Not quite enough yellow yet..........................maybe the trunk should be yellow. J/K Looks great, hows she ride? :)
I thought of that Shep, but I didn't want to go over budget. Had to settle for this. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

It looks great Dano! One question, can you still get into the bags OK?
Rode about 75 miles yesterday after I picked it up. Still learning to ride it. At speed on the road, 4 lanes, 2 lanes, twisties, etc, it rides and handles great. At slow speed, it takes some muscle to steer and it has a wobble in the front end when you hit a bump at slow speeds. The video says that is normal and just hold the bars firmly and it'll go away and it does. Takes some getting use to but I suspect after time, I won't even notice it. Wife rode with me for about 25 of those miles and loves it. She's anxious to try learn in the parking lots.

I'm looking for a harley tour pack like what's on my other bike. Get one of those and a Wompus rack, have it painted Yellow and I think it will really stand out. Kinda bland right now http://s2.images.proboards.com/cool.gif but I'm working on it.

Bob, my dealer cut the hinges so all you have to do is unlock the bag, open it and pull up and out. The whole door comes off. Get what you need, slide the door back into the hinge, close and lock. Seems to work ok. It is TIGHT, but managable as long as you don't want to carry big items like a helmet in the bags.

is that a voyager kit ?
Yeap, it's an MTC Voyager kit. Couldn't find a real "Trike" kit for a Nomad anywhere and I looked for about 3 months. Even had the local trike shop looking for one to build my bike and they finally gave up. It's MTC, Tow-Pac or nothing for a Nomad.

I like it Rich. Found the dealer had the left side a little out of
kilter. I fixed that today. Hope to ride it tomorrow and see
if it rides even better.
