Sometimes a bike's color-- like "Suede Nuclear Sunset," seen here-- says all you need to know about its personality.
Continuing their tradition of stripped-down, custom style rides (like the High-Ball), the just-announced 2013 Victory Judge gets a 106 cubic inch (1,731cc) air-cooled mill that pumps 113 ft-lbs of torque and 97 horsepower, mated to an overdriven six speed 'box. Seat height is a reasonable 25.9 inches, and details include drag bars, blacked-out components, and tall 90-series Dunlop Elite II tires with raised white lettering.
Best thing about the big-bore Judge? Its price*, which starts at $13,999 in Gloss Black, and jumps to $14,399 for Sunset Red and-- yes, Suede Nuclear Sunset.

Saw it yesterday at the show and it looks good. It’s really surprising how many bikes Victory produces now. Add Indian into the mix and they really have quite an offering.
I like it 98%. The rear fender needs tweaking for my taste. Victory makes great cruisers! I put many miles on my Victory Kingpin and they have improved since then. The Judge looks like it will be great for the short legged. Love the tank and the head light also the wheels. I didn’t care for the Dunlop elite tires that came with mine, but they might have improved those as well.
Can’t say this bike does it for me, I don’t like the black out look much and I hate mid controls. Now the Vegas Jackpot, that’s a nice bike. Shame they can’t price the Jackpot the same as this (Judge) bike.
