I bought my "03 Vol last year with 8300 on it.Some people like to look at them in the garage. It's always been a Florida bike. 24/7/365 riding season. Go figure

And all bets are off now...I found a bike & will be taking possession of it tomorrow night!

I found a beautiful 2000 Nomad 1500. 21k miles. Owned by a mechanic. He bought it for his son, fixed it up (rebuilt carb, all new fluids, new cables, new brakes, new battery & fresh oil) and his son said he wants a sport bike. So they're selling the Nomad to get him a sport bike. He's asking $3995 but told me on the phone he's flexible with it. I'm hoping $3500.

Isn't she beautiful???

Yes, it looks beautiful (and familar) Hope you get it, enjoy. The only negative on the 2000 is the tank size, wish it had the larger tank but that is the only negative for me.

Congrats on the bike. Was going to recommend the Kawi. Always liked those bikes, never had one. A friend had one of the Victorys. His was first year of production and one of the first three thousand. Had a few issues with it. He sold it for a BMW. Believe he told me there were tranny issues with that model. I rode it a few times and then for a solid week. Solid feel but ergos didn't fit me at all. Newer Vics are much nicer.

Great catch SahZooKee.

Awesome find, have fun on it

Looks like a keeper, good luck with it!

SahZooKee · 12-13-2012, 03:54 PM

Thanks everyone! My ride will be here any minute then I'm heading south to get this baby!

I love that I'm going to a bike that I am familiar with. The 1500 Classic & 1500 Nomad are very similar, and mine was black too, so there's going to be some deja vu...just hopefully not with electrical (or any other) issues!!!

Enjoy. New bikes are always such a blast!
