Who has my old Nomad, anyone from here?

[dantama]

I'm just curious where my 1999 Red/red Nomad is. I know its a slim chance, but does anyone here have it?

It had 65,000 miles on it when I sold it in Salt Lake City, Utah in late 2005 or early 2006. So it might not even be on the road at all now, but with proper care it certainly could be.

It had a couple of gauges on top of the bags where I mangled the sticker removal back when I didn't realize how soft the paint can get with heat :(
Floor boards worn on the bottom from tight turns.
Vance & Hines exhaust when I sold it.
Cracks creeping up from the top of windshield bracket that I filled with super glue (stopped the crack in its tracks if anyone has one).

Just curious if one of the bikes here is it?

The owner of my 2005 recently let me know of its fate... Totaled http://s2.images.proboards.com/shocked.gif :( :(
Made me curious about the 99.

It had gauges or gouges, Dan?

Tach on one bag, oil pressure on the other ;)

Would not want to be beside you when you are checking the tach http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

I'm in utah and I do ride with several Vulcan riders, but I haven't seen an older red nomad. It's a fat chance, but I'll keep my eyes peeled.

You are lucky enough to be right by the Alpine loop, one of the best roads I've ever been on.

Dan, remind me not to let you ride mine, sound like you tortured yours. LOL. Just kidding. I have 900 miles on mine without a scratch, not sure how long that's gonna last, though. .........
On a separate note, I have been watching your youtube video on parking lot practice for over six months before I got mine. I had no idea that was you til last week. Watching that video and a few others made my mind up on whether to get a Nomad or not. That's some awesome driving and hope one day I can get close to being that good. Jamie

jamie just take your new bike in for the 600 mile check-up and watch the scratches begin. LOL

Wow Jamie, that was quite a compliment :)

Thanks much and enjoy the bike

The alpine loop is an amazing road. I've seen three people dump their bike on it! http://s2.images.proboards.com/shocked.gif http://s2.images.proboards.com/shocked.gif

I did see a RED/red Nomad is southern Cal that had knobbie tires on it and a huge skid plate so it could have been yours Dan! http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

Double checked my garage, no extra Nomads there, only 1 silver/blue '08
Sorry

It didn't have them when I sold it, but perhaps I'll go buy it back now http://s2.images.proboards.com/cheesy.gif
