How many Nomads out there?

[markusmaximus]

I was at a charity ride this weekend along with nearly 8,000 other bikers. Among the sea of beautiful bikes, most of which were HDs, I made a point to search out the Nomads. Sadly I only saw 5 others. While there were certainly more than what I saw, it was conspicuous to me Nomads are not well represented. This is echoed in my day-to-day observations, having seen only 1 other Nomad during the past month in my daily travels.

One would reasonable expect to see more Nomads out there given how well they are received as a touring cruiser. So, I wonder if my observations hint of a regional anomaly or are representative of a greater whole. What are your observations? How many Nomads do you see routinely? Why, if your observations are similar to mine, are Nomads not more represented?
