Question Just wondering...

Hi
Back in 2005, I had purchased a new Nomad & found this forum. I found it great & made some pretty good friends along the way. As you can see from my pic, I now ride a Goldwing.
I was wondering if you Vulcan Baggers mind if I still hang around & make comments & post stuff?

Like I said, I was just wondering...

Cheers & have a great day!
Guy

A lot of people on here have changed bikes but liked it enough to stay.

Guy; Sure you can hang around, especially if you buy the beer!
Those wings are nice bikes, I took one out last fall for a demo ride and I was impressed how it handled.
We should try to meet up for a ride again one day.

Guy I told you before it's ok to ride with us but stay in the back.
Seriously when you change to a non Vulcan Bagger normally you change your status to enthusiast, but not much else changes.

You get to stay and participate but you become a member of the Various Bagger Association.
It is kind of a sub-forum for guys who used to ride Kawasaki but now ride sub-par motorcycles.

What do you ride SnoPusher?
I kinda like the Ural, I met a guy and his wife at the rest area down by Whitney Point.

Hey Joel, she does not read this forum.
I have told her her bike does not fit me and I could not ride it more than 40 miles a day.
She said it is her bike and it does not need to fit anyone but her.
Some times on a hill on a 4 lane road she passes me just to let me know who has the more powerful bike

I ride an 11 Heritage Softail Classic. Iv'e had a 1600 Nomad and a 1700 Voyager. I'm kicking myself for selling the Nomad. I didn't care too much for the Voyager. It had some issues and didn't handle right. As for Ural rig operators, God bless them. Sidecar rigs look hard to operate. I can't imagine trying to steer a driven sidecar rig.

I'd buy a Ural just cause the concept seems neat and I could use it living in the country. I do believe there is a manual engagement for the second wheel drive otherwise you'd never go around a corner on pavement. Unfortunately the reliability record is an issue.
