Maintenance

This section includes information for maintaining your Victory motorcycle. It also includes recommended

periodic maintenance intervals. “Periodic maintenance” means performing the regular service required to

keep your motorcycle in top working condition. Regular service increases motorcycle durability, safety, and

dependability, and provides greater riding pleasure.
Also see Safety Precautions, “Maintenance,” page 17.
Before you begin any maintenance procedure, read the instructions for the entire procedure in this section of

the Owner’s Manual. Choose a flat, firm surface for servicing the motorcycle. Make sure you have the time,

tools, and expertise to complete a procedure properly.
During maintenance you might use products that are potentially hazardous; such as oil or brake fluid. When

using any of these products, follow the instructions and warnings on the product packaging.
For information on major repairs, see the Victory Service Manual. Major repairs typically require the

technical skills and specially designed tools available from your authorized Victory dealer.
Your Victory dealer has the equipment and training required to properly perform emission system

maintenance and repairs.
