
VICTORY Service Manual
. Major repairs typically
require technical skills and specially designed tools. Emission system service requires spe-
cial tools and training and should be performed by your dealer.
Periodic Maintenance
Inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust and replace parts as necessary. When inspection reveals the
need for replacement parts, use genuine VICTORY parts available from your VICTORY
dealer. Record service and maintenance information in the Maintenance Log beginning on
page 54.
Perform maintenance at the intervals specified in the periodic maintenance table beginning
on page 53. Perform the procedures more frequently if normal use of the motorcycle
includes:
• high speed operation for extended periods
• low speed operation for extended periods
• operation in dusty or otherwise adverse conditions
