That'd be it. I think he had 260K. GV550 has more than that on his Voyager now, but I think he's had more warranty claims than Quinton.

Anyone want to give me an idea how much my 2005 Nomad with almost 74K miles is worth? Runs great, typical use scratches and rock chips. Everything works. In the last 1000 miles I put: new rear tire, cush rubbers, and u joint. Has HID headlight, batwing fairing, and HD style (they are not actual HD) crashbar covers, corbin seat (have factory seat and backrest).

Thinking about selling it. Too many toys in the garage.

Quinton has a Wing as his primary bike now and a Venture. He may still have a Drifter in the garage but I'm not sure.
