Hello from GA
Hello, all! I'm a brand new rider; I recently retired from the military and fulfilled a post-retirement goal of learning how to ride a motorcycle and then going out and actually buying one. I purchased a 2009 Nomad 1700 for my wife and I to ride; it has a Voyager conversion kit that came installed on it that allows me to have something of a trike experience without getting hit with trike prices...for a newbie, I can honestly say that I wish I'd done this earlier in my life as I try to ride every single day...this is simply awesome!
I'm looking forward to getting tips on riding, apparel, upgrades, and anything else related to my Vulcan Login or Register to Remove Ads |

Welcome from MA.
There is a Kawasaki recal for the ECU on the 2009-2010 models. You can go to Kawasaki's site to the owner section and type in the VIN and see if there is a recall pending on it. It only takes an hour for them to fix and it's free.

Welcome from the great state of Alabama. Nice looking bike, and I am sure you will get many miles of enjoyment out of her.
