A note from Lloyd:
“All right! So now I have my very own instant way to throw up Tips, Tricks, and Tidbits of information.
As a warning to all whom read these, they may not be politically correct, the spelling maybe wrong, the verbiage will probably be in a language that’s hard to understand at times and I sometimes write to expel feelings so don’t take it to heart.
So with that I’ll start out by saying – Welcome to my Tech Tip page. You’re here because you most likely own a Victory Motorcycle. Congratulations, as you have one of the finest Motorcycles built today. These pages will be a review of information from one-liners to mega paragraphs. I have a TREMENDOUS wealth of information regarding these bikes and I would like to share some of that with you. The reason I need an instant way to add tips is, well, my short term memory sucks so I need an instant way to add them as they hit me or I will forget.
The information added here will be on a non-discussion basis. These posts will be 100% facts and as much as you may or may not like to hear them they will be here for your reading pleasures.
I hope you’ll enjoy these as I roll them out.”
