Best Nomad Mod

My best mod to date by far on my Nomad is the tank-top Harley ignition switch....... I love it each and every time I use it! :)

At the risk of appearing ignorant, what is the difference between that switch and the stock switch?

There's a mod I would love to see here in Texas....and that's sunshine.

I know I shouldn't biatch (especially since you California guys are in a drought)...but it's been raining here almost everyday since the first of June. Every pic I see that Nico posts has sunshine! Can you guys pipe some of that stuff over here? Isn't August supposed to be hot and dry with plenty of sunshine?

Oh...nice mod Nico.

Yea, those chaps make it nice when the temp is cold, which is almost never in California! LOL. OOPS sorry Tripster...

All I want for Christmas is a Mustang seat!!

Starting from the Top:
Willy Max storage bag for the back rack, tank bib with pocket, BreakAway Cruise Control, Phat II risers, front shield bag, tool bag, front fender trim, top side bag rails, lower side bag rails, Airlite Chaps, chrome license plate holder. CWI spot light with the new changed lens. Future considerations will be a hitch, and trailer single wheeled. But I'll need to come out from retirement for that large purchase..... :) I'm not changing the power plant by adding to it or taking away. I'll be keeping the motor etc stock.

Cheers

Sounds nice chef!

blowndodge · 08-04-2007, 11:26 AM

No kidding! Sweet sounding Chef! BTW, thanks for your loyal service in the armed forces. My gratitude will never be enough.

For the same money get a Russell.

oops, forgot to add I have 4" Aeromach risers which made the riding postion far far more comfortable.

ponch · 08-05-2007, 03:11 PM

Oh yeah, put more air in the tires. They tend to be a little low. The bike handles a lot better with 42/40, front rear. :)
