I dunno Kris. You should think about it. At the very least give me first shot at your Premeux trunk.

GO FOR IT!!!!!
White stays cleaner & there aren't as many white bikes as there are black. I plan to ride my Vaquero till it's paid off and buy something else. No more trading or selling, the joy of being single I can keep what I like.

CJ....I rode one at the 2010 SW Rally while in Arches NP....but never got it up over 35 mph. I asked to test ride it today....but they wanted all the paperwork up front since it has no miles on it. They will let me ride it....but they want all the paperwork in order beforehand in case I wreck it and if I don't like it...I don't have to buy it. It seems comfortable enough...but thats only sitting on it.

I'll be different...go for the black / grey.....I just don't care much for white bikes. Either way I think you'll probably love the voyager

Listen to the voice of reason Kris...............buy the white and gold one NOW. You only live once and you know you deserve it.
That is an excellent trade in price for the Nomad. |

White/Gold is safer, easier to keep clean. Is the trunk really that much smaller?
