You will love the victory. I have to trade in a new Speedmaster Rocket III. Here are some examples. The Speedmaster is actually 865cc. Sits too low and has two front brakes and a speed of more aggressive than other cruises.
With Vance & Hines exhaust and K & N with 68 hp, the estimated more than most Dynas. It weighs only 540 # so quick and agile
$ 6K is a bargain. Honda Shadows are a little unimaginative, and very widespread.

The victory is not a bad bike, but needs more maintenance than the Honda.
I go with the Honda, but if money is an issue to take the victory.

I am selling my '03 Speedmaster due to financial problems. It's bulletproof, and had absolutely no problem. Leaks of age and had electrical problems in older versions. The wheels are really modern and new triumphs. You will appreciate the careful handling of love: you can not on another cruise in the winding art. Take turn them both, and buy what you want.

Get the great interest in you.

The Honda motorcycle is more reliable and is probably a smoother ride. The Honda has more power, it weighs more ..

The triumph is unique, but reliablilty May by the problems (electrical) in particular.

If it has the only car and reliability is a necessity, then the Honda is the best option. However, if a used vehicle ... well, success can be "attractive" or "driving fun" too. Two trips and discover that you want.

Finally, with what you want and enjoy the most.
