Article in Rider Magazine

[waterman]

Just got the July issue in the mail. Opened it up to one of my favorite sections "Favorite Ride". Low and behold, a Nomad is pictured. Don't see that often.

Nice to see a ride written with a Nomad in the article.

The Nomad needs to be featured more in magazines. When I was doing research before I bought mine, I couldn't find any magazine articles on the Nomad. I did most of my research on this message forum.

i think i saw in cycle world magazine not to long ago it listed the Nomad as best voted bagger.
its one gret machine

In one of the magazines for July, they have an article about 2 up riding and the bikes in the accompanying pictures are Nomads. Funny how they show up as bikes in the articles about touring but all the features are H/D and others.

Did you notice in the article about 2 up riding the guys said they wanted the women passengers to be safe so they bought full face helmets and leather this and leather that.
then they show pics of completely the opposite

You must be talking about the one in Motorcycle Cruiser. Take a close look at the pic of the two-up riders in the June 2008 issue; tell me that isn't a mannequin on the pillion!

There is a Nomad featured in the July issue of "Ride Texas" magazine also. In the Lake Fork NE Texas ride story.

Racinchief, I just checked that out. I didn't notice it before but I think you are right. Look at her hands and the facial features. Sure does look like a mannequin.
Maybe he watched the movie "mannequin" and thinks she will come alive when on a bike like the one in the movie. ???

You guys that have the really nice tricked out Nomads (you know who you are) should send in a picture of your Nomad to these magazines. They look a good as any bike I've seen.

[dano]

I did that Bob and here's what I got ??? No Name, no info at
all about me or the bike.
Ride safe,
Dano

[skeeter]

Yeah but Dano, you get to show all your friends your bike in a magazine.
Think of all the people who'll look at the pic and wonder where they can get a good lookin bike like that.
Sometimes got to dig a little deeper to get to the best.

Yeah, I noticed that when I got my issue in this last week. Damn nice looking Nomad too. Speaking of Nomads, I was at the Harley dealer this last weekend taking the classroom part of the MSF course so i can finally get my license (don't tell anyone). The dealership was having their big cookout/test drive/sale event. I was very surprised to see some of the riders pull up on Nomads. No fistfighting or anything.

Dano - I recognized your bike right away when I got the Mag. Thay darn Magazine is just like all the others - Harley - Harley Harley oh and did I mention Harley
It sux

Hopefully some of that's going to change a little when they get flooded with Write-Ups and Pics of our Regional Rallies..... The 2 I'm going to concentrate on are "Rider" & "Motorcyclist"... :)

Motorcyclist is one of the reasons I bought a Nomad. In their column Smart Money they showcased the Nomad and called it the best value in it's class (among other things.) Mostly they seem to focus just on exotics and boy-racer stuff, but I do enjoy the historical pieces and off-beat stuff there from time to time.

Who knows? They just might post a photo of us grizzled old farts if we looked off-beat enough.
