The folks at Victory and Indian are both Polaris employees, so I'm sure at least some of the engineering efforts are shared across brands.

I had myself convinced that a sport tourer was the next bike for me and test rode BMW 1200RT's and a Yamaha FJR 1300. They both felt distinctly uncomfortable and I couldn't wait to get off. So I guess the cruiser or standard platform is it for me.
