I am glad to report I sold the subject Nomad on 8/13 for $100 below asking price...New owner is from Winston Salem..

I am placing my well-loved Nomad up for sale..at age 74 I am just too old to keep wrestiling with it in parking lots and at crawl speeds...

Great price, good luck with your sale

**coacha** · 08-09-2010, 06:02 PM

Sorry to hear you are selling. Hope you get a bike that is easier for you to handle and still hang out with us...maybe a 900? That is half-a-Nad you know.

bokobob · 08-09-2010, 06:09 PM

'thanks for good wishes..I have a couple of smaller bikes:
05 650 Yama classic silverado
95 Magna V4 750 muscle bike...that's the one that's the most fun to ride adn the smoothest..
Hey if it doesn't sell, I'll just keep it in my riding rotation...every third day..

waterman · 08-09-2010, 06:27 PM

Sorry to hear about that Bob. Very good price. If I didn't have one already I would fly down and drive it home.

**Cajunrider** · 08-09-2010, 07:45 PM

Sorry to hear you are selling Bob but it's very wise that you've recognized your limitations and acted upon that gut feeling. Better to hear that you are selling healthy rather than selling a crashed bike with broken bones. Just don't be a stranger here. Take care and good luck my friend.

petenomad · 08-09-2010, 08:43 PM

When I am 74 I hope I am still riding and am able to choose from multiple bikes. Best of luck on the sale.

bokobob · 08-10-2010, 02:59 PM

Thanks for good wishes....Looks like CrabbyPaddy offers an even bettter deal with all the extras on his....Mabye somebody will say if I come down $400 to cover their travel to pick it up, I will say "ok"...

Being 74 isn't so bad...on some days I am so forgetful that I meet all new friends even among those I know....:-)....

Still best country on earth to live in, IMHO, but those 535 numbskulls in Congress (that's all of 'em) are doing their best to change that radically...(they can keep the change)

Seems like there is a discontinuity between "book" and reality. I have only gotten two bites on mine (two vrocers that crashed their bikes) and they were looking for me to talk money first in terms of what I would take (the old saying goes, he who talks money first, loses)...While I own it outright, I don't want to give it away either. It comes down to a bad economy where people just don't want to spend money. I understand though, make a reasonable offer. So far it hasn't come. Good luck selling it.

bokobob · 08-11-2010, 03:51 PM

Yep, the economy is killing the bike market.....still, there are people on Craigslist asking $10,200 for a more or less stock 08 Nomad with 3500 miles....Low miles are worth something, but not much, per what I've been hearing....a lady called last night to say she'd come tonight and now says she will come tomorrow night....

Those who know buying and selling vehicles realize it;s only iron...

All good wishes..

ponch · 08-11-2010, 04:14 PM

So far the only offer I have gotten was 6750. Man, that hurts.

I passed this on to a friend of mine and they said they called and are going to look at it tomorrow. Good luck with the sale.

retired06 · 08-17-2010, 05:27 PM

I'm the new owner. Drove it home from Gastonia (100 MI OR SO) - I LOVE this thing! No comparison whith my 1100 Dragstar. What a great cruiser and a great guy to do business with! Thanks again Bob for the great deal.
