Given your amazing record of past performance ( As I recall you were awarded the Guinness World record for World's Most Stationary Nomad, right?), that probably does seem like a lot of miles to you, so Good Job Brad!!!! Thanks for sharing!

Nope. That would be me. Less than 2k miles the year I owned my Nomad. 12k miles in the year I've owned my Victory. Hmmmm...

If they counted hours in the garage trying to modify the Nomad you would have gotten an award for persistence.
12,000 miles on the Vic because you realized it is more fun to ride the damn thing wrench on it.

Couldn't agree more on either count.

Stop it, Brad. TC will get a big head and/or start thinking we like him.

You had me worried sick !!!!!

Oh and I've been meaning to ask you....have you ever considered a car tire on the Victory?? You had one on the Nomad if I'm not mistaken......Or because Victory owners think they handle better than Nomads {I can't confirm or feny that} you don't need/want to.

I bought mine May 1st, had to park it Nov 1st due to snow and managed to put 21748 miles (35,000km) on it, get out and ride fellas!

This past season I managed to ride in 3 Canadian Provinces and 26 of the Lower 48 US States, was a good year
