20 WheelsOfGrace.com April/May 2016 Industry Industry Industry Industry Industry A 1,200cc liquid-cooled V-twin (Victory Motorcycles' first liquid cooled engine) uses dual overhead cams and four-valve heads to rev beyond 8,000 rpm and deliver 104 horsepower and 76 pound-feet of torque. is makes it Victory's most powerful production motorcycle. At 524 pounds, it's also the company's lightest. No surprise that this is the quickest Victory bike down the quarter mile at 12 seconds and the fastest from 0-60 mph at less than 4 seconds. e 60-degree V-twin was developed from the Project 156 prototype (read more about the project in our previous edition), which was tested at the grueling Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. e short-stroke engine geometry was carried over from the 156 racer to allow higher rpm and horsepower. Its quick-revving nature responds more like a sport bike than a traditional American V-twin. e aggression carries over to the looks department to be seen in the Octane's hard lines, sharp creases, and a pronounced center spine. You'd have to look hard to find shiny bits, as the bulk of the Octane's chassis, running gear, and powertrain are blacked out. e body is painted Matte Super Steel Gray, and even the tank badge has been cast in gray rather than the traditional Victory red. e Octane starts at $10,500 and can be customized with performance factory parts.
