Ummm, I like it but it looks like they are copying other bikes, wish I could read it.

See what bitching and moaning gets you. Or is this a case of the squeaky wheel?

No guard on the back. The area around the engine does look less cluttered. Any one ridden a bike with a windshield like that? How well does it work? (not trying to hi-jack the thread ) The bags don't look like they open from the top, maybe from the side?

Wow! Tourer meets muscle bike. Blacked out. I like it. Wonder if it will be released in the states?

I see hinges on the bottom of the bags.

I don't like the top open bags on the '09 and '10. "One" of the reasons I like the look of the Nomad is the side open bags.

Actually I ride my bikes for years, then after they have been gone thru by a mechanic, one of my sons gets it. This 1500 goes to the second born Bill. He is waiting patiently. ;)

They are the same bags that are on your bike. Kawa is going old school. And I have rode a Street Glide with a chopped shield, along with the Victory Cross Country. Usually you get some buffeting, but it is the price to pay for the look.

I like it! I really like that they have gone back to the "classic" Nomad bags. I won't be in the market for a few years, but thats one I'll be looking for on ebay when I do get the itch for a new ride.

That is a sharp bike. I guess they had some old nomad bags laying around. :)
