Hi Finky..

I can maybe call myself a member of this forum in spirit.. I'm from Sydney, lived 2004-2006 in Melbourne (Hampton) then moved to Anaheim California in October 2006.. expect to be here for a few years yet, but plan to bring my 'nad home with me, so will see you then !

Cheers,
Brian

h there guys, im a newbie to the site (1st post) and hail from echuca/moama on the vic nsw border. i have just purchased a 98 nomad in 2 tone green and i absolutely love it. the only issue i have is the very small fuel tank capacity, as it means i have to pull up for fuel often (which i dont really mind) but when i stop i always get caught up with people wanting to know about the bike.

Welcome from Canada
Your gonna have to post pictures of your ride for all of us to enjoy. Well, you don't HAVE to but we really do like seeing the Nomad with different backgrounds.

I just got my Nomad last month and love it too. If you think that the tank is small, check out the tank on my Suzuki in my sig line, it holds 13 liters.

Take care.

Not as far as Townsville we rode up there in March this year took 5 days we went up through the centre and back via the coast road all up we were away for 3 weeks altogether.

Hi all
Five day's on the road and back home again had a great time and road some good roads the wife's new 1600 never missed a beat except for a small fall in a garage drain knocked her
confidence a bit but by the time we headed for home she was hunting me down on the open road cruising along at 140Ks she loves the bigger bike and for me it's good to see her in my mirror staying right up with the bigger bikes.I will put up some photo's soon for yopu all to have a look at.

[madcow]

cant wait to see the photos finky, good to see the trip went well.

G'day All, havnt been on the boards here for a while, been at the AKRF, mainly due to it being Ozzy. Great to see the "Great Southern Land" getting a look in. Still recon the KawaNOW site is the best for everything Nomad.
