Hi everyone, just got a 08 Nomad a week ago and getting around to joining the forum.

After a 15 year hiatus from motorcycles. I'm happy to be riding again. I rode sport bikes for years before the wife and I had kids and put our riding days on hold.

Gotta say, I love the Nomad. The only thing I might want to change is the risers. Im 5'9 175lbs and find im having to lean a little more forward than Id like. the original owner had a 4" straight risers and thought about putting them on to see if they would bring everything back a bit to straighten me up for my commute..

I have a commute into DC 2-3 times a week and its 70 miles one way, which equals about 1 1/2 - 2 hours each way, so I should be racking up a decent amount of road time.
Look forward to a 2 hours commute isn't something in which I'm accustom.
