Happy owner of a Vulcan Nomad 2005

**Marc "Frenchy" Germain** · 04-13-2013, 12:13 AM

After 21 years since my last ride(kawa ZX-10 1989), I just bought this week a 2005 Vulcan Nomad 1600! But sadly i'll have to wait for my first ride...we having right now a winter storm with 10 inch of snow....I'm a little bit anxious how will i handle this big bike! I salute every members and hope to meet you on the road.

I'm a french canadian who's working for Eaton service division(ESSS) back in montreal,PQ.

Greetings from Stewiacke, NS. I have a 2005 Nomad, it does not take long to get used to it, handles great. I find it easier than my previous bike, '99 Virago 1100.

Welcome from Oklahoma. I too had been of a bike for 20+ year. The Nomad is a big bike and will take a couple of weeks to get use to but it's know big deal. Have fun when it quits snowing.
