Finally, there is a website specifically designed to give the Kawasaki Nomad owner and rider as much information as possible...all in one place.

Whether you're a seasoned Nomad rider or if you just took delivery of a Nomad yesterday, this website was created to provide all types of information concerning one of the best motorcycles on the road...the Kawasaki Nomad. There are no dues to pay, no memberships and best of all, no president, vice-president or elections to deal with. KawaNOW is totally free to the public. Every Nomad owner is encouraged to use this site to gain more knowledge into their Nomad. And, every Nomad owner has the opportunity to submit information for publishing. KawaNOW is in the startup phase and is a work in progress. Although some information and data has been posted, users will need to check back often to get the latest in Nomad information. Also, feel free to contribute any information or write-ups concerning the Kawasaki Nomad. Feel free to visit any of the pages of interest located on the left navigation menu bar. As a Nomad owner, you're participation in this website is important, so feel free to suggest any changes or comments.

BORN TO RUN: That's probably the best description of a Kawasaki Nomad. Although the Vulcan Classic is a capable mount, Kawasaki's R&D department rolled up its collective sleeves to create a purposeful traveling cruiser. The Nomad, while resembling the Classic in many ways, occupies a different subcategory. Consider the Vulcan Classic and the Nomad as siblings, each blessed with different strengths which will lead them to embark on different careers. Designed to carry a rider and a passenger with gear over vast stretches of pavement, the Nomad's fashionable, functional, fat look goes deeper than the surface. Using the Classic frame as a starting point, the Nomad chassis incorporates 0.4-inch-diameter tubing throughout much of the frame. The diameter of the steering head is larger, and gussets strengthen this highly stressed point even further. The goal was to reduce frame flex, giving a more stable ride. Moving the steering head forward also aids stability when combined with the new triple-clamp offset. The Nomad is a very stable plateform by which to load and ride to anywhere the imagination comes up with.

This website is dedicated to those who own a Kawasaki Nomad...past, present, future...and worldwide.
