No Classics or Drifters?

pcarrell · 10-31-2012, 01:27 PM

I noticed that there is a section for Nomads, but no Classics or Drifters. Some folks do go the bagger route with those bikes (my Drifter is heading that way), so do they just post in the Nomads section?

The forum used to be Nomads only. After the 1700's were launched, it was decided to include the Voyager and the Vaquero was added when it was introduced. These are the primary focus of the forum. Obviously, it's not a requirement to own one of these or I wouldn't be here. I had a 2007 Nomad until a year and a half ago, and they let me stay after I bought my Harley.

You'll notice there's no section for the smaller Vulcans either.

There is a forum for Drifters at this link;

http://vulcandrifterriders.com/

But yes you are welcome to post in the Nomad section.
I have a 2001 Drifter 800 and post there if I want.
What do you have for a Drifter?

Also, we let the Harley guys stay so we would have some people to bust on.
Usually thet take it well, usually

correct me if i'm wrong. the 1700cc were included because they have hard bags.

When I get hard bags on my wife's 900 does that mean she can join

I don't think she can join just because you put hard bags on her bike, but she can still become a member under your membership, I think that is how it was explained to me.

Sure do want to see a pic of that 900 when you get the bags on Lar.

The 1700 were included because the 1600 Nomad was superceded by the 1700 Nomad. This was still a Nomad only forum at this point. The Voyager and Vaquero came later as Trip decided to broaden the scope of the forum.

Thanks for all the welcomes guys!

It makes more sense now that you've explained the history of the site.

duffy · 10-31-2012, 08:21 PM

Welcome...........I currently have a Classic (bagged out of course) and had a Drifter also (both at the same time) and they let me hang around and even ride with them occasionally.

pcarrell · 10-31-2012, 08:38 PM

Mighty nice of them!
