And they wallow around on these, like a pissed up 3 legged camel. Fuck knows what they must be like with a 180 on the arse end.

The tire size info in that link says the Nomad 1500 comes with 150/80/19 on each end.....I know those bikes didn't come with 19" rims. Lol

You are right. They are 16in.

Ultimate Specs are quite often not very "Ultimate". For instance their posted specs for the Mean Streak often show the same specs as for the Nomad. I don't trust the data posted on Ultimate Specs.

Point taken. I just did a Google search, and posted the first item i came to, without even reading it.. However. My Nomad is/was, a far better ride with 130's at both ends. Maybe that's because, we have a bend in the road every 1/2 a mile or so, and like to scoot around a bit.
