As its previous embodiments, the 2012 MY Victory Hammer 8-Ball comes in a muscular, blacked-out modern design, which appeals to those riders who prefer a more aggressive cruiser. The defining features of this model are the fat, 250mm rear tire, the race-inspired inverted front fork, the removable passenger cowl, as well as the characteristic 8-Ball blacked-out look. From the paint scheme to the engine accents, from the front fork to the exhaust system, all the elements on this machine are black, which makes for an aggressive two-wheeler, sure to stand out in any crowd.
At its heart lies a muscular, air-cooled, four-stroke, 1731cc, 50-degree V-twin powerplant mated to a six-speed manual transmission with an overdrive function.
