Enjoy riding your Nomad, the longer you ride it the more you'll like it.

Good-looking bike you got there, Jack. And you do have the best color on it, black.. It looks like it's ready for some serious riding now.

Great looking Bike--bet you can't stop smiling.

As for the breakin----Ride it hard--or as they say--ride it like you just stole it-Your engine will thankyou.----(of course I can't recommend speeding --)

check out the "second school of thought" I found on gadgets sight.

Paul: I read that site and honestly he made sense and if nothing else I was not too concerned about riding it hard after I studied his site and I got used to the bike. Saw one manufacturer puts all the machines on a hard dyna run to break them in before shipping and wonder of Kawa does anything with them before shipping.

I did get a few hard on the throttle and release throttle slowing against the engine within the first twenty miles and by forty miles, already to indicated 90 before backing off.

Used some of the ideas there, I still believe the break-in period is a MC Mfg. CYA type of thing any more ::)

I can't imagine keeping it under 60 for the first 600 miles, it is meant to ride ::) ::) ::)

Thanks everyone for all the congrats!
