Gadget ...

emu · 11-02-2008, 09:04 AM

I was wondering how many here are familiar with Gadget ... Possibly one of the foremost authorities on everything to do with the Nomad motorcycle. Is he a member? If not, it would be a wise thing to invite him to join. He is quite an asset to the Kawasaki Riders Forum and his fixit page is top-notch.

Gadget's Fixit Page

If he is a member already ... disregard the delirious mumblings of the new guy (me)... ;)

Gadget is quite aware of our site. Trip has a link to his website from KawaNOW -- look at the top of each page for various links to include KawaNOW Nomad Links.

I also know Gadget has a link to KawaNOW on his -- at least he did as that is how I found KawaNOW

Gadget's site is referenced now and again in various posts.

Thanks for the heads-up though.

Used Gadget's expertise on several projects.
I saved alot of time and hassle from reading about projects on his website before I started them.

Some members here also have contributed tips and procedures to Gadget's site.

Even tho Gadget is not a member here, he is used and referred to numerous times. Gadget and I have talked on several occasions and he has my personal website as well as KawaNOW linked on his page. Can't get it any better than that.

Gadget's page was the first website I visited before getting my Nomad. His site helped me buy my Nad. Gadget's a good guy.

Gave me several ideas and saved me a lot of trouble. One of my bookmarks..

There's no question Gadget has quite a stable of great information on his website. It helped me to ultimately decide to purchase a Nomad in the first place. I too think that is how I stumbled upon this great place!

My 'Gadget' mods include the $10 bicycle drink holder, the Mean Streak clutch spring, and the $10 Walmart handbag - Windsheild bag.. among a few other things.

Great resource.. worth repeating in discussion now and then for newbies to make sure they get on to it.

I too have gained much from Gadget's site. It was one of the first sites I checked out before I got my Nomad, as well as one of my bookmarks.

rickyboy · 11-03-2008, 12:03 AM

Like many here, I originally found Gadgets web page and then found Trips, KawaNOW .
Some of the first mods were from Gadgets pages. For starters, I had to have a trunk like his.... first and foremost. Then that cool garage door opener. Then it was the windshield bag. Then I was adding an accessory power plug for the GPS, and on and on. I'm now using Gadgets pages to do the "Caddmann kit", and the install of a cruise control. Yes this site and Gadgets are two of the most useful sites on the web. IMHO
