Thanks for all the advice and help I've gotten on here but after I sold the vaquero, I just picked up a 2020 roadglide CVO. Gotta admit. This bike is absolutely inncredible

bo1966 Enjoy you new ride. Keep in mind your Kawasaki experiences may be helpful here.
Others here have went to Polaris (Your know who you are brother) Yet they still hang out from time to time.

Ride safe

I looked at the challenger. I was excited to see it until I did. My last words to the Indian salesman were " Indian just sold me a Harley" The bike seems unfinished, very plain. The bars put my arms in an awkward position and the sitting position is just odd. Standing it up does feel lighter but the stand doesn't lean it over as far as HD does. Check the Indian forums and see how many have come out to find the bike on it's side. The exhaust sound very odd. it was stock but it just has a strange sound to it. It just doesn't have the look or feel of a V-twin. Did have a few nice features but not nearly enough to sway me. The salesman even said he agreed. Most come in excited to see it right up until they do. I'm disappointed that Kawasaki won't update the vaquero. I have a buddy that wants one but he wont spend the money on a bike that hasn't changed anything on it.

Well, I came from the Harleys to here....then recently I'd bought a street glide, got it running flipped it, got a Vaquero. I love that one....but, I'll never ever get rid of my 2001 Nomad!
Will probably be trading for a older but in perfect shape, I mean pristine, 2010 CVO Road King....guy had them install or should I say adapt a Street Glide fairing to it.....really nice.
He's gonna have to cough up some money to get the Vaquero.
The Road King has some electrical issues that I can deal with....and will cost me about $500 to get the parts to repair it....but its a keeper if the deal goes thru....
Hang around dude....you will get to Jones'en for the Nomad friends....

The power and comfort. Full navigation, heated seats and grips for the 1 month I'll need it. It has a lot of storage and with the rhinhart exhaust it sounds perfect. I didn't realize how different the bike would feel since my vaquero also had a fixed fairing but it just feels more planted .Full LED package is also nice and the day maker headlights are really powerefull

At $41 grand I should hope so. They are sweet bikes though but after my 2018 Ultra Limited Oil Migration problem Harley lost me.

I switched brands but still hang out here. Lots of knowledge and if I can help someone once &a while it's a bonus.

I have not had a Kawasaki since 2014 but visit the forum almost every day.
