This looks like a great place for Nomad info!
Very excited to be a part.
Sold my 1999 Road King and bought a used 2005 1600 Nomad 13 months and 10,000 miles ago, and have added a few extras:
V&H Baggers - needed
9"X2" K&N (left side only) - needed
Techlusion TFI - Needed
Passenger Floorboard Relocation - wife wanted
Custom passenger Backrest - wife needed
Windshield Bag with cup/bottle holder - wanted
Highway Pegs - needed
Dunlop Elite III Rear 180/70-16 Rear
But the best money spent was for a Russells "Day Long" saddle. Since I'm a big boy and did the ride-in one-day service that baby was $771 OTD. The trip home from Russell's (MT Shasta, CA) was over 250 miles, the next weekend my wife and I did over 800 and two weeks later I did a 4 day camping trip to Crater Laker, OR at just over 1000 miles. My butt never got sore...not even once.

So far, so good. I'm very satisfied with the Nomad.
It doesn't handle as well as the RK and that Nomad motor is noisy! Still, it's an awesome bike.

One question. If I take my hands off the handlebar at around 40mph the bars start to really shake. What's up with that?
