1500 Nomad kickstand
I'm looking to buy a kickstand off a 1500 Nomad or trade the kickstand off my 2011 Voyager for one. The Nomad kickstand is about 1" longer than the one off the Voyager.
Thanks! okcmike54@aol.com

Maybe it's the kickstand off a Mean Streak?? I swapped out the kickstand off my 2010 Voyager with what I thought was a Nomad. Maybe a case of CRS going on. Anyway, the kickstand was about 1" longer than the one I had and made the Voyager alot easier to stand up.. The kickstand was one of the few things I didn't get off my 2010 before it went to salvage. I'll do some more research.
Thanks for the heads up..

The kick stand off a 1500 Drifter is longer than the 1500 Classic FI (which is the same as the 1500 Nomad). I "fixed" the kick stand on my Classic by cutting and attaching a piece of 1" thick hard rubber to the shoe of the kick stand. It doesn't lean over nearly as bad.

That's Gadgets page on the subject. I might have to go with a longer kickstand once I add my fairing.

My bike was fine with the original kickstand.

Same here, no problems, but here are a couple of links to 1500 & 1600 kick stands http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from...All-Categories http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from...All-Categories

Not nearly the issue in Phoenix as it was in Seattle, but I would hesitate to make such a change. If you are ever in a situation that requires you to park on an incline that "extra lean" might come in handy.
