Polaris, a Medina, Minnesota company with annual sales in 2015 of $4.7 billion, is one of the earliest manufacturers of snowmobiles.
Polaris also manufactures ATVs, side-by-side off-road vehicles, electric vehicles and, until 2004, personal watercraft.
Seeking to diversify its product line, and observing the sales enjoyed by Harley-Davidson and similar manufacturers, the company decided to produce a large motorcycle built entirely in the United States.

Victory vehicles follow the traditional American style of a heavier motorcycle that increasingly became associated with the Harley-Davidson brand in economically advanced nations after the Second World War, rather than more modern racing-inspired designs.

Polaris began its research and development of manufacturing a motorcycle in the early 1990s.
They completed extensive research that included testing numerous different makes and models of motorcycles.
This research provided them with guidance ranging from comfort to braking ability, which became the framework to design a motorcycle that combined the best of each research criteria.
Polaris was on a mission to create an American-made, cruiser-style motorcycle.
This new creation was branded with the name Victory.

Victory's debut cruiser model, V92C, had a 92 cubic-inch (1,507 cc) counterbalanced, fuel-injected V-twin motor.
In its debut in 1998, the V92C became the largest displacement engine offered in the cruiser market.
The new Victory motorcycle was unique in its appearance.
The fenders and tank profile mimicked the retro-look of sweeping lines from 1930s-era cars.

In 2010, Polaris engaged in a major expansion of production and marketing of the motorcycle.
In 2011 Polaris bought the Indian Motorcycle brand.
