New Voyager

If money was no object I would probably go with the Gold Wing or Ultra but for the money you just can't the Nomad or Voyager for price and performance. Personally I like the look of both the new ones. Guess I am the minority for now but they will grow on you. My dealership has both on the floor.

Dennis,

I like them as well. I actually love the fact they are belt driven, 6 speed, and have cruise. From what I am hearing though what I wouldn't like is the addition of platichrome. I love that our Nomads have lots of real chrome.

And the color choices are crappy.

I like them also Dennis. Not enough color choices though. A pearl white voyager would look great IMO.

The dealer had a blue and black one and I got to look and sit on it. When I first saw it the bike looked awesome. When I sat on it the first thing I noticed was the seat was taller than my Nomad. The right transmission cover sticks out enough so that my inside leg is pressed against it when standing up. Wonder how hot that will get. I like having the gas cap on the right for easier filling. This one is in the middle of the tank. The trunk design looked great and thought how nice it would be to order one and match paint it to my Nomad. When looking it over good I was a bit turned off by the plastic that was chrome plated which looked like it held the trunk up. There was king of an ugly steel pipe structure under the plastic. The side bag design is a step back for me. I was impressed with the fairing and gages and the way the headlight and side lights were mounted. No weight on the handle bars because of the frame mount. I would definitely like my Nomad better than the Voyager if I had the Premeux fairing and trunk. Before I would spend 17 k I would probably spend the extra money and get the Harley Ultra Classic. But sticking with my Nomad is probably where I am going to stay.
