1700 Nomad riders?
It seems like most of the members here are Voyager or Vaquero riders. I'm a 1700 Nomad rider and I'm curious to know how many of us are out there? Do you have one? Are you satisfied with it and do you feel the need to upgrade?

I have a 2011 I got as a leftover in 2012. Added a Kaw trunk kit, driver's back rest, 14" mini apes, exhaust & Ivanized. She's about finished.....maybe...I think....or maybe add a lowering kit. I seem to be getting shorter with old age. Anyways, love it & plan to ride this one till I can no longer ride.

I ride a 2012 Nomad and love it AFTER Ivan's flash! Before I was disappointed with the power.

Riding an 01 grey/silver which is my baby. Can't seem to keep it parked. Also have an 09 black. It is stock excepting v/h exhaust. Love the six speed, belt drive and more power but something's missing. Looking at maybe a voyager this spring but keeping the 01 for fun around town and selling the 09.

Had a 2011 Nomad and wrote it off. Liked it so much I went searching for another to replace it. Found a 2010 with 60,000 less kms on it than the other one and ended up pocketing a couple thousand dollars from the insurance. Stripped a few things off the old one before it got carted away. Just a really comfortable bike for me. No plans on changing here
