Newbie on the loose.............

misunderstood · 02-13-2008, 03:25 PM

......................but I see some familiar faces from the VR forum. In the process of completing a sale of my Boulevard on ebay and will be getting the bike I've dreamed of - the Nomad. Look forward to learning from all the veterans here and helping others as I gain knowledge.

Welcome! Buying the Nomad will be one if the best decisions you ever make.

Yeah but the big ??????? 1500 vs 1600 what are the differences if any in frame size. I'm 6'1" and need my space. Any difference. Tried a search and didn't come up with any discussions, but I'm sure it's been hashed out before.

Not sure if there is any difference in frame size between 1500/1600. I only know that with a set if risers and highway pegs even the tall guys can get pretty comfortable...or so I hear. I'm only 5'10" but I have plenty of room to stretch.

audiogooroo, thanks for the response. Thought I saw someone make a reference to the 1500 being more comfrotable for him and he was ..............................shorter then me.:) Love the green on those 99 models.

Misunderstood
First , Welcome to Kawanow. Great web site and lots of information. I see that you live in Knoxville, not too far away.
By the way, a local dealer has a 2006 Nomad for sale, $9800. I saw it a few days ago and it's green/silver and sharp.
Hope this link works

Thanks Shep. I'll assume your in Nashville. Several dealers around here and I'm considering 1 a member here has over in Asheville, NC 2 hrs away. Thanks for the headsup on that one. Dave

Welcome. I don't know squat about the Nomad, but as a newbie I have done a little reading and the few things that I keep hearing is that the Nomad has the most comfortable OEM seat of all the cruisers. I have had and ridden several different cruisers and I am convinced that the Nomad is the best hands down. It is the most comfortable and easily the best value; no, you can't go wrong with a Nomad. Black is the fastest color though.
