Did you move up to a 1600 from a 1500?

dantama · 03-19-2008, 10:38 AM

I'm surprised at how many people own a 1600 nomad vs a 1500. I'm just trying to get an overall picture of how we got here.

What happened to the 6 years worth of 1500's out there? They aren't finding there way to this site in very large numbers.

Didn't nico go from a 1500 Nomad to an 800 vulcan? I don't see that option listed??

Dan,

My option isn't available.

I started with a 1500 then purchased a 1600. I currently have both.

However, in all fairness, I will be selling the 1500 after I move all the compatible bling to the 1600.

My first Vulcan was an 800 Classic, and I had a GPz-750 before that...

There are plenty of 1500's around, Maybe they just don't want anyone to know.

One of my closest buddies had his 1500 Nomad stolen (and right after we'd done lots of work on it too, including Baggers, TFI, Caddmann Kit, tires, brakes, driveshaft, etc. etc. etc. :'( )

He bought a new 1600 Nomad when he got the insurance settlement, but says he liked the 1500 better. Something about the comfort and handling.

He's a tall, skinny guy, and not too heavy at about 145 lbs, so that might be a factor.

Nico's a fat dumpy looking troll of a bi-pedal humanoid. He doesn't fit any motorcycle.

The 1600 is my first Nomad.
