Want to install front lights on a 2010 Nomad
Stan,
Those look like the Burners from WallyW. I eventually had to replace the sockets, which come right out with bulb removed and are a $2 standard hardware store item. Then sealed them up on...

Lost my only son
Dennis,
Just came across this, haven't been on much lately. My deepest sympathies, losing a child has to be one of life's toughest. Time will help but will not remove all the pain.

Those in my sig pic below are $17 at Wally World, complete with wiring kit, 50W each (the headlight is 100W) and install in a few minutes plus the wiring taking maybe an hour.

Two of three that I had fail suddenly were Interstates. Their standard warranty is not that all long and full replacement costs extra, as I recall.

I've had a few auto batteries (three I recall) that died suddenly without warning over the past 15 years or so. Perfectly good (at starting) one day and dead as a doornail the next. Hasn't happened...

Geez LW, that's not suppose to happen. Glad you are okay. Kudos to Skeeter for sure.
Would be interested in a further diagnosis as to what may have caused it.

Shifting problems
At that mileage, could be the clutch spring, but should show symptoms at other speeds too, with enough acceleration. Try it on a steep hill, if you have one.

Life After No longer Owning a Nomad
I'm surprised that nobody has suggested the VN1700 option. There is a tremendous difference (improvement) in the low speed handling with it, based on my one experience with an extended test ride. ...

As someone else said, the TFI reignited my love affair with the Nomad. What a difference it makes, even at 5500 ft! Even getting 40+ mpg on the highway with 85 octane.

I think Deacon experienced the Nomad's torque, going from third to fourth at higher rpm (and single rider) is a kick.

What CJ said. Been there done that. It is quite a surprise and before you know it you're past the recovery point. The 1700s don't seem to do it.

As others have said, it can be some great or some very bad riding. Take it a day (if not an hour) and a mile at a time and don't plan too far ahead for anything going one way or the other. The...
