Where are Nomads manufactured?

[biscuitsngravy]

Are our Nomads manufactured or assembled in the Lincoln, NE plant? I know there is also a Maryville, Missouri plant but don't know what they manufacture.

Has anyone ever toured the plant in Lincoln, NE?

thanks,

I believe Nomads are all made in Japan.
There is a thread on this and how to find out if you do a search.

Japan, I believe it is indicated somewhere on the vin.

This web site was either posted on this site or on another vulcan board just put in your vin # and it will tell you where your bike was made. http://www.analogx.com/contents/vinview.htm . I'm pretty sure all nomads are made in Japan but I forget was city

Last I checked, all Nomads were made in Japan. You can visit the KawaNOW links page and on there is the address to input your VIN and find out where it was made.

They are made by little elves at the North Pole and are only delivered to good girls and boys. Nico had to steal his. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif
