New Member, hello!
How are you guys doing? New to Kawasaki's and Nomads, had a few bobbers before but decided to bite the bullet and step up to something bigger and try the bagger style, considering I'm a hefty guy and the extra cc's are nice.
Previously had a 98' and 05' Honda Shadow Bobbers, got a sawzall and some duct tape and bobbed them down a bit. 05' 98' Gonna start a progress thread in appropriate section!

Nice bobbers! They're a lot of fun around town but your going to luv the comfort and storage on that Nomad when doing cross county. Course, there's no law that says a guy can't own two bikes
Welcome to the forum from Mesa, Arizona!

The '05 is a very good looking bobber, I'm sure it sounds good, too!
Welcome to the forums and enjoy your Nomad.
