The Victory ZACH NESS VEGAS

The Zach Ness Vegas was born of cruiser minimalism, but with a capital M. Zach picked up the paint wand knowing full well that black is not black. That knowledge resulted in the bike’s distinctive suede finish complemented by Zach’s own custom graphics. The high performance billet wheels front and rear are all Zach, and send out a bold custom styling message with every revolution. If black suede is the outfit, Holeshot billet handgrips are the custom jewelry. Complemented by the Holeshot engine covers and footpegs, the Ness Holeshot grips help hold it all together. As the cruiser leg of the family custom design triumvirate, third generation Zach Ness couldn’t wait to get his hands on the venerable Freedom V-Twin engine. Fire up the Zach Ness Vegas and the thump of the louder yet perfectly street legal exhaust goes straight to the heart. Each of Zach’s Custom Vegas motorcycles bears a number and an etched facsimile of Zach’s John Hancock.
