New Voyager in the stable
I currently own a 2001 Nomad with 59k on the clock and alot of upgrades over the years. However, I have felt the need for something newer and with cruise control. I looked at the Goldwing and came very close to purchasing. I found a 2013 White/Silver color combo and I pulled the trigger and bought it today. Now to start making it my own. First thing is handlebars. Anybody got any suggestions and/or photos showing different handlebars.

Congrats on the new purchase . Someday I may break and go vaquero or vayager . There all great bikes . You may want to check out my thread on my bars . I went with the Kromeworks bobber apes because I found them to fit very well and the ones I purchased are quite comfortable . I'm just not totally sure if they'll fit with a fairing . I'm sure someone on here will know .
Now make that bike your own !!  http://vulcanbagger.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43932 Login or Register to Remove Ads |

Try as you may but I don't foresee the new bike being as pretty as the '01 'Mad with the bags and trunk on her. Love the picture taken at the Dragon. Sharp!! Congrads though on the younger girl.

Chuck, I do agree with you on the older girl being a better looking bike. However, the Voyager has it's look about it. I do like all the bells and whistles. I'm looking forward to getting aquainted with new girl.
